Hello! I am Emanuele and I was born and live in Naples, I am deeply in love with the whole gulf of which I consider myself a child, I love to get in touch with the contrasting and fragmented realities that characterize the Neapolitan area and in particular my beloved city, just as I love very much travel and discover cultures and customs different from mine.
I have been working in tourism and public relations for 10 years, and I have always felt the need to deviate from the way of doing mass tourism, preferring a vision more oriented towards "travelers" rather than "tourists", putting in contact the people with the different colors of local realities and listen to the thousand voices and the thousand stories they tell.
I am not a formal guide but rather I consider myself a cultural mediator between the traveler and the world I know, in order to help him feel part of the reality that surrounds him so that he can touch it with his hand, and experience it, rather than looking at it from the outside as in a shop window. I also believe that this is the best way to make everyone's experience more informal, spontaneous and genuine.
So what are you waiting for? Are you coming for a friendly walk with me?
This is exactly what I wanted: great information about the culture and history of Naples made this a very worthwhile experience. All authentic and all sbout the ❤️ and soul of the people. Highly recommended‼️
És un dels millors tours que he fet mai! El recomano al 200%. Cada vegada costa més trobar guies que t'expliquin la part autèntic i crítica de la ciutat. Gràcies, ha estat un plaer!!!
If you want to truly experience Naples and its people, look no further and book this tour with Emanuele, I highly recommend it! You will leave the tour feeling like a citizen of the Spanish quarters, and you will have avoided the classic tours that push you towards a version of the city that has been "manufactured" for tourists and profit. In addition to the amazing encounters with artisans, we had enlightening discussions with Emanuele about the history of the city, as well as its current situation, which left us thinking even after the tour was finished. One last thing: his recommendations for places to eat are some of the best we ever received from a GuruWalk tour!
I kind of knew what to expect from reading former reviews, but I was still amazed by how much information Emanuele managed to pack into 3 hours, without it ever feeling repetitative or being overwhelmed by the information. I guess I agree in a lot of ways with his critiques and being from Vienna I know what it means to live somewhere that has adapted to tourism completely. I enjoyed the walk immensely, and would recommend it to anyone that loves having context as well as insights and engaging with the multifaceted structure of society as a whole and Napoli in particular. Thank you Emanuele ;)
