Hello everyone! I am Valeria, Neapolitan, born and raised in the Spanish neighborhood and founder of Around with A Local. In love with Naples and a passionate student of its history, I love sharing who I am and what I know with travelers from all over the world. Graduated from the Oriental of Naples in Languages and Cultures, then I moved to Turin to specialize with a master's degree in International Communication for Tourism. A tireless traveler, I have dedicated my educational career to language learning and tourism. I love visiting places far from my native culture: That's why with Around with a Local we try to create a true cultural and human exchange between travelers. Our goal is to shift attention from classic mass tourism to a more intimate and conscious tourism, aimed at creating an exchange between knowledge and a deep understanding of the places visited. The dialogues between traveler and guide are the key to an experience that looks at the entire territory. The Around with a Local team is two friends, me and Joanita, both born and raised in those neighborhoods that we want to show you!
Hello everyone! I'm Valeria and I want to invite you to get to know the Rione Sanità with me, who grew up in the heart of Naples! During my experiences we will focus on the history of the places, but also on the people and characters that make Naples a special city . There will be a way to talk to people and I will try to make you understand the Neapolitan mentality, analyzing the history of the city.
The Rione Sanità is one of the most evocative popular neighborhoods in Naples! It contains splendid eighteenth-century architecture, street art by international artists, popular markets and shops, sacred and profane, art workshops, secret gardens ... There really is everything!
We will cross its main street where the history, traditions and popular culture from antiquity to the present day will be narrated, with a careful look at everything that is also the urban redevelopment and social redemption of the entire neighborhood.
Starting from the StreetArt of this centuries-old district, the stories of illustrious characters will be told, representatives of the most authentic and true "Neapolitan style".
Among history, art, theater, street art, you will visit:
This tour goes beyond the classic mass tourism, full of anecdotes and stories of people who have lived in those places and who have seen them change and evolve. They are authentic and personalized experiences!
For an unconventional tour, fun for young and old, follow me!
We will meet in front of the Porta San Gennaro, where the Marino cafeteria is located.
