Full Description
Embark on a family-friendly adventure through the charming city of Padua, where history, art, and storytelling come together to spark young imaginations!
We begin with a visit to the renowned Scrovegni Chapel, where Giotto’s vivid frescoes tell tales of angels, devils, miracles, and medieval life. With simplified explanations and visual aids, children will be guided through the artworks in a way that’s both educational and fun.
From there, we continue through the heart of the city, stopping in Piazza Garibaldi, a bustling local square great for people-watching and photos. Nearby, we explore Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza della Frutta, two ancient market squares where kids can imagine Padua in its medieval glory—full of knights, merchants, and festive scenes. We’ll admire the grand Palazzo della Ragione, once a courthouse, and uncover its intriguing stories and striking architecture.
Passing by the famous Caffè Pedrocchi, known as the “café without doors,” we’ll share the legends and history of this elegant landmark that played a key role in Padua’s cultural scene.
Our journey ends at the breathtaking Prato della Valle, one of the largest squares in Europe. Here, kids can run, explore small bridges and canals, and spot statues of historic figures while taking part in playful, location-based games.
Ideal for children ages 5–12, this tour offers the perfect mix of discovery, movement, and family fun — a memorable way to experience Padua together!
