The programme

The first stop of the tour is the village of Posillipo where we can enjoy a splendid view of the Gulf of Naples from a rooftop terrace.
Then we proceed to the monumental area, where we can admire the major attractions of Naples, such as the impressiveMaschio Angioino, the castle built 700 years ago by Charles of Anjou and later a sumptuous residence of kings and viceroys, the San Carlo Theatre, one of the most beautiful in Europe, and Galleria Umberto I shopping gallery, built between 1887 and 1890 to redevelop the city.
Cross Piazza del Plebiscito, one of the most beautiful and famous squares in Naples. With its 25,000 square metres it is among the largest squares in Italy and so is often chosen to host major events.
Here you can admire the fabulous Royal Palace, one of the four residences used by the Royal House of Bourbon during the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and the Church of St. Francis of Paola, whose facade, preceded by a portico of six Ionic columns, affords us a spectacular sight.
