What an amazing tour! A great insight into the folklore and superstitions of Napoli! Answered all my questions and I was even gifted a lottery ticket and a lucky red horn (a symbol of luck in Napoli!) The tour was in English but I really enjoyed the music and singing provided which was all in Italian. Thank you so much for a great tour, it was like walking through Napoli with knowledgable friends!
