Overview

  • Modena has a rebellious streak: its citizens built a vast marble cathedral without waiting for a bishop, and even went to war with a neighbouring city over a stolen wooden bucket. This self-guided walking tour lets you explore that storey and more at your own pace, with no groups and no fixed schedule. A smartphone audio guide narrates each stop like a conversation rather than a lecture, while interactive quizzes challenge you to unlock local secrets along the way. Everything runs directly from your phone, so there's no app to download and no physical guide required. Just start whenever you're ready and follow the route through Modena's UNESCO cathedral, the soaring Ghirlandina tower, and the grand Este ducal palace. The ticket also includes a free eSIM with data, so your map, directions, and audio work from the moment you land.
