Naples is not only a vibrant city by day, but also offers plenty of options for nightlife. From indulging in the tradition of aperitivo to unique dinner experiences to special nighttime sightseeing, there is something different to do every night. Here’s what you need to know about Naples after dark.
Dinner Experiences
To sample a range of traditional Neapolitan tastes, book an evening food-themed walking tour. Visit family-owned eateries and street vendors with a local guide leading the way. Instead of a traditional dining experience, these food tours involve hours of grazing on pizza, pasta, pastries, and more. Naples is also full of award-winning pizzerias where you can try authentic Neapolitan pizza.
Night Sightseeing
The city streets take on a different glow after dark. Several tour options highlight the atmosphere of Naples at night, including a guided tour with a pizza dinner, a scenic boat trip along the coastline, and a nighttime visit to the active volcano Solfatara complete with a wine tasting.
Bar Hopping
Before dinner, Italians enjoy aperitivo, or going out for drinks and snacks. This sunset tradition elongates an evening, and drinks are designed to stimulate the appetite. The most popular pizzerias and other eateries often have lines, so be prepared to put your name down and barhop until a table becomes available.
