All the family can soak up the sun and the beauty of Naples whilst learning about the folklore, traditions, art and classic cuisine of one of Italy’s most interesting cities.
Sightseeing with young ones can be difficult; waiting in long queues to eventually see places and artefacts they don’t understand. With this tour however the children are the focus of all of the activity and with privileged, reserved admission to historic sites there is no tiresome waiting in long, boring lines. We have an array of interactive learning tools, pop-up books, iPad games and trivia, all tailored to explore areas that will stimulate children’s curiosity.
According to tradition, the Greco-Roman roots of Naples go back to the islet of Megaride and the Greek city of Parthenope. The children will hear tales of Virgil, a magical egg and an enchanted castle by the sea. They will tour the oldest opera house in Europe, the famous Teatro di San Carlo and walk the largest square in Naples, the impressive Piazza del Plebiscito. This famous piazza houses the majestic Royal Palace and the Church of San Francesco di Paolo. The guide will tell the children stories about Naples’ royal families who once lived in the palace and teach them about Neapolitan art, architecture, politics and religion through the ages in a way that will truly bring the subjects to life.
Our guide is accompanied on the tour by his clever puppet Pulcinella who will delight all of the family. Pulcinella is always a “hit” with the children as he engages them in the interactive learning experience; discovering together Naples history, delighting in the quaint shops and marvelling at the magnificent sights.
