Naples: Culinary Backstreets - Secrets of Naples Food Tour Culinary Secrets of Backstreet Naples

Discover Naples on a guided food tour. Taste local specialties like pizza, limoncello, and caponata, and explore the city's vibrant neighborhoods and bustling market streets.
Begin your food tour in a third-generation pasticceria for a Neapolitan coffee and sfogliatella, a pastry first created in a Catholic convent near Naples, followed by the famous baba au rum. Plunge into the traditional food shops, stopping for a quick limoncello in a most unusual place before a snack of classic, seasonal Napoli street food and, of course, pizza in more than one form.

Move beyond the walls into a very different area teeming with local life and market streets. Stop into a baccaleria, where salt cod is king, before sampling the healing waters of Vesuvius at a kiosk in the market. Visit a family-run bakery, where you will make your own Neapolitan caponata, a salad made with the bakery’s special bread, called freselle, mozzarella, and heirloom piennolo tomatoes.

Shopkeepers, bakers, olive sorters, home cooks, vendors, and the last traditional sign painter of the market are all part of the warm community you’ll be welcomed into. On this walk within and without the city walls, spend the day experiencing the everyday food traditions served up with the superlative hospitality that is the hallmark of the Neapolitano.
