Start the day by meeting your guide in the heart of Verona. From there, you’ll board a comfortable minibus and head to Sirmione, one of the lake’s most charming villages.

Once there, enjoy a scenic boat tour around the Sirmione peninsula, with stunning views of lakeside villas, the medieval castle, and the Roman ruins of the Grotte di Catullo. Then, explore the historic streets of Sirmione on a guided walking tour, uncovering the hidden gems that make this lakeside town so unique.

Enjoy some free time to shop, savor a lakeside lunch, or even take a refreshing swim during the summer.

In the afternoon, hop on a ferry to Lazise, where you’ll have more free time to explore the quaint town at your own pace. Stroll through the cobbled streets, stop at local boutiques for souvenirs, or relax with a gelato or glass of wine by the lake.

Finally, meet your guide again for the return journey to Verona.

Romina was a friendly and excellent guide who looked after us for the entire trip. She answered all our questions and even gave us recommendations for where to eat, etc. The meeting point was easy to find and there was a good balance between tour time and free time. I would say this is a trip most suited for adults and children over 16, as the focus is on history and walking/shopping etc, so for very young children this would not be suitable. We arrived back in Verona on time at 4.30 and I would highly recommend this trip.

This is a fabulous tour and Serena was an excellent guide. I have only given three stars because we had several babies on the tour with us. The youngest screamed all the way to the Lake in the coach and continued on the walking tour until we were able to split up. This tour is not suitable for young children. The history and culture relating to the villages around the Lake is of no interest to them. There was nowhere for them to have a proper rest in the 7.5 hours we were out in heat of 35 degrees. I suggest there should be an age limit for this tour. I cannot recommend it while there is a risk of having young children present.
