Itinerary
Meet your friendly local guide at Piazza dei Signori for a 3-hour bike tour of Padua. Start with a classic Italian breakfast—cappuccino and pastry—at a traditional café while hearing about the day's route. Hop on your bike and explore Padua’s historic streets, visiting landmarks like Piazza del Duomo, Prato della Valle, and the Basilica of Saint Anthony. Your guide will share fascinating stories about each site. Pause for a sweet treat near the Basilica before following an ancient Roman road to Portello Gate, a historic university area. Ride through public gardens and lively medieval squares like Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza della Frutta, where another delicious break with local drinks and snacks awaits. Cycle through the charming cobblestone alleys of the Jewish Quarter, a hidden gem rich in history. Finally, return to Piazza dei Signori to end your adventure with a refreshing Aperol Spritz—after all, Padua is the birthplace of Aperol!
