Take part in a small-group tour of Rimini to discover the rich history of the city while admiring its sites! Rimini's strategic position, between Rome and the northern cities and close to the sea, allowed the city to turn into an important commercial center and influential cultural city.
Meet your guide at the Arch of Augustus, the ancient Roman entrance to the city, and begin your experience moving to Piazza Tre Martiri, the city's main square. Stroll among the shops and admire the temple dedicated to Saint Anthony from Padua. This square is also featured in Fellini's 'Amarcord'. Continue towards Piazza Cavour, the political center of the city where you'll see Palazzo Garampi, Palazzo dell’Arengo, and Palazzo del Podestà, three historical buildings.
Visit the Sismondo Castle and the Malatestian Temple, two examples of Italian Renaissance architecture dedicated to the Malatesta family, that ruled the city for centuries. Inside the city's cathedral, you'll see paintings by artists like Leon Battista Alberti, Giotto, and Piero della Francesca. Discover the Surgeon’s House, where you'll see a collection of ancient Roman medical instruments. Lastly, cross Tiberio’s Bridge to reach San Giuliano, a fishermen village whose colorful houses will amaze you.
