Not only experiential events from dawn until dusk, but also museums and monuments open to the public, along with a large number of shops, restaurants and bars. In this very hot summer, many tourists have chosen Naples, which confirms itself as a welcoming city not only with a good offer of events and services, but also with tourist tutors in the info points and around by bicycle and toy car”.
