Really interesting lesson of culture, art and religious traditions. All of them reflected in those stunning buildings. Asunta, best guide ever.

We had such a great morning in Lea’s studio learning the culture and techniques. She was welcoming and very knowledgeable. Her studio is a bit outside the town square but the booking agency was very communicative and helpful on how to navigate arrival.

A great introduction to Ravenna’s wonderful mosaic heritage - Elizabetta was an excellent guide, knowledgeable and engaging.

This is the standard Italian-spoken tour of 5 of the 8 UNESCO sites in Ravenna. It is excellent value for a 3-hour tour with all the site entrance fees included, as well as the Archiepiscopal Museum (with Maximian's Throne). Our guide,Christian, had entertaining stories and insights and time flew by. Just keep in mind: as the standard tour, the group will be large and with headsets. And: you need to understand Italian...

We had an excellent, 3 hour private tour with Luana, visiting Ravenna’s churches containing the beautiful mosaics. Luana has a deep knowledge of art, religion, and history, which she shared with us in an engaging way. We could have spent days with her! Ravenna and its mosaics are truly not to be missed, and our tour with Luana made the experience even more meaningful. Highly recommend.

I'd recommend this tour if you want to understand the history of Ravenna and the mosaics. Lots of interesting anecdotes from our guide Bardo. Good value as it includes entry to some of the sites.

It all felt a bit rushed. A large group, over 20, made it difficult to interact with the guide, and on balance I think a good guide book doing it at my own speed would have been a better experience

The tour with the guide Balthezarro was brilliant. Entry fee is included to all the sites we visited. Loads of information on the history of the churches and mosaics with general information about Ravenna and the places we passed along the way. Three hours in total which went very quickly. Would highly recommend

Chiara was smart and had a good sense of humor . Provided tons of information while at the same time keeping the tour on track. Great experience! Highly recommend it!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hour mosaic tour in Ravenna. Chiara was an excellent guide - knowledgeable and engaging. She paced the tour well and the radio ear pieces meant that we could wander further from the group and yet still hear her commentary. Entry to the sites was made easy by being on the tour and Chiara was able to give us nuggets of information that we would not have found on our own. Highly recommend.
