What you can expect

Enjoy the magic of Ravenna: an exclusive tour of the most beautiful mosaics.

This special one-hour visit, designed to offer you a unique and evocative experience, will take you to discover the most famous and iconic mosaics of Ravenna, before the crowds arrive.

With a certified tour guide with over 10 years of experience, you'll immerse yourself in the millennial history of Ravenna, the ancient capital of three empires.

The tour includes a visit to the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, a magical and spiritual place, where the Roman Empress Galla Placidia found her final resting place. Let yourself be enchanted by the symbolism of the mosaics, such as the starry sky and the doves drinking at the fountain. Next, we'll visit the Basilica of San Vitale, a masterpiece of Byzantine art and architecture, where you can admire the famous imperial processions of Justinian and Theodora, the Christ Pantocrator, and other extraordinarily beautiful mosaics, among oriental marbles and evocative plays of light.

At the end of the visit, the guide will give you a map of Ravenna's historic centre and show you how to get to 3 other splendid UNESCO monuments included in your ticket.

An unforgettable experience, exclusive because we'll visit the monuments before the arrival of the organised groups. An intimate tour, designed for a small group for better interaction with the guide, and exciting because you'll discover stories, anecdotes, and curiosities you won't find in the books.
