Top Trieste Tickets & Passes

Visit Miramare Castle, a striking white structure with Gothic, Medieval and Renaissance design elements overlooking the Trieste Gulf on the Adriatic Sea. Built by Ferdinand Maximilian of Hapsburg during the late 1850’s, the castle is surrounded by rare and exotic plants and trees collected by the Duke, who was a renowned world explorer.

Visit two of eastern Italy’s most unique locations during this half-day excursion from Trieste. With your guide and small group of no more than 15 travelers, head to the Giant Cave, or Grotta Gigante, for a guided tour. Then, visit the Duino Castle, perched on a clifftop overlooking the Gulf of Trieste, for a guided tour of its lavish interiors and gardens before heading back to Trieste.

The 19th-century Miramare Castle overlooking the Gulf of Trieste is one of the area’s most spectacular sights, but reaching the castle from the center of Trieste can be a hassle. With this tour, skip the stress of the bus or taxi and instead enjoy transportation directly from the train station. Save time with priority entrance tickets and explore the sumptuous castle interiors and vast grounds and botanical gardens at your own pace.
