We 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.

To see a lot in a short time with no complications this tour is a must. We were staying in Verona and wanted to experience a bit of Lake Garda for future visits. This was spot on and we will return. Well organized and staffed. A winner!

The tour guide-Alysha- was highly knowledgeable and had a calm, warm presence that elevated our experience of the tour. Sirmione was such a mystical place and the best part was there were less crowds compared to other tourist spots in Italy when we came. Boat ride was well executed and the view was everything we could have hoped for. I recommended this tour to any tourist who I came across and now recommending to anybody reading this. Money well spent!

It was okay, would have enjoyed a bit more history and stories as we made our way from Verona to Sirmione. The guide was pleasant, but not especially informative. The boat ride felt a bit dicey though not outright scary as that the wind was blowing. Sirmione is very touristy. There was some pretty scenes viewed from the boat, but not as lovely compared to other places I visited in Northern Italy.

Had a very nice day with a boat tour on Lake Garda, a guided tour around Sirmione and a wonderful lazy lunch and shopping time in Lazise. I was happy to explore parts of Italy I had never seen before and Beatriz was an excellent guide. The only thing about the tour that I felt could be better was having a slightly smaller group. We were about 19 people and it seemed quite busy overall. I feel like a smaller number of individuals would have made the overall experience a bit more intimate and fun.

This was a very easy going visit to the Lake Garda region with stops in Sirmione and Lazise. Anna, our guide filled us in on local on information on the bus rides to and from the sites and provided us with historical and culinary details in both locations. Lovely chilled day.

A fantastic, nearly 8 hour day trip to Lake Garda. This incorporated return minibus travel from Verona, a boat trip around Sirmione, ferry ride to Lazise, short walking tours around both places and free time to explore them as well. The towns were stunning, both boat rides relaxing, and there were lovely places to eat and drink. Our guide, Louisa, was excellent; very knowledgeable and friendly.

One of the best tours I've been on. The group was small, so we really got to know each other and talk freely with the guide. Highly recommend!
