About us

Ciao Naples is a Naples-based tour operator specializing in guided tours and immersive experiences across Italy, with a strong focus on archaeology, art, and local traditions.

We operate throughout Campania and Southern Italy, offering walking tours as well as experiences with private transportation for solo travelers and small groups.

If you’re looking for something more personal, we can design a fully tailor-made itinerary built around your interests, pace, and travel plans—so your time here feels truly unique and memorable.

Our story

The name “Ciao Naples” comes from the idea of welcoming every guest with the warm, informal greeting that is part of Naples’ everyday life—a simple “ciao” that opens the door to extraordinary discoveries.

Ciao Naples was founded in 2022 by Davide Lombardo, after five years of experience as a guide, driver, and tour leader, together with a small team passionate about art, history, and food.

Our journey so far

What started as a love for the cultural heritage of Campania soon grew: in 2023, we expanded our team with specialized guides and trusted partners in the food & beverage world; in 2024, we introduced transfer services to Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast, and Caserta, with comfort and safety as priorities. In 2025, we strengthened our operations and refined our experiences even further, so we’re ready for the 2026 season with an even higher level of service and attention to detail.

Today, with hundreds of 5‑star reviews on platforms like TripAdvisor, Ciao Naples is a trusted reference for authentic, locally run tours in Naples and Campania.

Why choose us

Every tour is shaped by our deep knowledge of the area and more than five years of hands‑on experience in the industry.

Even though we’re a young company (founded in 2022), we deliver: tailor‑made itineraries shaped around your needs; certified guides who share the real stories of Naples and Campania with passion; professional drivers for safe transfers; daily departures for small groups; and carefully planned routes that uncover hidden spots and authentic traditions.

Our excellent reviews and quality certificates reflect our commitment to making every experience truly memorable.
