The best time to cruise the canals surrounding Padua is during summertime as it allows visitors to see the entire city from a totally traditional perspective.

You can go through the bike paths especially set up in different locations such as the romantic Battaglia Canal banks and Euganean Riviera. These paths offer scenic shortcuts that will take you through lovely villas and beautiful hills.

Lastly, discovering Padua will not be complete if you don’t take the fortified cities’ tour. This tour is particularly famous as it will give you the chance to get educated on the long and rich medieval history of Padua.
