Discover Bergamo and visit its main monuments through the "eyes" of a local!
The main attractions, the most important monuments, the curiosities, the legends, the places frequented by the locals, the best restaurants, the typical dishes, and the anecdotes of people who have always lived in the city.
These are the elements I would like to find in a tour when I travel and that is exactly what you will find inside this digital tour!
Over the past 4 years I have accompanied more than 4000 tourists through the streets of my city (and continue to do so), but I created this guide to allow you to visit Bergamo Alta at your own pace: it will be like walking with a friend who will show you his city with anecdotes, tips and trivia.
Of course, there will also be information about the Città Bassa (lower town) that you will find at the end of the tour!
What will you need for this tour:
- Smartphone
- Internet connection
- Some energy!
You will walk about 1.7 km but it is feasible regardless of athletic training (so the tour must be done moving through the streets of Bergamo and not just by phone).
You can start the tour at any time: once purchased you will receive an email with the link to access the tour.
I have lived in the upper city, the historic center of the city of Bergamo, since I was born. I live in a 16th century tower house, built on the remains of a medieval tower , which has been in our family for many generations. I love my city and especially the historic center and its villages. Growing up there I discovered its uniqueness and the ancient stories that still remain alive and present, even if hidden within the walls of the buildings and in the side streets. Small magical corners of the ancient city that are too often overlooked by those who visit. Our tower house also preserves many of them, but only by entering with me is it possible to discover them. I am always happy to be able to share our story with anyone who is curious enough to know it. We will start from the entrance of the tower house on the ground floor and go up the stairs of the sundial tower, thus gradually discovering the evolution of the building over the centuries, but also of the city of Bergamo itself. We will enter the top two floors furnished with furniture and furnishings from the various eras that characterized the lives of those who lived there. You will thus arrive at the top of the tower but be careful... without a lift. You will feel like you are reliving the times that once were firsthand, surrounded by family objects and heirlooms, an experience that will make you love our beautiful city and its most secret peculiarities even more. Finally, from the windows on the top floor, you will enjoy the view that sweeps over the roofs, the Lower Town below and the profile of the Orobic Prealps. From December 8th until the Epiphany it will also be possible to see our large nativity scene which, every year as per family tradition, we prepare with ancient figurines from Veneto, Bergamo, Neapolitan and many others . The tour in the Tower House does not include a visit to the historic center. The Hospitality map of Città Alta is free to all participants. The tour DOES NOT include a visit to the historic center.
