Bourbon Tunnel (Galleria Borbonica) Tours and Activities

Explore the underground tunnels beneath Naples with this entrance ticket to Galleria Borbonica. Learn about the history of the tunnels including their origins in the 1850s and how they were used as a military hospital during World War 2. Descend 33 yards beneath the surface to see an air bomb shelter, statues from the Fascist period, and historic cars.

In little more than a century of Kingdom, the Bourbons, have made Naples the second most populous and richest city in Europe. The first city to have running water in the houses, the first to make the separate collection, the first to introduce free vaccination against smallpox for its inhabitants. How not to start with the story of the majestic Royal Palace, built with precious marble and inside, the entrance staircase defined by Montesquieu, the most beautiful staircase in the world, and the San Carlo Theatre, the first opera house in Europe among the most beautiful in the world. After the walk along the Caracciolo promenade, the tour ends with a visit to the Bourbon Gallery, a gigantic though underground place of unique charm, where you can live an unforgettable experience. We can decide whether to take a walk to discover the many tunnels, or the desire to face the unique experience of crossing an underground canal in a raft between fun and amazement.

Naples is a sprawling city, with highlights spread out and hard to see in a single day via public transportation or on foot. With this driving tour of the city, you’ll take in the most important landmarks and monuments without getting frustrated and footsore. Relax in an air-conditioned minivan while you visit top attractions like Castel Nuovo, the San Carlo Opera House, and Piazza del Gesù Nuovo.
