This tour will take us, together with a local guide, to discover the real Padua. We will take a walk around the city to discover the most important views and monuments. We will see Prato della Valle, the Basilica of Sant'Antonio or "Il Santo", destination of millions of pilgrims every year and a romantic mix of styles and cultures from all corners of the world. Along the cobbled streets and medieval porticoes we will reach the beating heart of the historic center. We will see the ancient Ghetto of the city which, with its narrow streets and clubs, has become a meeting place for young students. Then the squares, Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza della Frutta with views of the Palazzo della Ragione and often enlivened by the market stalls and the swarming of people under the "Hall". We will reach Piazza dei Signori, a meeting place for Paduans for an aperitif and once the home of the city's lords. Palazzo Bo, seat of the University of Padua. We will conclude the tour with a "Padua-style" tasting.
