Overview

Discover the charms of Trieste on this 2 hour walking tour with us.

We are Jerome and Eugenia, partners in work and in life, and it will be our pleasure to guide you through this beautiful city. We’ll discover why Trieste is called the city of wind and the unofficial capital of coffee.

We’ll begin our journey at the Piazza Unità d’Italia, one of Europe’s largest sea-facing squares, surrounded by magnificent neoclassical palaces. Wander the narrow streets to the ancient Roman Theatre, a testament to the city’s ancient past.

We’ll walk up the hill of San Giusto (elevator available) and visit the Cathedral, the historical heart of the town.

We’ll descend via the area where the former Jewish ghetto once stood. Continue through to the Borgo Teresiano district, with its imperial Grand Canal.

Perfect for anyone looking to experience the eclectic charm of this coastal city. We can adapt the itinerary to your interests and needs.

Note: Tour duration includes walking time.

Trieste a beautiful discovery

Fedematty2, Nov 2024

We were lucky and pleased to discover Trieste with Eugenia... an already beautiful city has become even more interesting thanks to our guide Eugenia who, with her professionalism and enthusiasm, guided us through the city telling us its story and describing with passion the streets, churches and the most beautiful views. We recommend this visit formula that allows you to optimize the time available and discover a beautiful city.

Great guided tour: perfect to discover Trieste

LouiseBaker2107, Nov 2024

Perfect guided tour to discover Trieste: Eugenia took me to all the emblematic places of the city (museums, churches, historical monuments...), but also to the most secret places, less known to tourists and appreciated by the triestins. She explains the history of the city, as well as its culture, its gastronomy... It is very easy to ask her questions and she gives many recommendations and tips to spend a few days in the city. I highly recommend this guided tour!
