Guided tour or audio guide
The cultural garden tourism activity at the Giardino dell'Impossibile is developed through guided tours lasting 1h and 30min. approximately, with two execution modes that alternate based on the chosen day and time of entry.
The first form of visit consists of a tour of the park traditionally conducted by tourist "escorts" with admission at set times and by reservation (by phone or email at: info@giardinodellimpossibile.it).
The second method is the "autonomous" visit with the use of an audio guide. In this case, the entrance time for the visit is extended to a period of about four hours and access to the park is still subject to a request/booking by telephone or via online ticket on the dedicated page on the website: www.giardinodelimpossibile.it . Once the dedicated audio guide has been downloaded on cecculare thanks to the QR code provided at the reception box office, the visit proceeds autonomously accompanied, in the narration, by a numbered succession of vocal tracks to illustrate the main points of interest of the place. The aid of indicator arrows, orange in colour, allow you to orient yourself along the visit route and signal, by means of a number reproduced on them, the next point of interest to reach and whose description to listen to through the corresponding vocal track, in progression .
The "talking panels" positioned in key points, display the plan of the park system which shows the layout of the visit itinerary with all the listening points numbered and located, allowing the visitor to know where they are both in the park than with respect to the path taken and/or still to be undertaken.
