Was a great walk getting to know Veronas history, landmarks and culture. We learned and enjoyed the tour. It was a good experience to know that there is more to Verona than Juliet.

Great tour by Laura, she was able to explain why Verona was significant starting with the Romans to the 20th century and why all yhe landmarks played a significant role in Verona's history. Highly recommend, grazie Laura!

Absolutely first class tour of Verona seeing the major sights but also the beautiful architecture our tour guide was passionate about sharing facts and curiosities about Verona. We were able to experience the history of life in Verona through the beautiful buildings and architecture. The guide was friendly and was easy to understand.

The tour was very slow. Laura did not talk when we were walking. I felt like we should have had more commentary. I always go on tours when visiting new places but this was the one time it did not go well. Laura was a nice person but she just did not like talking. It was very awkward when walking with nothing to say. I am hoping to do the tour again the next time we are in Verona but with a different guide.

It was lovely to see all the sites, and the history - there are SO many buildings with different historical times all mixed together - 12th century, next to 16th century, next to 14th century next to 20th century, all very close to a Roman arena and not far from a Roman amphitheatre. Also amazing for me was to hear that there was an element of truth in Shakespeare's play, even though he did not travel overseas ie there really were two families of Montague's and Della Capella, seeing the sign of the Cap, (denoting Della Capella household) at what is now known as Juliet's house, and hearing that a family Montague lived in what is now shown as Romeos house. It made Verona even more fascinating. The price was quite high for a walking tour.

Guide tour was excellent, sharing all facts and curiosities with love to Verona. We had great time and great dinner on base of recommendation.

Our tour was like a private tour with only 3 of us... which was great. It meant we could ask questions of our young guide as we went along and she had time to stop and tell us about the building/monument. Verona is a beautiful city and our guide showed us the best spots. We especially liked seeing the Adige river and hearing the history of the buildings on the opposite side of the river. I was surprised to hear the local delicacy is horse meat stew with Polenta! I would recommend this tour

Fun experience with an engaging guide. She took us all around and covered much ground. The only problem was that the tour did NOT include any access to any of the popular visiting sites that require admission. Could have saved my $ and just went on my own (as I eventually did)
