After a gentle introduction to the city’s food traditions, you’ll follow your Bergamo expert guide into the fascinating Città Alta, the historic upper town surrounded by majestic Venetian walls, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Here, narrow medieval streets, elegant squares and timeless corners set the scene for an immersive walk through the city’s most authentic soul.

Strolling along iconic routes such as Via Colleoni (the Corsarola), with its lively shops and historic buildings, you’ll discover some of Bergamo’s most celebrated landmarks: Piazza Mercato delle Scarpe, the Angelo Mai Library and the evocative Cittadella. While interiors may not always be accessible, the atmosphere and architectural beauty tell centuries of history at every step.

Throughout the tour, you’ll enjoy carefully selected gastronomic stops to taste local specialties: regional wine, traditional cured meats or cheese, and the beloved casoncelli, Bergamo’s signature pasta. The experience concludes with a final treat—either a coffee in a historic café or a taste of the famous stracciatella gelato, invented in Bergamo in 1961.
