Minivan transfer from Ravenna Centre to Porto Corsini Cruise Terminal

In the heart of Ravenna, the capital of mosaic which boasts the beauty of 8 UNESCO monuments, Patrimony of the Humanity, you can create a precious mosaic jewel in a real artisan workshop, where the materials employed are used in little manufactures of Venice and Florence.   Barbara, an expert mosaicist, will receive you with warmth in her laboratory and after a good coffee, she will tell you about the techniques of the byzantine mosaics and contemporary ones and of the high-quality materials employed.

Enjoy the evening meal of some of the special guests who are being treated at the Cestha Center (Experimental Center for Habitat Protection), a non-profit research organization, whose mission is environmental protection. The Research Centre, composed of researchers and specialists from the natural sciences, marine biology and veterinary medicine, deals with conservation programmes for endangered species and the promotion of sustainable management activities.   Your visit to the Marine Fauna Recovery Centre, located in the complex of the ancient Fish Market in Marina di Ravenna, converted in recent years into a marine research centre, will be led by this very team of biologists. The experience is suitable for everyone and takes place in the context of environmental education, to raise awareness of today's issues: waste, proper use of plastic and respect for the environment. You will meet up close the turtles now being treated at the centre, learn about their history, clinical diagnosis, healing process and release into the sea. Finally, for those who wish, it will be possible to experience the thrill of actively participating in the daily feeding of some of the patients. The contribution of participation in this activity is aimed at supporting the fish fauna housed there, such as the turtles that are the protagonists of this 'experience'; but it also has another important and very heartfelt purpose: that of forming in all of us, starting from an early age, an environmental awareness that will accompany us and grow over time. In addition, the income will enable the Centre to bear the many expenses involved in managing this particular 'hospital', such as the cost of medicines, therapies and specialist veterinary examinations. In fact, the Centre supports itself thanks to its dissemination initiatives, as it receives no public funding for the care and management of sea turtles.

Ravenna, the city of mosaics... and not only!   Through this tour, we would like to tell you a story which has Ravenna as stage of important events, a treasure chest of wealth, an ancient and contemporary artistic workshop, a source of inspiration for many authors such as Dante Alighieri, Gustav Klimt and Lord Byron, and some contemporary street artists such as Kobra and Blub.    Starting from Piazza San Francesco, from the Zone of Silence, guardian of Dante's Tomb, and passing through Piazza del Popolo, you will be able to enter into the heart of the historical center of Ravenna to explore what has characterized a great past not to mention its curiosities.   Through this walk, we want to show you the spaces and actors that portray Ravenna in a different way, traveling between history and taste: discovering the "Mosaic Capital" and concluding with an aperitif inside the Covered Market based on Spritz and traditional Piadina.
