5.00Tour was well organised. It was great to go to 2 places on Lake Garda as well as taking the optional grotto tour. The grotto tour only lasted about an hour, but was really interesting with stunning views. You get chance to walk down to Jamaica Beach too. It was a nice insight into our first Lake Garda trip
Fantastic day on Lake Garda

5.00Lorenzo was a very friendly guide. He looked after us very well. We had plenty of time to enjoy Sirmione and Lazise at our own pace. Lovely to swim in Lake Garda and the speedboat trip across the lake was a lot of fun. Would go again.
5* experience worth every Penny for all ages

5.00This trip is worth every penny. I am 34 and travelling with my 86 year old grandmother and we both loved ot there is something for everyone. A total of 10 people in our group. Every instruction was clear, the guide Romie, was amazing her knowledge of the surrounding areas of Verona, lake garda, Sirmione and Liaise' history and recommendations for restaurants/ice cream and hydrating snacks was brilliant. Romie, our guide was jolly and ever so kind. We definetly saw more than we would do if we were left to our own devices. The mini bus is air conditioned, about a 30mins journey at the start to Simione which is picturesque! Fabulous atmosphere something for everyone we walked right to the end of the peninsula and spent time at jamaica beach putting our feet into the warm warter of lake garda. We went on the small bus which is €1.50 each way and save the tiresome walk of about 10mins up the hill and back down well worth the money again. We walked all around Sirmione and experiences the thermal springs. After 2 hours we met again and had a fantastic boat ride around Sirmione and then across lake garda to Liaise taking around 45mins. Again fantastic experience. Liaise is a smaller village with interesting history finally retuning to our meeting point in a 25min air con minibus. Also there are fresh drinking water around both Sirmione and Liaise. All of the people speak English where ever you go. A must to get the best out of your experience in Verona/Lake Garda.
Lake Garda is spectacular!

This tour was everything...

5.00This tour was everything we expected and more! Our tour guide Rommina was absolutely amazing. She was super friendly and it was clear that her main goal was for us to learn about the towns and to have a blast, which surely happened! We started the day at our meeting point at 8:50 am in Verona, which was easy to find. The bus ride there was comfortable and went by fast with introductions. Once we got off the bus in Sirmione, Rommina walked us around all the good spots and then let us go free for a couple of hours before the boat, which was perfect for shopping and grabbing something for lunch. The boat ride was very enjoyable and she gave us more information on the lake and towns surrounding. From there, we got off the boat in Lazise and spent a short amount of time there before heading back. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Verona. My friend and I both agree that it was worth every penny. Grazie mille, Rommina!
