Stop At: Mura Venete, Viale delle Mura, 24129 Bergamo Italy

Enjoy an incredible view over the lower part of Bergamo and its surroundings from the Venetian Works of Defence, a wall built between the XVI and XVII centuries by the Republic of Venice: not an ordinary wall, not only for the panorama but also because it goes from Bergamo to Montenegro passing through Croatia. This site earnt Bergamo and 5 other Italian, Croatian and Montenegro cities the recognition of UNESCO as a World Heritage!

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Piazza Vecchia, 24129 Bergamo Italy

You will admire the Palazzo della Ragione with its curious meridian, the highest Tower of Bergamo called “Campanone” by the locals and Palazzo Nuovo, that now hosts a public library.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Cattedrale (Duomo) di Bergamo e Battistero, Piazza Duomo, 24129 Bergamo Italy

You will visit the Bergamo Cathedral dedicated to Saint Alexander Martyr, holy patron of the city, admire Santa Maria Maggiore Basilica and even enter the Colleoni Chapel, a masterpiece mausoleum of the Lombard Renaissance wanted by Bartolomeo Colleoni, a warlord who played an extremely important role in the history of the city.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Lavatoio di Citta Alta, Via Lupo, 24124 Bergamo Italy

Finally, you will get to admire a perfectly preserved, ancient washhouse (Lavatoio), built in 1881. It was used by the locals to do the laundry, to chat and to quench their thirst and represents a masterful example of applied engineering, as it worked perfectly until the 1950s; a precious evidence of the past of this city.

I am so glad I chose to visit Bergamo with this guided tour, something off the beaten path! The town is not far from Milan, buildings are amazing and full of history, you wouldn't expect it! The tour was well organized with comfortable transportation and the group was small. Our guide Silvia was incredibly passionate about her job and the city. It is a great way to spend a day. Not to be missed!
