Padua Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Giovanni was fascinating to listen to and so enthusiastic it was infectious! It was a pleasure to spend time with him.

We had an excellent visit to the Scrovegni Chapel and short walk in medieval Padua. Giovanni was a marvellous guide both as to his enthusiastic love for the chapel and for Padua. He gave us extensive explanations and answered our questions. His comments allowed us to look at Padua with fresh eyes after the tour had finished.

We had the pleasure of having Vittorio as our guide for the Prosecco tasting, and he made the experience really special. He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and made everything easy to understand.As two Danes visiting the Prosecco region for the first time, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. A beautiful location, wonderful people, and of course, excellent Prosecco.We highly recommend a visit! 🥂

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Such a warm and personal Prosecco experienceWe had such a wonderful experience at Azienda Agricola Rebuli Angelo & Figli!My friend and I arrived quite late, around 7:15 PM, straight from a few days of hiking in the Dolomites. Even though they were supposed to close at 8 PM, we were welcomed with such warmth and never once felt rushed.Vittorio took amazing care of us. He was incredibly friendly and passionate, and instead of it feeling like a standard tasting, it felt much more personal. We got to taste their Prosecco while hearing about the winery, their story and the people behind it. We also briefly met his boss, who was just as kind and welcoming.What made the experience especially memorable was how much time Vittorio took to talk with us. We shared stories about our trip and where we were heading next, and genuinely felt like guests rather than customers.The Prosecco was delicious, but the hospitality was what really made this visit special. It was such a lovely and unexpected ending to our day after driving down from the Dolomites.Thank you, Vittorio and the whole team, for making us feel so welcome. We would absolutely recommend stopping here if you’re visiting the Prosecco region! 🥂🇮🇹

Tour with audio guide very well explained. Appreciate the links for purchasing tickets for the visits. I recommend it.

Midya was great, super thorough with the experience living in Padua and going through various points of interest. Glad I booked it as it gave me a great overview of the city.

A fantastic initiative-the audio and online guide gave independent travellers some great background information, links and directions to the important sites. Thoroughly recommend this service.

Cristina was an incredible guide, my daughters and i were so lucky to have the chance to learn all about Padua and its rich history. We were running a bit late due to traffic issue and Cristina was so gracious and understanding - could not recommend more!

We had a wonderful boat tour around Chioggia with Bosetti Tours. The experience felt very personal, and Damian was an excellent guide: friendly, knowledgeable, and highly skilled at navigating the canals.The tour covered so many fascinating topics, from local fishing traditions and stories of life on the water to visiting a mussel farm and learning about the history of Chioggia and its canals. Damian’s passion and local knowledge made everything engaging and easy to follow.If you’re looking for an authentic and informative way to experience Chioggia, I highly recommend Bosetti Tours. It was one of the highlights of our visit!

It was a good experience, saw and learned a lot from chioggia , Damiano was also really nice and welcoming .

Se gi was a wonderful and enthusiastic guide full of interesting information. What a beautiful and historic city! Highly recommend this walking tour, it’s just the right length and she gave us plenty of suggestions of places to further explore. A perfect day trip from Venice.

Beautiful, modern, and well-maintained winery, run by passionate and very professional young people. The tasting allows you to fully immerse yourself in the territory and tradition. The staff is welcoming and very knowledgeable; they guided us through the vineyards and the winery with interesting explanations, conveying all their passion to us. The tasting moment is a true experience: wines of the highest quality accompanied by traditional yet never predictable snacks. All in a stunning setting, peace, nature, and elegance. Everything was perfect, well done!

I did not participate in the painting but only in the tasting of 5 wines. Stunning location, friendly and knowledgeable staff, excellent wine. We decided to extend the experience with an additional platter and glass. I find it hard to believe that I won't return, it was a wonderful day

Highly recommended—great wines, delicious meat and cheese platters (with vegetarian options), and fascinating insights into wine production. Very generous and super friendly!

It was a pleasant, fun and well conducted tour by guide Chiara from LoVivo Tour Experience. We know the city, with the guide pointing the history and the main places of interest, squares, the Botteca del Pane and the Ponte degli Alpini. On the visit to the distillery Nardini, in addition to knowing the technique of distilling grape bagas to become grappa, we were toasted with Nicole's joy. Enthusiastically, she led us through the Nardini labyrinth and showed us the facilities where it all began in 1779. The alambics and furniture are kept as part of the memory. At the end, the tasty tasting. Thank you Chiara!

Great way to explore the town and learn some history. Some of the clues were obscure and unanswerable-for me anyway. But a great way to kill a few hours
