5.00What a fantastic day we had with our guide Anna. The day started cold and windy but ended in glorious sunshine and blue skies. Our group was small however we felt comfortable chatting with everyone as Anna’s relaxed and friendly style made us feel welcome. The history she shared was interesting and she made everyone feel included. Sirmione was busy, interesting with lots to explore. Our boat ride on Lake Garda to Lazise was fun and we had great views from the water. At Lazise we walked along the promenade in the sun and enjoyed a Select Spritz as recommended by Anna. The sunshine made such a different to the colours in our photos as the blues of sky and water were magical.
An enjoyable introduction to Lake Garda

4.00Great day trip from Verona! Would've loved a little extra time both in Sirmiano (I took the additional Grotto visit, which while great, left me with virtually no time to loose myself in this picturesque town) and Lazise. The boat trip on the lake was a lot of fun and the ride from and to Verona comfortable and relatively short.
Sirmione, nice place on the edge of Lake Garda

5.00We went back and forth from Verona to Sirmione using public transportation. It was quite calm. The city is very nice with many shops and restaurants. The lake is very beautiful and even better when seen from the castle tower. Worth a visit.
