We had a great time on this trip. Verona and Sirmione were well worth a visit! The boat ride on lake Garda was a nice addition but it wasn’t made clear that it was a cash only payment. Other than that it was a good trip

Salvatore our guide was amazing! He gave an overview of Italy history and how the background and history of Verona and Lake Garda. The local guide in Verona was also very funny and made all the historical places come to life. The timing for the walking tour was just nice. He also gave interesting facts on the culture of Verona. Would be good to do some research before going to make reservation for lunch otherwise you would like end up in the queueing and all the places are quite packed during lunchtime. Juliet house was very packed. We took the optional ride at Sirimione which was fantastic. The view from the lake was fantastic. The skies were clear and every thing was beautiful! Towards to the end, the sunset was cotton candy pink skies~ the timing was just nice for the tour.

The local guide in Verona was superb. Andrea has an outstanding knowledge of Verona.. Made its history and beauty come alive . Had been to Verona before but this time I actually truly understand the city all thanks to him. He made the trip Was disappointed boat trip in Lake Garda wasn’t available- they canceled due to wind but when we got to the lake there was no wind at all. It was beautiful to walk through it though Overall the tour gave you enough time to appreciate both areas- it wasn’t rushed and that is a huge plus - you actually feel like you have time to explore and see each place !

Frankly, we consider this tour to be a truly mammoth experience. The views were jaw dropping and indeed mesmerizing. We took lots and lots of photos for our future recollection of this unique experience.

Beautiful trip and tour guidance was amazing . It was a rainy day and I wasn’t expecting that weather. Tour doesn’t include a food or drink. My trip meant to be verona but I was late for like 10 min. so I have to pay €60 for penalty for me and my two children to go the lake Como and Bellagio as reschedule trip. I guess penalty doesn’t need it and it didn’t inform in website that there will penalty.

We visited Verona and Sirmione. Both cities were amazing and fun to explore. Luckily we had a lot of free time for that. The tour was well organized: comfortable buses drove us quickly, the guide in Verona was very delightful and full of knowledge, we got enough tips to enjoy our free time. Recommended if you have only 1 day but want to visit these beautiful places!

Barbara the guide was fantastic she was knowledgeable and the trip was great issue I had I called viator and chatted with them weeks before your to make sure I would be dropped back at hotel both people I spoke to said I would and that was not true they drive me there but after trip I was dropped at where meeting place was and had to figure way back on my own as far as tour was excellent as far as communication. With viator and having them be accurate was horrible even after checking and confirming twice

This was an excellent tour. The tour guide was very knowledgable and allowed good free time for shopping. She attended the boat tour with us in Lake Garda which was simply awesome. This is a well worth tour.
