You will take a day trip from Bergamo to discover Verona and Sirmione, two destinations that combine history, romance and scenery on the shores of Lago di Garda. Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, you will explore one of the most beautiful cities in northern Italy and visit a charming lakeside town shaped by its Roman and medieval heritage.
The experience begins in Verona, a city that has prospered since the Middle Ages and is especially known for its connection to the story of Romeo and Juliet. During the guided walking tour, you will be able to approach Juliet's famous balcony and stroll through narrow streets, historic squares and corners of the old town that preserve the charm of different eras.
The tour also includes the Arena di Verona, an exceptionally well-preserved Roman amphitheater that remains one of the city's great symbols. Still used for concerts and operas during the summer season, this monument reflects Verona's historical importance and its ties to the legacy of ancient Rome.
Afterwards, you will have free time to continue exploring Verona at your own pace, wander through its medieval streets, admire Renaissance palaces or enjoy the atmosphere of the historic center. This break will allow you to discover the city in a more personal way before continuing to Lago di Garda.
The day continues in Sirmione, a town set between the blue waters of Lago di Garda and green olive groves. There you can stroll through its medieval streets, see the Rocca Scaligera castle surrounded by water and, if you wish, visit the ancient Roman ruins that recall the presence of this civilization in the area. At the end, you will take home an experience that combines literature, Roman history, medieval architecture and the natural beauty of one of Italy's most famous lakes.
