Pesaro’s standout guided tours pack centuries of history into engaging half-day experiences. The outstanding Gradara Tour deserves special attention – you’ll walk ancient patrol routes and explore a magnificent fortress with only 6-8 fellow travelers, making it wonderfully intimate. For wine enthusiasts, the Tenuta la Viola winery tour in nearby Bertinoro is a winner, offering both education and generous tastings in a historic estate setting. I especially love these tours for their knowledgeable local guides and crowd-free approach. Let’s look at our favorite guided experiences in Pesaro.
