See Naples... and then you go back!!! - During our first visit to Naples we had not been able to visit the Chapel of Sansevero, in this last holiday we could not miss this experience. The guide Daniela was fantastic, very engaging both in telling us the story of the chapel and in the tour of the center. The Veiled Christ is really suggestive. Experience not to be missed in a Neapolitan holiday. Also recommended for families with children: they will be enraptured by the history of the city. Roger and Angela

Excellent tour by very knowledgeable guide - Gianni was a very knowledgeable guide who provided interesting details not only of the Pieta but also of the crypts and various other aspects of the museum. In the continuation of the tour after the museum, we visited several churches for which Gianni provided interesting historical details. Definitely a well done, worthwhile tour!

I was kind of surprised... - I was kind of surprised that everything was in one room. I guess i wasn't expecting that. However! This is the third place I have been to where pictures do not capture what your eyes can see. It was breathtaking. There were many pieces other than the famous three that were just as, if not more, impressive. Be prepared to keep your memory sharp, as there are no pictures of any kind allowed inside. The official gift shop at the exit is REALLY reasonably priced, so wait till you get there to buy your souvenirs. Our guide kept us in there a little longer than he should have and it was funny to watch the byplay with him and the staff. Definitely all in fun. After the cappella, we walked about the historic area and got an education on the various buildings and obelisks in the squares. It was an all around great tour.

Beautiful statues and building but an Audio guide might be a better choice. - When booking experiences like this you might not get the best tour guide. Our tour guide did his best but had only okay English. Giannis wasn't easy to understand and he lacked the English vocabulary for description of things. With extreme concentration I was able to learn a few details about what I was seeing but I'm sure I misunderstood details. The only plus with a guide is the ability to ask questions.
