Highlights

Join this private walking tour led by a local guide to discover the beautiful city of Parma and get to know the different nuances that history, art, culture and tradition have left in the so-called 'small capital'. Discover the medieval epoch, the rich legacy of Renaissance art, the splendor of the Farnese era, the Bourbon reconstruction of the state, the happy period under the rule of the Duchess Maria Luigia of Austria and, finally, the contemporary era. Follow you guide and explore the church of St. John the Evangelist, the central Piazza Duomo and its monuments, the basilica of Santa Maria della Steccata. You'll also pass along the Teatro Regio, the "Palazzo della Pilotta" and the Ducal Palace and will get to know their histories and importance in town through the words of your guide. Just one tip: don't forget to bring your camera with you.

About Parma

Parma, in Emilia-Romagna, is a refined food city of Romanesque and Renaissance buildings, famed for its ham and cheese and for opera.

Parma's cathedral and its pink-marble baptistery, begun by the sculptor Benedetto Antelami in the 1190s, stand side by side in the main piazza, and Correggio painted the swirling Assumption of the Virgin in the cathedral dome. The Palazzo della Pilotta, a vast Farnese palace, holds the National Gallery and the wooden Teatro Farnese. The Teatro Regio is one of Italy's respected opera houses, and Verdi and Toscanini both have strong ties to the city.
