TRIESTE & MUGGIA & TRANSFER TO VENICE AIRPORT (DEBARK)

DETAILS

4^1/4
hrs Estimate Duration
Debark

Discover two architecturally rich Italian seaports with distinct Venetian influences just minutes from the border of Slovenia. While walking through the Old Town of often-conquered Trieste, the guide will elaborate on the city’s history, which will seem particularly relevant as you explore the 14th-century Cathedral of San Giusto and the ruins of the medieval complex that surrounds it. You might also view the Canal Grande, a waterway lined with centuries-old palazzi much like the canals in Venice. No wonder – a Venetian designed the Trieste canal in the mid-1700s. Nearby, you will find the little town of Muggia. The Venetian Republic began controlling this fishing village in the 1400s and left an indelible mark, as did Austria. As you stroll the narrow streets of Old Town on your own, be sure to look for Muggia Castle, which is now the private residence of a Muggia-born sculptor. Afterwards, you will transfer to the airport in Venice.

• Enjoy a walking tour through the Old Town of Trieste, parts of which look like Venice.
• Spend free time in Muggia, whose architecture reflects its past Venetian and Austrian rule.
• Make the most of your day before transferring to the Venice airport.

HELPFUL HINTS
