Historical Tour of Città Alta in Bergamo with Official Guide

Join me to discover the history, art, and gastronomy of the so-called City of the Thousand. A lovely stroll through its cobblestone streets, full of life and international tourism. I'll tell you where to enjoy its typical dishes, its afternoon snacks, its local shopping areas, etc.

Like other Italian cities, Bergamo will surprise you. Keep your eyes wide open, because in every corner you can find remnants of the Venetian wall, its Roman past, its artistic jewels in the constructions of the Duomo, the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, and the Colleoni Chapel, and why it is one of the favorite destinations for so many university students.

Make sure to come with comfortable clothing and footwear for this Free Tour. And above all, be prepared to try the famous Casoncelli, stracciatella ice cream, Polenta, sweets, and their platters of cold cuts and cheeses.
