Thank you for pizza, Naples! We are eternally grateful!
I am from Napoli(Naples) and we can eat THE best pizza in THE world 👍
Actually pizza is originally from Egypt
livem hahahaha its a joke 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
@@livem7678 nope
@@gianmattia13 Maybe the name „Pizza”, but the origins are trulry in the ancient Egypt
I’m 17 now but when I was younger I watched Rick Steve on PBS because I didn’t have cable and I’m kind of happy about that I learned instead of being turned into a zombie. This show awakened my wanderlust thank you Rick Steve.
I love travel shows Too, always learning new thing and inspired my bucket list . I Have been to Napoli 3 times, it's very affordable compared to other Italian cities
Have you Watch a different type of travel show hosted by Jonathan Legg ? He's a bit extreme , his show is " THE ROAD LESS TRAVEL " on cable, the previews are on youtube
Me too
Zombie 😂😂👌
Nice comment
Love it! Stay Curious! Don't waste your life doing what everyone else says is correct. You only get one life. My daughter is 11 and I tell her the same. I wish I had begun traveling when I was much younger... Look into passive income opportunities that will allow you to see the world instead of being stuck in an office every day
I am from neapoli from Greece 🇬🇷 greetings to Italy 🇮🇹
I went to Naples in October 2019 for 1 day. The best Pizza and probably the nicest people I've have seen in The World
I'm Italian and Napoli is not Italy!!
@@cr7juve7 then what is it ?
@@cr7juve7 ..So what you are saying is that Napoli is better than Italy! It's "See Naples and die" not see Italy and die.
Salerno Merda
Cr7 Juve your just jealous because your city is ugly af
I think Rick Steves is a national treasure.
I finally did it! I just returned from Italy yesterday. I did visit Naples and of course Pompeii. What an impressive country Italy is! I totally loved it and can't wait to go back. Thanks, Steve, for all your good advice.

I was stationed in Naples in the mid-1980s for three years. I still miss it to this day. It's a beautiful city in all its color, craziness, vivaciousness, and zest for love and life. Someday, I will return to see it again.
Mi manca Napoli sempre, ma spero a vederla nel futuro.
Grazie and ciao ciao!

Don't hesitate...just go enjoy your life 😀✈
Good luck
Because I take care of someone who needs me to live with them. This person is someone who can't be left alone for more than a few hours at a time. I do plan to go back one day. Thanks for the kind words though.

Are you Italian?
I lived there in the mid eighties for nearly 5 years. I was reminded of how lucky as an American kid I was to live amongst culture, history and amazing cuisine. I lived in a beach resort town about 25 minutes north of Napoli in the south end of Pinetamare at Fontana Bleu. My parents were avid travelers and always took me on vacation. I remember historical things that would easily be forgotten reading a text book in class. I knew the average kid my age back home would never have this opportunity. I think most military kids who live in exotic places overseas are handed this lottery ticket of opportunity. It was a short trip from the NATO base to the Mergellina rail station and about 10 to 15 min to Piazza Garibaldi. I miss the markets, trips so Sorrento, Ischia, Capri. I was always in the moment.
I am from Ethiopia and I love your show very much. I believe that God will open doors for me to see Europe .
I wonder whether people who live in old cities and towns realise how lucky they are ; imagine being part of history daily .Thanks Rick , these places look different and more interesting through your eyes .
I just turned 49 and when I was just a kid I used to watch him on PBS all the time. It's great to see his videos again. They are timeless....
We just visited Naples, Pompeii and Capri and we really loved them all. Naples is so charming. Pompeii is so beautiful ...
Such a magnificent, lively and warm city. I've been there twice. Missing it.
From Russia with love.
Te amo, Napoli.
Thank You so much! I'm from Naples,italy📍but i love Russia infinitely thank you very much I love Russia Kisses from Naples💙
Rick steves has the best job
It's not all crazy. You can enjoy an exquisite limoncello with a sfogliatella (the other two great but gems of Neapolitan food often overshadowed by pizza) overlooking picturesque if not breath taking scenery. Italy. What a country from head to toe.
Rick steves a classic ...equally classic and lively naples....
Love Rick Steves. Naples, Italy is just beautiful. Thanks
Europe is full historic work and mesmerizing Greenery. I love EuRope.
LOVE ITALY, especially the south
I love myself and whiskey
I'm from the north and in my opinion the best is the centre
I spent 2 days in Naples as a stopover in Italy between Rome and the Amalfi coast and I absolutely adore it. The plan originally was just 1 day but I felt I had to extend it so I could see more. And I still want to go back!
The soul and spirit of Napoli is amazing, love it.
Me too! I just visited Amalfi coast, and I stayed in Naples one night, and I like it. Wonderful city for shopping Italian made clothing and shoes!
Love this show! In naples dont try to find the fancy restaurants. Find the pizzerias in the side alleys with plastic chairs, the food here is cheap and superb in quality. The people in Naples are so kind and willing to help a lost tourist (do beware of con artists and pickpockets). The thing that surprised me the most is the vast amount of Cultural heritage this city has produced across almost every age past!
Do they have more than two kinds of pizza there?
Rick Steves keeps opening the doorways of Europe, sharing experiences that very few ever have the chance to accumulate. Many thanks for the generosity and enthusiasm.
I loved my stay in Napoli, every one I met was friendly, down to Earth, and made me feel at home. I found the local Italian people warm and genuine, no BS, just real nice Italian people, I can not wait to go back. As a guy, I must admit too, the ladies have the most beautiful eyes , skin, and looks to go as I have ever seen. Ive travelled around the world quite a bit, but love Italy the most.
My grandma and her family are from Naples ❤️ I can’t wait to travel there one day and meet the rest of her family 🖤🥀
I love that Rick also shadows locals when he crosses the road 😂 low key the best advice here
I found Naples to be actually much safer than Rome. We were in Naples for a week travelling from Venice and then continuing to Rome. At first, I thought that I will die in there in an hour, but it didn't take long for me to start liking that place. I fell in love with Napoli one evening when we went out for a pizza(going to Napoli and not tasting their exquisite world's most original pizza is a sin) and, by a total coincidence, Napoli, their football team, was playing that evening. It was just gorgeous how the whole city stopped and watched big screens in all those restaurants. Just an unique experience. And the city is very tourist-friendly, it is very cheap, we got an accommodation in the very center of the city center(right on the street of Spaccanapoli) in a beautiful old house for a very good price, a price I couldn't dream of getting for a city center place even in my hometown.
But in the Rome, the very first day we were there I got my ID wallet stolen... I got no money there, because ever since I got it stolen in my hometown, I wear two separate wallets - one for ID cards and stuff and another one for money and credit cards that I usually keep literally on my heart - in the inner pocket of my jacket or a shirt, so the thief just threw it on a ground when escaping and I got it back, but anyway...
One almost surreal scenery in Naples occured to us when we were walking down the street to our accomodation and we met a crowd of people carrying a coffin and shouting something about stopping a mafia. We found out it was a funeral of a boy that was killed by some gang two days ago... Absolutely surreal. But regardless of that, we didn't really feel threatened, people there, even though some of them looked like mafians, were really helpful and nice. We also took a break from our sightseeing to go to one of their lovely islands, a small island with only one little town on it called Procida and took a bath in the sea. It was an oasis of quiet and beauty. We had a really great time there and I would go back there anytime!
Jay Clarke Yeah, we were there last year and it was visible that they are trying to improve the safety, there were soldiers patrolling all around the city. A day before we arrived the police actually arrested a major mafia group, something like 30 guys, most of them mafia bosses, but I don't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing, because I heard that those mafians had a respect for tourists and some of them even protected tourists because the tourism was a profitable source of income. But 10 years ago, Naples was in a deep trouble, they even went bankrupt, so I can imagine that it would be a bad place for a holiday back then...
@Roberto di Terlizzi
@neldot are you joking? One of the safest big city in Europe? It is neither in Italy... Some prejudices are not unfounded
fiinally did it! I just returned from Italy yesterday. I did visit Naples and of course Pompeii. What an impressive country Italy is! I totally loved it and can't wait to go back. Thanks, Steve, for all your good advice.
Whoa, gritty is right! I love it when he says he crosses the street, "in the shadow of a confident local"
Naples looks like our streets in Boston 🤦♀️😂
Italy has the most beautiful architecture of old buildings the cobble stone roads the weather look comfortable the colors the food looks amazing that pizza in that restaurant
It's just bread with tomato sauce, a bit disappointing
@@leob4403 simplicity is the key my dear american fellow
@@lorenzopeverelli7819 dude im Swedish. That margarita is good as a carb source but you need to add protein and vegetables. I did that tour in Pompeii and was very disappointed with that margarita pizza we got. Having said that I then went to Lido de Ostia just outside Rome, and ordered a pizza with seafood on it, it was probably the best pizza I ever had. Seafood is very expensive in Sweden. To get a whole pizza with piles of freshly caught mussels. oysters, shrimp and so on, for a pretty low price aswell, that was fantastic I must say
@@leob4403 oh you are sweden, no surprise you liked the seafood pizza, here in italy is just for the tourists, actually surprised you didnt add the fermented shark to be honest
Dear Rick, Please, please, redo these trips now. You inspired me to take a chance and travel for the first time alone (my daughter in tow) and I continue to look to you for guidance. It would mean so much to have your first-hand experiences post (?) COVID surge or perhaps as we navigate all of this together as a world. Thank you Rick for being such a positive force for happy travels!
That was very nice Rick Steves i enjoyed it, i was station there in the bay of Naples on a ship back in 1952 and you brought back a lot of memories to me and thank you so much, the ship was USS Adirondack Wow, Wow and Wow and i as a sailor.
I Love Naples and Pompeii - That's great Rick
watching "the singing merchants" moves me!! It seems such an antiquated thing, all that theatre and pride in their wares. Europe is changing so drastically from year to year now, and I wonder how long the singing merchants in Napoli will continue? God bless them. And thank you, dear Rick Steves, for bringing so much of Europe's beauty to us.
when was this vid made?
2006
Napoli has been the most important musical town in Europe during the eighteen century, and first half of the nineteen. Why did you forget about it and the marvelous San Carlo Theater?
Napoli is not only fish, pizza and mozzarella, but also and mainly culture, science and music.
I hate to break it to you, but Americans are not crazy for culture...the Prado in Spain has a regular tour and a much shorter American tour. At 22 my husband, a violinist, and I went to Florence and "did" St.Marks monastery and all things Savanarola and the Ufizzi and felt very lonely until we finally went on the Ponte Vecchio and heard American accents all over buying gold and jewelry. (Matthew's mum)
He just likes to give an americna stereotyped vision of Naples, all the video aim to that
It's pathetic
Steve's, you tell everything so well, it seems that we are seeing all this with our own eyes.
Thanks for the video sir! I've been all over the world, and I've found Naples the most real city with a HUGE heart. God bless Naples, Italy, come to Naples, it's absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!!! LOVE FROM GREAT BRITAIN.
I enjoy your videos. Thank You. You show a good perspective for the future travelers. You took me right back to Naples and Pompeii. My kingdom for a pizza.
I love Naples. ❤. Full of energy, history, friendly people, beautiful 😍 panorama, delicious food 😋, very Kingdom of soul.
Bella Napoli.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Rick Steves for making life so rich for the armchair traveler!!
I visited in February 2019, delightful city, so much to see. Just walking everywhere is fun. I like the Italians. Had a great hostel. Winter in Europe is the pick for me.
Thanks Rick for another well done show I hope you, your family and staff are well and I look forward to more shows!
Naples had a NYC feel to it while I thought Rome felt like Chicago. Loved Naples. Vibrant.
Naples great pizza great landscape and people.loved my trip and walk o. The volcano slide walk sulphur smell.A. Geophysical Student Pompey a great place to see and ponder,Naples a great museum I agree Rick most educational and enjoyable tour.A nn Deakin from Warwick.
Wow!! Pizza looks very delish.... and the serving is generous! Pizza ouside Italy is to be shared by many per serving!! Love it!
Bravo Rick! I throughly enjoyed watching this beautiful chaos. The museums are spectacular!
Hi there
I live in Florence, but planning to move to Naples cause i love the gritty vibe of the city. Nice work Rick!
+Italian You're crazy bro. Stay your ass in Florence!! Naples is fucked up!! Don't come here
Osh Did you move to Naples in the end!?
@Amanda may Nieves google it.
Maravilloso vídeo, pero lo que lo hace perfecto es la información que nos brinda en todo momento y la espontaneidad de algunas escenas divertidas. Gracias
Amazing Pompeii and its frescoes... wonderful...
I'm going naples this year, looks amazing.
Did you go there?
Beautiful tour; thanks Steve !
I love hearing from you as you are most intuitive and knowledgeable about travel.
Thank you again Rick...You continue to educated me from my travels..Thanks..
One of my stops in my future Jojo's Bizarre Adventure global tour! I have a lot to visit. Japan, India, Egypt, New York, and Italy but its worth following in the footsteps of some of the best anime characters of all time. ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!
You forgot about Florida
United Kingdom too.
I know I’m late, but I hope you can make it to them all, and if you do you should take pics doing JoJo poses in said global tour
Write to me from Naples.
Write me everyday.
I love you and Naples
more than words can say.
I appreciate you so much Rick! Thankful that you allow us to travel along through the screen. ❤️
a very beautiful video. Very rich on the cultural level. Thank you Rick Steve. great job !
Great Documentary
Gaetano Manfredi the Italian archeologist who gives Rick Steves a tour in Pompeii ( 15:00 min of the video) is not only intelligent and engaging in his explanations but also incredible handsome! I've been on several tours with Gaetano and can confidently say- if you happen to visit Pompeii - only go with Gaetano !
He is incredible !!
I also love Rick Steves and always read his advice before traveling to any new place !!!
Excellent video !!
Simple truth!
Gaetano was my colleague years ago. Clever and charming man
Hello Vera
Great! Thanks so much! All blessings!
Viva il sud ❤️
Io direi W Claudia wow!!!
Rick has such a great job! Thanks for sharing your journeys!
Rick Steves thx you fir being ad free on UA-cam
Great video sir!
Back in 2001 I visited Naples and Pompeii with a tour group. That part of Italy is really beautiful. There is a shopping mall in Naples that looks like the one I visited in Milan.
You have had great shows over the years!!!! Excellent job!!!!
Nice place to visit. Thank you for sharing Steves.
I love Rick's visits. I hope the people are as kind, and friendly, and humorous as his videos lead us to believe.
I've been to Naples, Pompeii, Sorrento and Capri. Very enjoyable!
yes I too visited naples Pompeii and ischia
Bill Bergendahl good!
+Bill Bergendahl What did you see in Pompeii that i missed out
Bill Bergendahl
I saw Rome, Ischia, Naples, Capri, Lucca, and Herculaneum.
The people of Pompei disagree.
oh my gosh I LOVED this little film! I'm addicted. Perfect amount of information and I loved how you went into the cultural street life style. Thank you for this :)
love the series of Rick steves sooooo muchhh
very intriguing very cultural!!! culture can be friendly and loving too!!
Rick Steve's smokes more weed than Snoop and Wiz combined. He's my hero
good video & awesome city Napoli
Your journey makes me dream all day.
Great video, thank you Mr. Stevens
Naples unfairly earned a negative reputation up through the end of the 20th Century.. The HQ of the USN 2nd fleet and a main liberty port for Navy East coast ships carried a lot of negative stories home. Today it's a major stopover port in general for cruise lines floating the Med. Also one of the main jumping off points to the Isles of Capri and Ischia or over to Sicily . The city underwent a recent major cleanup and even bravely survives a garbage strike every 4 years.. Working hard to improve it's image. Glad it was on my list.
Naples is improving :), since 2010s it became a lot cleaner and safe, also, just this morning, European Union gave italy €209 billions that will be mainly used to improve the South and make it independent from tourism in order to be as advanced as the central europe zone that includes Northern Italy, Germany, Austria and France and is the richest part of Europe
Xxxxxxxsxxeeeessswswseddddeep
What a wonderful tour through this area. I'm sad. I've never been to Italy and would love to see places like Pompeii and Herculaneum. That would be a dream.
Mee too
Have to say that it would be very hard for a tourist to spend a few days and see as much of Naples and Pompeii as what's in this video. Rick Steve's is my favorite travel channel, not only for the knowledgeable & entertaining contents, but also for Rick's witty & clever dialogs that stay away from sentences starting with "I", which makes it even more interesting than many other channels' contents.
Greatest appreciation to all the team members who helped create this wonderful video, as well as all other videos.
Steve videos are just great. That pizza looks so good
Personally, I find Naples safe, which is not what my Italian friends say; then again they haven't lived in the parts of London I have! The food is Amazing, the contemporary art (Villa Madre for example) has one of the world's best collections. All up, it gets my thumbs up. It does feel more Eastern to me than European, there are elements of Bangkok (another of my favourite cities for its culture, food and diversity) and my Neapolitan partner says it feels more like Moroccan, which is great when you crave variance. Either way, a big plus is, it isn't overly touristed. Date last visited: 2020
I have lived many, many places on this planet, and Napoli is THE place I would choose to move to again.
I don’t think that’s a good idea
@@VesuviusGaming-um5yn like I said it's a wonderful place to live but I wouldn't want to visit there.
The Front Porch if the volcanoes do wake up that’s not a good sign
thanks for all the lovely stories &scenes...I enjoyed ...
Italy is one of the Coolest places on Earth !!!

Very interesting the Spanish heritage of Naples and much of today's Italy, in this case very noticeable in the flag of Naples itself and the Napolitan language, one of many languages and dialects of Italy.
Matt Owen Spanish occupied Naples & rest of the Italian south, but I challenge any Spanish speaker to see if he can understand the Napolitan language. even Non Naples "italian" speakers can't fully understand! perhaps its because Spain wasn't the only one to occupy. Byzantines, Romans, Austrians, Greeks, French bourbons.
They look and speak like Latino in U.S.
Neapolitan is totally different from Spanish language. Our language comes from ancient greek and latin language...
@@lisabolo26 Neapolitan is more similiar to ancient greek language instead of spanish...
@Michele La Mura I linguisti sostengono che la somiglianza del napoletano allo spagnolo, non dipende da una diretta influenza della lingua spagnola sul napoletano, ma dalla comune origine delle due lingue. Così come l'Italiano è simile allo spagnolo perchè entrambi derivano dal latino, la stessa cosa vale per il napoletano. Di conseguenza il napoletano è simile non solo allo spagnolo ma a tutte le lingue neolatine europee, come il francese e il portoghese. Non dimentichiamo che la lingua napoletana (la lingua parlata in gran parte del Sud, quello che intendi tu, cioè il dialetto dell'area metropolitana di Napoli, è una sottocategoria della lingua napoletana) deriva anche dal greco antico e dalla lingua dei popoli autoctoni della Campania, gli Osci...
Great coverage on Naples. I visited Naples during 2014-2016. It is now under renovation and everything is taken away and scaffolding covers the Galleria, Opera house and the square.
You video certainly brings back the great and picturesque sites. Hopefully, in a few years Naples will uncover the scaffolding and become alive once more.
Thank for your informative travels thru Italy.
Great. Show
..been. to. Italy. ...choir. tour
....loved. all.
I Love you Italy.
Hello Rick, I do love and appreciate your travel Guide shows. I get to learn so much and get inspired to travel. I just wanted to ask you to please consider doing a video on Ethiopia. There is so much to see and learn from. Plus its a way to promote Ethiopia to the world.
An Indian like me will immediately feel at home in bustling, chaotic but surprisingly synchronised Naples. 😄😄
My thoughts exactly. Those hustle and bustle felt like being in Old Delhi or Lucknow.
India has some of the most beautiful and fascinating history on the planet, and I really want to visit it someday! Chaotic streets often lead to some good food😄
Also him calling maradona 'a soccer star'. :D For Naples, and for Argentina, he's practically GOD
Amazing i really enjoy very much your travel to europe tours
I like this very much! Thanks for your wonderful work!
sou brasileiro mais tenho origem italiana , meu sonho é um dia poder conhecer pompeia e herculano e subir o monte vesuvio ! Quanto ao documentario muito bom !
amigo eu sou italiano mi sonho cochecer rio de janiero mutio linda!
I come from games called Father and Son, it is very touching story. Now i can't describe how bad i want to go to this city. Sory for my bad english
is a magnificent building of Naples and Pompeii , I'm enjoying watching and learning about ancient civilizations .
Il museo archeologico di Napoli è il più completo del mondo! Si studia la civiltà greca e romana in tutti i vari aspetti dai grandi monumenti alla vita quotidiana!
Michael Corleone/ Scarface at 15:00 ... :)
That folded pizza is awesome!
LOL he looks it!
i went last year.. feeling grateful i was there before the COVID19 storm hit. I love naples! I enjoyed it more than Rome!
THANK YOU ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO.
Enjoyed this must visit city. Thanks Steve!
Im surprised Rick didn't cover the famous underground Roman city in the middle of Napoli, it's 40 meter under the city full of history , every local knows it
