Quality condensed in a 3 hour tour with Maurio - Glad we decided to take a guided tour. Our host was Maurio, guiding us along the monuments, through the streets, telling us the local historical stories, in a 3 hour tour, that passed so quickly. Worth every penny.

Great experience - SUPER GUIDE - we were lucky that firstly there were only three of us (our family) and secondly with Mauro we had a very great guide for this super interesting guided tour of Verona. He has explained very entertainingly, we always had enough time for photos and he could answer our questions very individually. Thank you - GRAZIE MILLE 👌😊

Juliet’s balcony scene - Murray was an excellent guide. Spoke excellent English, and is very knowledgeable about the city of Verona. Visited the Arena, Pz Bra, old castle, city walls, funicular to high vista of the city. Walked through the city, the ancient city buildings, the city market and ended up at Juliet’s balcony. Exceptional handling of the tour guests, especially a couple of seniors (me and my wife). We were treated specially. We got to Juliet’s balcony. Waiting line was going to be at least an hour. Our guide had a great friend who has a shop which backs up to the balcony. Walked right into see the balcony with no lines and no crowded areas. WOW!

Quick tour - Our guide was so sweet and insightful. The tour was well rounded with a mix of history, culture and food suggestions. I liked the small tour size. Tip, pack an empty water bottle, wear walking shoes, and bring a hat in the summer. The pace was not too fast and not too slow, but not recommended for people with mobility issues. Good tour.
