About this trip

Look around – learn – do it yourself: with our “Make your own Souvenir with short Walking Tour” experience you’ll be able to combine a walking tour to some important sites in Ravenna, a private mosaic-making class and the creation of your own souvenir in just approximately in 3 hours! Here’s the 3 stadium of creation you’ll go through:

​

Stadium no. 1: Get inspired by the past
To create something noticeable it’s surely important to take inspiration from the greats of the past. What can be possibly greater than The Western Roman Empire in Ravenna? Your expert local guide will bring you to some important UNESCO sites in the city centre, such as the Church of San Vitale and the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, explaining their historical background, in order to let these stunning gems of the early Christian Byzantine art properly inspire your creative soul.

​

Stadium no.2: Get the basics of knowledge
In order to guide your creativity and make the best of your artistic skills, it is important to learn from the Masters. You’ll be led to the Mr. Miyagi of mosaic-making in Ravenna, a private teacher from one of the best mosaic workshops in town, in order to learn everything about this art and its tools and techniques. This special 2-3 hours full immersion experience will let you become more and more confident about your capabilities.

​

Stadium no. 3: Get your hands dirty!
Now you are officially ready to get your hands dirty: it’s time to express yourself and make your own unique artwork. You’ll be given glass paste, colors and all the tips necessary to bring back home the best souvenir ever… the rest will surely come from you.
