Naples Food Tasting Tour by Vintage Vespa

We think this is without doubt the best way to see Naples: travelling on the back of a stylish Vespa scooter, as a guide takes you around some of the city’s most renowned foodie hotspots for tastings, and even hands-on lessons. Visit the kitchens of professional chefs, pastry laboratories, a historic chocolate factory still using its vintage machinery to churn out sublime Neapolitan ice cream, and the Grand Cafe Gambrinus, once a favoured locale of poets and writers. Along the way, you’ll pause to take in stunning views and must-see landmarks, while your driver nimbly scoots through the traffic. Such fun.

This Naples foodie tour is a great way to discover the city’s proud culinary heritage. In Vomero, try a "coppo di frittura napoletana" (a cone of small fried food) in the city’s oldest fried-food shop; sample superb Neapolitan sausage and Mozzarella di bufala campana, served with a glass of local wine, sfogliatella ) the famous Neapolitan pastry; the quintessential espresso coffee, and then enjoy a fascinating private pizza class with a local chef, learning how to knead, flavour and bake your own Neapolitan pizza, a genuine Italian cultural icon and the dish that all New York pizzas stem from.
