Detailed itinerary
1
Along the promenade and past the traditional fishing boats we reach the elegant marina via a bridge. Here you can admire small sailing yachts, but also the super yachts of some celebrities. Here you can hear the first happy, Italian songs to the sound of the guitar.
2
The public gardens are always a surprise, due to their vastness, the variety of plants and the beautiful location by the sea. Here, too, there is music from your host.
The oldest and also most striking part is the so-called Boschetto, which dates back to 1825. From its name, one deduces that this garden is characterised by mixed vegetation (cork oaks, holm oaks, lime trees, carob trees) that ensures pleasant coolness even in summer.
3
We walk through the old town to the Wagner monument. There we will have a break with music.
4
We take the lift and standing cable car to the upper town and walk to the castle. Listen rock, Pop an Folk-music and some legends from the Gulf of Poets. Those who wish can see the museum with testimonies of the exciting history of the Gulf.
5
Via the majestic Art Nouveau staircase we return to the lower town and we go to the Cristo Rei Cathedral. There is a special acoustic in the imposing round cathedral. At the end of the tour, there is magical and sublime music that will stay in your memory for a long time.
