4.00Our tour guide Deborah was outstanding. The meeting point instructions through TripAdvisor were incorrect. Because of this confusion, the tour started late and tour of Padua did not occur.

5.00Angelica (sp?) was very knowledgeable, friendly and passionate. An enjoyable 2 hours despite one guy being on his phone the whole time and bumping into people...seemed a bit overly expensive but it was worth it as the S. Chapel was fantastic. If you want a little walking tour of the area, some good information and guided commentary inside the Chapel, this is for you.

5.00Informative walk along the main attractions in downtown Padua. Our guide was very friendly, very informed and very serious in her task – and yet she had humor and one or the other story away from the usual stories! We found this really great and informative. Highly recommended! Their guidance and interpretations in the Scrovegni Chapel were particularly exciting!

The only ticket for a fee is the entrance to the chapel of the chests with mainly recorded audio explanation and a stop of only 15 minutes in front of the frescoes The rest was a walk downtown with the guide in a low voice and a few nods in front of university palace of reason town hall and historic cafe Total hours 2
