Book the exclusive guided tour led by Valmarana family and enjoy a final glass of wine: the owners will introduce you to the magnificent residence and the unique cycle of frescoes (dated 1757) where you can admire and compare the style of Giambattista and Giandomenico Tiepolo. The tour will offer you the unique opportunity to compare the pastel tones of the great heroes painted by Tiepolo father, with the earthy colors and the country scenes of Tiepolo son. You will explore the Palazzina (owner's house) and see the 5 rooms featuring frescoes by Giambattista Tiepolo accompanied by an owner who lives in the villa. Let yourself be amazed by some of the greatest works of classical and Italian literature translated into frescoed images. The visit will continue in the Foresteria (guest house), where you will admire the frescoes by Giandomenico Tiepolo and discover a residence with objects, furniture, photos, which have belonged to the Valmarana counts since its inception. To finish off beautifully, you can enjoy a relaxing walk to the back garden or take a break at the café overlooking the valley of silence.

What people are saying about Vicenza

It was a beautiful experience going around the beautiful rooms, painted by Tiepolo father and son, of this very nice villa veneta near the city center of Vicenza. Especially with the very interesting and amazing explanations of the local staff. They made us very clear that they love to receive the tourists as you were the guest of the villa. And it is really how me and my friend felt that day. Totally to recommend if you are in Vicenza!

Villa Valmarana is located downtown Vicenza on an off street. It was a really nice day trip to stay local for the weekend. They also have a Cafe and you can set onside and enjoy the view.

Very interesting experience, a villa rich in history and precious frescoes by Giambattista and Giandomenico Tiepolo.
