Verona and Sirmione by Lake Garda worth the visit - Another successful and enjoyable tour from Viator! I have been biikung with them since many years ago. This must be my 5th or 6 th time and always satisfied! Thanks to our tour guide Jaenelle and Francesco, who was so knowledgeable about Brescia,.the history & culture...including stories about Dante and stories about the legends of the families of Romeo & Juliet! Good job! Verona is worth the visit ( if only for the Arena) and also the very pretty town of Sirmione by Lake Garda! Beautiful place with lots of shops and restaurants, and if course the beautiful Garda lake.

Two great places to visit at comfortable speed - The whole experience was first class from the onboard guide to the brilliant guide at Verona. In Sirmione we took the option to go out on the boat around the headland which was a lot of fun and well worth it

I recommend this trip - A guide in Verona Franchesko was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, artistic. But we had difficulty to find the bus in Bergamo. Confusing directions. Great trip.

Great trip - Loved this trip, very organised and professional. Verona was lovely but very crowded as expected and we really enjoyed trip to the Roman theatre, the guide who took us around verona was very knowledgeable and passionate about his city.

This Verona and Lake Garda tour is not to be missed! 💯 - This tour was amazing. Very informative, the guides are lovely and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this to anyone coming to visit Bergamo. I went with my family and they loved it too. Verona was a beautiful city. Romeo and Juillet balcony was a delight. Although it was busy and crowded, it was great to go see it. Roman Arena of Verona. It was stunning to see and walk around We had some free time then to explore and have lunch. Sirmione in Lake Garda was beautiful. I would recommend doing the boat trip. It was totally worth 15 euro cash for it. This is separate from the tour. It was a very enjoyable day and I saw lots whilst on this tour. Thank you all for the tour.

Memorable day - Verona was lovely and the guide made that part of the trip most interesting. Sirmione was the most memorable part of the day. Beautiful place, we both loved it very much so. I would recommend this trip to a friend.

Verona & Lake Garda - Great trip content. Well informed and pleasant guides. Andrea's tour around Verona was full of unusual facts and very entertaining. Juliet's house very crowded, only to be expected, but Andrea still managed to make it enjoyable. Only complaint is that first coach stop at service station very rushed. No time to drink coffee as order took so long to be delivered. Maybe think about longer stop or perhaps let them know what time you are arriving and how many people there will be to serve at same time.

Great Trip, adjustment to times at each location would be ideal - Great day out, guide Monika was helpful and informative saw all we wanted to in Verona, only point we would make is that two hours free time in Verona was a bit too long while after a boat trip in Simione there was very little time to explore the town. One hour less in Verona and an extra hour in Simione would have been ideal. Apart from that great trip.

Disappointed - We were disappointed with this tour. First a young lady who was disengaged walked us to the gondola while explaining what we were going to see while in the gondola. The group was huge, she was walking fast so some people fell behind, and we could barely understand her English. When we got on the gondola, the gondolier didn't even say hello, goodbey, or explain anything. He was talking to all the other gondoliers except for his guests. So it was not a guided tour.
