Tour Itinerary
On a three-hour guided walking tour of Ravenna discover the symbolic world of the Byzantine civilization through the beautiful mosaics of Ravenna. Remarkably well preserved, their sheer opulence overwhelms all who visit them.
Accompanied by a local expert on the mosaics, explore the fantastic world of colored glass tessere, and by the end of the tour you'll be able to decipher the encrypted message of the mystical world that you find represented in churches and mausoleums of the town.
The tours includes a detailed visit to the most significant Early-Christian and
Byzantine monuments of Ravenna. We'll visit all the major sites for the famous mosiacs including: the Church of S.Vitale, the Mausoleum of
Galla Placidia, the Church of S.Francis with its waterlogged
