Tours description.

There is currently two free walking tours provided by Lugano Tourism. Lugano – Unexpected Classic Tour (Free Tour) The charming actors will allow you to travel in time and get know the people and the places that have made the city great. Can we consider Lugano a modern town or one still connected to its ancient past? Glass skyscrapers and vanguard architecture or historical villas and districts of the old town centre? Which is its true nature? For those of you who want to discover Lugano’s many, multi-faceted characteristics and some of the city’s most meaningful places, this excursion is the best was to do so.

Tour operates between : 02 Apr – 22 Oct 2018 Every Monday 10am – 12pm

and Lugano through the eyes of an architect (Free Tour) Discover the 20th and 21st century architecture, which characterizes Lugano, embarking on a fascinating trip between our recent past and a present projected into the future. The Ticino architectural tradition has its roots before the year 1000: the “maestri comacini, intelvesi and campionesi” were born in this region. This tradition was renewed over the centuries. Our walk through Lugano gives you the opportunity to discover some of the most interesting buildings built on the shores of Lake Lugano in the 20th and 21st century. From Chiattone to Vacchini, from Tami to Botta, to the local university (USI) Campus, our tour will show you a new Lugano: you’ll be able to admire it from a different perspective.

Every Thursday from 10am to 12pm Tour operates between : 26 Apr – 18 Oct 2018
