Overview

This tour is perfect for travelers arriving at the Port of Ravenna on their way to Venice. Your private driver will meet you at the Cruise Terminal – Porto Corsini, assist with your luggage, and take you to the heart of Ravenna. While your luggage stays safely in the car, I’ll guide you on a 2–3-hour walking tour of the city’s stunning UNESCO sites. After a relaxing lunch break, your driver will take you comfortably to your final destination in Venice. Please note that drop-offs are usually limited to Marco Polo Airport or Piazzale Roma, which is the only area in Venice accessible to cars. However, if your accommodation is located outside Venice (for example, in Mestre), please let me know once you’ve booked so that we can arrange the drop-off there instead. Once a vibrant capital of Late Antique Europe, Ravenna dazzles with breathtaking art and architecture. Together, we’ll explore its most iconic landmarks, shimmering with golden mosaics that tell stories of faith and empire.
