Leave the Lake Garda region in the morning and sit back and relax on the journey south to the city of Verona. Known as the city of love, Verona is famous for its links to Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet but it’s also home to astonishing Roman ruins, Renaissance art, and operatic heritage.
Learn all about the city as you explore landmark-thronged squares like Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza dei Signori. See Juliet’s House (Casa di Giulietta) with its famous balcony, and hear fun facts about the house that’s dedicated to Shakespeare’s iconic love story.
See the Ponte Pietra, and admire Verona’s vast Roman amphitheater that’s known simply as the Arena. The stadium is thought to have seated around 30,000 spectators in its heyday.
After lunch, enjoy some time at leisure to browse the chic shops of Via Mazzini. Later, head back to your coach for the journey back to your start point in the Lake Garda region.

Booking the tickets was easy and meeting point was easy to find . The coach journey although quite long picking everyone up : was pleasurable.
Loved visiting the amphitheatre and Juliet’s statue and house . Definitely worth a visit !

We started out in pouring rain. Gabrialla led our tour and provided perfect guidance in English. Thankfully for the City centre walking tour it had dried up and we had a full English speekibg guide. This lady had a lot of valuable information but her mild delivery meant only those close to her would have heard. The arena was amazing, concerts held there now over the summer months bringing in 4-500,000 guests per year and all the associated revenue for Verona. We concluded with a visit to the Romeo & Julliet square and the famous balcony. A great days trip despite the terrible wet start.

Verona is a beautiful city. The Viator tour is very organised and we would recommend the day out. The guide is very informative. As we are older and were travelling from Riva Del Garda we appreciated the toilet stop on the way and if people wanted could grab a quick coffee or drink.

A great trip with an informative and very friendly guide. The walking tour was good (sometimes hard to hear with the number of tourists in the centre/ traffic but the headphones did help). Great to have free time and was enough for us to go up the tower, the castle bridge for views, see Juliette’s balcony, the arena and have a leisurely drink watching the world go by. Thanks for a great day!

A worthwhile day visit to Verona. The City Guide tour was excellent with Leonardo who spoke so passionately about his locality.
The guide on the bus was pleasant and funny but often smoked when ‘on duty’ which wasn’t professional.

An amazing trip, we had a lovely day in verona. Our tour guide was faultless and very helpful. Thank you for a lovely day xx

To pay the almost £50 per person for this trip is a scandal. We had a 1 hour guided tour not the 2 hours quoted and there were no headphones (as we saw with other groups) again as quoted so we had to huddle close to the guide. In total we were given 4 hours "free time" to do our own thing. So, in summary, we had a coach trip of about an hour each way and a 1 hour guided tour for the money. You can easily take a (cheap) bus or train to Verona yourself and a bit of research beforehand plus a visit to the tourist office in the centre of Verona for a free map and you can see all the things we saw on the guided tour at your own pace!
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Hello, thank you for your review which gives me the opportunity to respond describing what our tour includes.
The tour includes a round-trip transfer from Lake Garda to Verona, with no stops along the way (as indeed the public bus does, taking at least twice as long).
It includes a full-day guide, who will take care of organizing the day and giving you historical notions about Verona, the Arena and its Roman history. It will take you from the bus park to the city center of Verona in 10 minutes on foot and return in the afternoon.
Free time from 11:00 (arrival time in Verona) until 13:00 where the meeting with the guide will take place directly in Piazza Bra, a stone's throw from the Arena.
The walking tour with the city guide lasts approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Making it last longer is counterproductive with a temperature of 37 degrees like our summer days.
Visiting a city learning about what you see is only possible with a tour organized by an official guide of Verona. If you are not interested in history and culture (like you) then I do not recommend this tour.
From 14:30 to 16:30 free time. Meeting with the guide, departure for return by bus to Lake Garda
