Culture, art and bags of charm are what Mantua does best. Surrounded by three lakes, it's got history and architecture aplenty. You'll follow your guide on a walking tour through the city of Virgil and the Gonzagas, exploring the four grand piazzas. Discover Mantua's illustrious history - from the Ducal Palace and the museums of Palazzo Te to the Castle of San Giorgio with Andrea Mantegna's Bridal Chamber, there is plenty to see. Round off with an hour-long boat ride along the waterways surrounding the city.
