Welcome to an enchanting journey through Naples with our Hop On Hop Off Naples tour, the perfect way to discover a city brimming with history, culture, and captivating secrets!
Embark on an adventurous exploration of the fascinating streets of the City of the Sun aboard our Hop On Hop Off Naples bus. With your 24-hour ticket, you'll have the freedom to discover the vibrant heart of the city on the Red Line, immersed in the timeless charm of the historic center, or to soak in the breathtaking beauty of the waterfront on the Blue Line.
Imagine yourself navigating the narrow, picturesque streets of the old town, with its ancient alleys, lively squares, and artistic treasures. Breathe in the romantic atmosphere that permeates every corner as our bus provides you with unforgettable views.
And when the allure of the sea beckons, hop on the Blue Line and surrender to the charms of the waterfront. Enjoy the refreshing sea breeze, admire the stunning Gulf of Naples, and let yourself be captivated by the gentle rhythm of the waves.
But the adventure doesn't stop there! Your tour now includes a visit to the magnificent Sant'Anna dei Lombardi. This impressive complex, also known as Santa Maria di Monteoliveto, is a treasure trove of art and history. Originally founded in the early 14th century, it houses remarkable examples of Renaissance art and architecture.
During the visit, you'll take a dive into the Renaissance, going back an astonishing five hundred years!
You will have the chance to admire the sculptural group by Guido Mazzoni, Lamentation over the Dead Christ, at a truly unique moment: a conservation restoration that, in addition to revealing the construction techniques, is also bringing to light polychrome details that had been lost for centuries.
The harmony of the 15th-century sculptures by Antonio Rossellino and Benedetto da Maiano will amaze you with their masterful modeling and refined use of perspective.
And after greeting a mischievous little figure sculpted by a teenage Michelangelo, you’ll be left breathless beneath the vaulted ceiling of the Sacristy, frescoed by Giorgio Vasari: here, a dynamic display of powerful human forms, mythological figures, and geometric shapes conceals a fascinating symbolism—unveiled for you through our audio guide.
You can board the bus at your convenience, hopping on and off as you please.
Please note that the last bus departs at 4:30 PM, so we recommend starting your tour by 1:30 PM to fully experience both lines.
