Expert knowledge of the Ravenna Mosaics - The tour guide explained all the details in each mosaic weaving them into the wider political/historical context of the time. It was easy to see how passionate she was sharing her knowledge and love of Ravenna. Excellent for small groups!

Mosaics and history! - This walking tour was amazing! We knew little about the city when we booked the tour and our guide delved into its history from the time of the Roman Empire. The mosaics are exquisite and we were able to understand them in the context of the time in which they were created.

Best tour we could imagine! - Eliza met us at the station and we learned that we were the only participants of the tour that day. Our thanks goes to the organization for not cancelling! - We had a great time with charming and well informed Eliza and learned a lot of interesting details about Ravenna and the mosaics. After the tour we were full of wonderful impressions and were very glad to take a break. In the afternoon we visited the two remaining sites which belonged to the tour and were self guided.

Ravenna, a illuminous place - Our guide Marina was excellent. She had humor and was very well prepared about both the area and the places we visited. She also brought lots of little details that others might not have. The peace was easy, and our group was small, which made it easy to talk with her one on one.
