March 9, 2022 Deane Carmody

Romantic Naples, two hours south of Rome, is the largest city in southern Italy. It has some of the world's best opera and theater houses and is often called an open-air museum, due to its many historic statues and monuments. Join families on promenade as the sun sets on the Bay of Naples. View finds from Pompeii and Herculaneum, destroyed by Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D., at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale or revel in the art and architecture of Museo Cappella Sansevero, built in the late 1500s.

Not far from the historic center of Naples is one of the most fascinating places in the city, it is the Fontanelle Cemetery. The cemetery was built inside an ancient tuff quarry when in 1656, because of the Plague, the bones of a large part of the Neapolitan population were thrown away, which could not resist the serious epidemic. Over the years many others were added, leading to the birth of the cult of "pezzentelle souls", to whom the people turned to obtain graces and interecessions. To accompany you there will be a guide who will tell you the legends that hover around the characters guarded in the cave. After this mystical experience you can take a walk to the Sanità district, whose name derives from the ancient belief that the area was rich in natural and supernatural "salubritas". You will walk through the crowded alleys of the neighborhood and staying in contact with the Neapolitan people, going to the discovery of one of the most beautiful and hidden corners of the city.

As a travel agent, I've been on many, many tours, and I'm typically hard to please -- But Raphael Tours did an outstanding job for my family of six, especially my 80-plus year old in-laws -- the driver was patient, knowledgeable and efficient, and the private guide through the ruins of Pompeii was truly outstanding -- not only incredibly knowledgeable but also very entertaining -- this was a great day for all of us and we are very appreciative of Raphael's efforts for us.

Mario is a great guide and took us to some fantastic spots for tasting some of the typical food of Naples. He is so very knowledgeable about history and culture that the tour was much more than a food tour. I highly recommend you take one of Mario’s tours when visiting Naples.

Nico was out tour guide. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He was not like previous tour guides that I have had experience with in such that he did not push us towards any particular restaurant or stores. Rather, he gave us general advice and told us which places were not recommended and why. We felt that he had our best interests at heart and not looking for kickbacks like other tour guides.

We had an amazing time exploring pompei! Rafaelle is very knowledgeable and could answer all our questions. He also was super flexible when we had to move the tour with half an hour last minute. When we have the opportunity to travel to pompei we will most definitely book a live tour with rafaelle! We can’t wait.
