Underground Naples Tour

Are you intrigued by the idea of exploring the depths of Naples? This tour offers you the chance to delve into a concealed aspect of the city by navigating the extensive network of tunnels and wells hidden beneath the Spanish quarter.

Tour Overview

We will gather at Vico Sant'Anna di Palazzo, 52 at the scheduled time to commence this expedition beneath the streets of Naples. Prepare yourself for a fascinating journey into the past!

Accessing the subterranean world of Campania's capital involves descending stairs that take us down over 40 meters. This descent leads us into a maze of tunnels and cisterns that date back over 2,400 years to the Greco-Roman era!

This venture reveals a previously undisclosed side of Naples, an enigmatic underground realm that served as an air-raid shelter during World War II.

As we navigate through the depths, numerous mysteries and legends connected with these tunnels will come to light, which historically provided water to the city's inhabitants. Additionally, we will encounter antique furnishings and various 19th-century artifacts, since these tunnels also functioned as a dumping site in the past.

After an hour of exploration, we will ascend back to the surface to conclude our tour near Via Chiaia, just a short distance from where we began.
