Naples Maradona Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Piazza Municipio, located in the heart of the city. From here, we'll begin our journey into the past. Over the course of this tour, we'll delve into the history of this extraordinary city, exploring the most famous streets and landmarks which have borne witness to centuries of drama.

One of our first stops will be at the Galleria Umberto I, a building whose construction commenced in 1887. This structure is seen as the cornerstone of the risanamento - a time during which Naples sought to reinvent itself, lasting until World War I. We'll also pass by the San Carlo Theatre, which is thought to be the oldest continuously active opera venue in the world, having been opened in 1737.

After seeing the beautiful Piazza Plebiscito, we'll begin our ascent to the Quartieri Spagnoli via the funicular railway steps. We'll walk through narrow, cobblestone streets, past palaces and Baroque façades until we arrive at the mural of Diego Armando Maradona.

This mural was created as a tribute to the legendary Argentinian footballer, who left a mark on SSC Napoli and the history of football. This mural embodies the passion, pride, and gratitude the city of Naples holds for the 'Pibe de Oro' (golden child).

After 2 hours of exploration, we'll conclude our tour.
