Overview

Your day begins with a comfortable pickup in Venice by my personal driver, who will bring you to the historic city of Ravenna. Upon arrival, I’ll be waiting to guide you on an enlightening walking tour of Ravenna’s UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Once a vibrant capital of Late Antique Europe, Ravenna boasts spectacular art and architecture. As we stroll through the city center, we’ll visit its most iconic landmarks, shimmering with golden early Christian mosaics. You’ll then have time for a relaxing lunch before returning to Venice with my driver.

Please note that pick-up and drop-off are usually arranged at Piazzale Roma, in front of Bar Due Ruote—the only area in Venice accessible to cars. However, if your accommodation is in the surrounding area, such as in Mestre, please let me know once you’ve booked so we can arrange pick-up and drop-off directly there, if accessible by car.
