What to expect

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Basilica di Sant'Apollinare Nuovo, Via di Roma 52, 48121, Ravenna Italy

This is the Ravenna basilica with the largest mosaic area of the early Christian era; here the ghost of the Gothic king Theoderic still lingers, who stopped here and wanted the palatine chapel

Duration: 40 minutes

Stop At: Dante's tomb and Quadrarco of Braccioforte, Via Dante Alighieri 9, 48121, Ravenna Italy

Of all the famous Italians in the world, perhaps the best known remains Dante Alighieri, who spent many years of his life here and here he composed Paradise, at the end of his Comedy, certainly inspired by the magnificent mosaics of Ravenna and its atmospheres a little noir.

Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Mausoleo di Galla Placidia, Via San Vitale, 48121, Ravenna Italy

It is the city treasure, which contains the early Christian mosaics in the most beautiful glass paste in the world

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Basilica di San Vitale, Via San Vitale 17, 48121, Ravenna Italy

This octagonal temple of the sixth century is a true hymn to life, starting from its dedication to the Holy martyr Vitale. Its dome, object of study of the greatest architects of the world, from Brunelleschi to Palladio, from Antonio da Sangallo the Younger to Le Corbusier, makes pendant with the perhaps most famous mosaics of the city: those that represent the emperor Justinian and his wife Teodora, muse of many more or less contemporary artists, from Gustave Klimt to Karl Lagerfeld, from Christian Lacroix to many other masters of style and refinement.

Duration: 40 minutes

Magnifica visita privada con una extraordinaria guía. Ciudad preciosa y poco visitada. Estuvimos solos en casi todos los monumentos que visitemos.

Die Führung und die Erklärungen durch Dorothea Weidemann zu den einzelnen Bauten/Kunstwerken waren einmalig, sie brachte Kunst, Kultur und Antike zusammen und konnte auf Nachfrage selbst Details, die auch über Ravenna hinaus gingen, im Zusammenhang erklären. Wir beide waren begeistert.
