with the voice of Andrea Palladio
From
Highlights
The unique and original E-Bike tour of the Palladian Villas explores the surroundings of Vicenza passing through 11 Villas, of which 7 are Unesco Palladian Heritage Sites.
The experience includes the rental of a luxurious Palladian E-Bike extremely comfortable and performing (bag and padlocks included), a special navigation system and a traveling voice narration: the guiding voice will be the spirit of Andrea Palladio, who traces his story through the evolution of his villas (entrance fees excluded) and immersion in his landscapes.
The network of Palladian Villa owners invites you to immerse yourself in the history and landscapes of the other half of our UNESCO World Heritage Site in an original, active and sustainable way.
Deep in the Vicenza countryside, sumptuous residences follow one another as far as the eye can see in a widespread eco-museum, architectural forms in continuous evolution until the gemstone of the world-famous Palladian Villa, thanks to the genius of a modest and prodigious stonemason.
