Overview

Come and discover the real Trieste, a cosmopolitan city, with a professional and kind guide who will introduce you to all the important places that have marked the history of this wonderful city.

From a Roman colony it became the Habsburg port city called "the little Vienna on the sea" nestled between the mountains and the luminous sea. In Trieste the characteristics of a Mediterranean port blend with the architecture and atmosphere of a Central European metropolis.

During the tour we will discover history, literature and art, starting from its magnificent Piazza Unità d'Italia, which opens onto the Gulf of Trieste, surrounded by splendid buildings.

We will visit its Roman remains together, the medieval part with the splendid cathedral and the Habsburg part, walking along excavations, churches, squares, palaces, the grand canal and historic cafés.

Trieste awaits you! Come and discover it with this fantastic tour.
