Visit appreciated and recommended!! - We visited the Ducal Palace and the historic center with the guide Eleonora. Two pleasant hours with a competent guide capable of letting us tiptoe into the fascinating history of the city and the Gonzaga family and the artistic heritage of Mantua. Highly recommended also for the price!

History in a walk. - I thank the very knowledgeable Eleonora for taking us to the historic center and telling us the history of Mantua.
Very helpful and precise on every occasion.
