You are not going to see only the preparations of the Neapolitan pizza but you are going to discover some secret: which flour is good to use, which yeast, how much time is needed for the dough to rest, how should be spread, which tomato to use, when should the oil need to be added and so many other things. And you will hear the story of this unique dish, which in all over the world are trying to replicate it but only in Naples remains in its kind. Return in the hotel and overnight. Curiosity: one of the legends tells that the coffee, in Naples, became a cult thanks to Maria Carolina from Habsburg,  doughter of Maria Teresa from Austria and wife of the king Ferdinando IV. When the queen moved to live under Vesuvio, at Wien the refined Kaffeehaus were already institutions. It was like that so they started to tick also in the capital of the Borbonic Reign. From the historic coffees in Naples,  the one that has survived until today is the Gran Caffè Gambrinus, on the angle between the square Trieste and Trento and the Plebiscito Square. Entering in the Gran Caffè Gambrinus is like you make a jump in the history. Its history begins with the Unifying of Italy in the 1860. During the years it became the good salon of the good Naples. Furniture in liberty style, stucco, marbles, art operas and walls decorated with the most important Neapoletan landscapes. The actual seat, where still today you can breath that environment a little retro, was inaugurated in the 1890. In its halls were alternated intellectuals, artists, nobles and presidents. Today Gambrinus is an obligatory stage for every visitor of the city. For a breakfast, a lunch, an appetizer, but mostly for the coffee, shaken also. **During: around 2 hours.
