An unmissable stop to learn about Italy and the Renaissance, palace, city and gallery - Always an unmissable stop on the grand tour of the Italian Renaissance. The palace is exceptional, the gallery is exceptional, the town is splendid. We thank for eternity the scarred duke-leader who gave us, forever, so much beauty!

Urbino did not disappoint - Urbino has been on our list of places to visit in Italy for many years. When we finally made it, it did not disappoint. We had the added benefit of a delightful and well-informed guide to the Ducal Palace and the Oratorio di San Giovanni, Cecilia Sanchini, who we are happy to recommend also.

A wonderfully preserved building - An impressive building, full of history and art. Guide was very informative and inside was more the you expected with artworks and masonry. You can learn a lot about Renaissance history and the Montefeltro family.

A true must! - This tour was outstanding. The palazzo is a true treasure. Our guide was amazing. He had near infinite knowledge of all things art, architecture and history- both of Urbino and beyond, and presented it in a way that was accessible and fun. He also gave us a ton of suggestions for other things to see and do in Urbino and beyond. Urbino is bit off the usual tourist path, but a must see for lovers of art, history and culture and this tour is a great way to do it!

Cradle of the Renaissance - Urbino is a delightful city, and is considered the cradle of the Renaissance. You should park outside the city (for a fee) and then explore the narrow streets and squares, the shops and the restaurants. In the evening, Italian life takes place outside.
