Over deze activiteit

Your tour starts with a stroll through the largest square in Italy, Prato della Valle. During the tour you will have the opportunity to see the Basilica of Saint Anthony, which is one of the most visited religious sites in the world. People not only come for religious purposes, but many individuals also visit because of its beautiful and well preserve artwork, which features five different architectural styles. These styles include Romanesque, Gothic, Byzantine, Renaissance, and Baroque.

With your guide, you will stop by the Palazzo della Ragione (palace of justice) to admire the temple of frescos, Piazza dei Signori during which you will gain insight about its name, history, and significance.

In addition to checking out the most admired coffee house in Italy, Cafe Pedrocch, which is also know by many of the locals as "no door coffee shop" you will have time to make a final stop by Scrovegni Chapel to see an important masterpiece of Western art by Giotto. You will have time to enjoy a signature coffee in the most beautiful cafe in Italy (own expense) if you would like.

A tour to Padua would not be completed without taking a stroll through the Jewish Ghetto and seeing an amphitheater that is older than the Colosseum in Rome. Your guide will then take you back to Venice, unless you choose to spend more time in Padua to visit Zuckermann Palace or Eremitani Civic Museum (these museums are opened every day but Monday and admission is included).

Confirmation will be received at time of booking
A minimum of 2 people per booking is required
Please be at the meeting point at least 5-10 minutes prior to the meeting time to make sure you find the correct meeting point with our guide because if you are late, it is almost impossible to catch up firstly because we are going to a different city. Secondly, at Scrovegni Chapel, only 25 people are allowed in at a time, and if we miss showing up at the time slot that we are assigned to, then it is very likely that we will not be able to get into the chapel on that particular day if tickets are sold out. Therefore, it is very crucial for you to show up on time.

An energetic young woman met us at the train station and was full of enthusiasm for the city she was going to show us. It was both beautiful and interesting, the Basilica of St Anthony, the Giotta exhibit , the marketplace etc all worth spending time in, and the general tour of the town most interesting. A lot of walking at a good clip to accomplish this, but worth the energy. She took us back to Venice and accompanied us part way back to center we stopped for lunch saving us an expensive taxi. She has much to share about the art and architecture of Padua.
