Ravenna's Golden Soul, visit 5 UNESCO buildings in a 3 hours Private Walking Tour

My husband and I very much enjoyed our time with Syliva in Ravenna. Before our trip Sylvia answered our queries and messages promptly, giving us excellent advice as to which tickets to buy and which entry times to select to make sure that our visit to the UNESCO mosaic sites went well. During the tour it became clear that Sylvia was very knowledgeable and she brought the history of Ravenna and the beautiful mosaics to life for us with her expertise and clear and engaging explanations. She was full of enthusiasm for Ravenna, its treasures and its history and made us feel the same way. Slyvia was also very friendly and considerate, guiding us from one site to another without rushing and left us plenty of time to look at everything and take photographs. We even had time for a short sit down and a coffee. We thoroughly recommend Syliva – she did a great job and is an excellent guide.

Ravenna is the hidden joy of Italy. Being able to see intact and beautiful buildings from the 5th and 6th centuries was an amazing experience and one that few Americans know about.

We are so glad we booked this tour with Sylvia! She shares her extensive knowledge of the history of Ravenna and the mosaics generously and with gentle authority. Sylvia answered the many questions we posed. Wonderful to be on a private tour and not in the many groups we saw of 20+ people ( though I’m sure they were good too!l) We encourage you to book with her!!!

Silvia is an excellent tour guide. We could see how much Silvia loves sharing the history of her city. Communications on the meeting location from our Air B&B were clean and exact. Our 3 hour walking tour of Ravenna was very informative and really took us back into the history of the city and the UNESCO sites we visited. As we walked to each site Silvia would point out other interesting areas and their history and answered all our questions about Ravenna. A couple of us in the family were older and she make sure the pace of the tour was just right.

I loved this tour. We went to five major mosaic sites in central Ravenna, walking through the city's charming streets. Our guide Sylvia made these ancient sites come alive for us, telling us the story of who built them and the city's rulers. She then gave us appropriate quiet time to enjoy the art. Also, she was very personable and took good care of us. My older companion needed a few breaks, and she was very kind about accommodating that. We told her before the tour that we wanted to concentrate on the artwork, so she tailored the tour for our wishes. She also gave us good advice on planning our other free time in Ravenna. Highly reccomend!

We had a great tour with Silvia. She was nice, considerate and lively and had great knowledge of the history and art of Ravenna
