Verona & Lake Garda

Verona is one of the most beautiful and romantic cities in Italy. It is best known for its Shakespeare associations, being the city where Romeo and Juliette famously fell in love. However, there is much more to Verona than just its literary associations.

The city is a bustling center with a rich history dating back to when the Romans founded it. Its magnificent Arena, built in the 1st century, is still in use today and hosts the annual Opera Festival. The Adige River flows through the city, adding to its charm.

There are many beautiful churches and bridges in Verona, as well as plenty of regional wine and food from the Veneto hinterland. The city is also home to some impressive art collections. All this makes Verona one of the most attractive cities in northern Italy.

Poets, politicians, divas, and dictators have all been drawn to captivating Lake Garda, fascinated by its rippling waters in the north and charming villages surrounded by vineyards in the south. 

Imposing, charming, and unexpected: Lake Garda has so many different aspects when looking out over its waters, from Gardone Riviera or Sirmione, Peschiera or Riva del Garda.

The lake offers a diverse range of activities including water sports, hiking, cycling, and wine tastings. There are also several small villages dotted around the shoreline, which are worth exploring.

Visit Lake Garda for a glimpse of history, magnificent castles, and villas embracing the past with elegance. You'll experience the richness of this old world, interpreted in various ways, and savor it at the table with excellent local cuisine.
