Full description
Discover the fascinating city of Ferrara on this 2-hour walking tour that will show you the highlights of this unique city.

Your tour starts with viewing the Renaissance Herculean addition and the inner courtyard of Palazzo dei Diamanti.

La nostra guida era molto preparata, ci ha spiegato un sacco di cose e ci ha dato delle indicazioni molto utili su ulteriori attività da svolgere in città.

La nostra guida Manuela è stata perfetta. Già la sera precedente ci ha inviato un messaggio indicandoci il luogo di ritrovo con foto, è stato quindi facilissimo ritrovarci. Ha adattato il tour alla nostra andatura e ha completato il tour con aneddoti che ci hanno fatto scoprire al meglio questa bellissima città. Grazie
