The tour begins at the Old Town gates, where stone faces of palaces and a narrow Riva open onto a bay that keeps time differently. Your guide steps forward with a map; the clock tower blinks above and the scent of sea and simmering coffee follows as you move through an alley that narrows to a single carriage-width.

Expect cobbles and steps
Streets are mostly cobbled with short stair sections—choose sturdy, closed-toe shoes to stay comfortable.
Time it to avoid cruise crowds
Aim for early morning or late afternoon departures to dodge large cruise groups that flood the Riva mid-day.
Respect church dress codes
Bring a light scarf or cover-up if you plan to enter St. Tryphon and Orthodox churches—modest dress is requested.
Hydrate and carry a small map
Summer sun and narrow alleys can be disorienting—carry water and the provided map for quick reorientation.
Sturdy walking shoes
Grip on cobblestones and comfort for 1–2 km of walking are essential.
