Know Before You Go: - Please check your email the day before the tour to receive important information. - Please note that the number of attractions depends on the selected option. A guided tour of the city of Pavia with entry to the Pavia Cathedral is not included in the basic 4-hour option. - Church tours during scheduled events (such as the daily, Sunday and holiday masses) are limited. If Pavia Cathedral is closed at the time of your visit, we will replace it with the Basilica di San Michele Maggiore or a similar attraction. We will arrange private transfers in a standard car (sedan) for groups of 1-4 people, and in a large van for groups of 5 people and more. If you're travelling in a smaller group but want to travel in a more spacious car, we recommend booking a tour for 5 people to take advantage of a larger vehicle. During the 8-hour tour, lunch can be arranged upon request.
