Full Description
This full-day Catholic tour of Naples begins with a visit to the Naples Cathedral (Cattedrale di San Gennaro), home to the relics of San Gennaro, the city’s patron saint. The cathedral is famous for the miracle of the liquefaction of San Gennaro's blood, which occurs twice a year. Its Baroque interior, adorned with chapels and altars, provides a space for reflection and devotion.
Next, you’ll visit the Church of Gesù Nuovo, a stunning example of Renaissance and Baroque architecture. The church, with its unique stone façade, is dedicated to the Jesuit order and contains beautiful artwork and religious relics, reflecting its significance in Naples’ Catholic history.
Afterward, head to the Church of Santa Chiara, a beautiful Gothic church and monastery, where the peaceful cloister decorated with colorful majolica tiles offers a serene retreat. The church is also the resting place of several Spanish monarchs.
For lunch, the guide will suggest local favorites such as Pizza Margherita at L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele, or sfogliatella (a local pastry) at Pasticceria Scaturchio in the historic center, giving you an authentic taste of Naples.
In the afternoon, you’ll have the option of visiting either the Church of the Girolamini, a Baroque masterpiece with stunning frescoes, or the Donna Regina Complex, which houses the Church of Santa Maria Donna Regina and offers insight into Naples' medieval history.
The tour concludes with a visit to the Monastery of San Martino, offering panoramic views of Naples and showcasing a rich collection of religious art and artifacts.
Optional services include pick-up from your hotel, port, or airport, making the tour convenient and accessible.
