“Secret Naples” photography tour

A visual journey through alleyways, courtyards and details you won’t find on postcards

Naples is a city that breathes images: not only famous monuments and grand piazzas, but everyday scenes, unexpected colours, surprising perspectives and hidden corners that speak a language of their own. The “Secret Naples” Photography Tour is designed for those who wish to see the city with fresh eyes, capture iconic views and discover its most authentic side through the lens of a camera.

This experience—led by professional photographers and expert local guides—takes place בעיקר in the historic centre, the Spanish Quarters (Quartieri Spagnoli) and other areas where daily life blends seamlessly with history. Here, a visual itinerary unfolds, weaving together ancient architecture and human gestures, brightly painted doors and façades with the long shadows of narrow streets, and glimpses of the Gulf of Naples, revealing the city as a vast open-air stage.

What makes this tour unique

  • Off-the-beaten-track itineraries
    Beyond the grand squares, you will explore the labyrinthine alleyways of the Spanish Quarters, secret courtyards and striking perspectives framed by intensely coloured buildings. Here, contrasts and light become visual stories.

  • Urban photography and street portraiture
    Learn how to capture authentic moments of daily life, architectural details and spontaneous scenes—from laundry hanging between balconies to wrought-iron plaques, from stone staircases climbing towards the sky to expressive faces crossing your frame.

  • Composition and light techniques
    With the guidance of a professional photographer, you will deepen your understanding of Mediterranean light, natural-light photography and the viewpoints that transform the everyday into a memorable image.

  • Iconic districts and hidden corners
    From the Historic Centre, with its ancient decumani and secluded courtyards, to the Spanish Quarters, where past and present intertwine across mural-covered walls, and panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Bay of Naples.

When to join

The tour is available year-round, but the most evocative light for striking photographs is often found in the early morning or late afternoon, when the sun casts long shadows and warm tones across the ancient stone.
