Itinerary
See Verona through the eyes of someone who lives and loves it—wandering between ancient amphitheaters, hidden gardens, riverside paths, and lively piazzas. This isn’t a tour; it’s a flexible, personalized experience shaped around you. Before your walk, your host will send a short online Personalization Form to understand your interests—whether you're into Roman history, wine culture, architecture, or local secrets. Here are some places you might explore:
Stand before the Roman Arena where gladiators once fought and opera still echoes today. Verona’s largest square is where ancient spectacle and modern rhythm meet under open skies.
Walk beneath this majestic Roman gate, once the grand entrance to ancient Verona. Its weathered limestone arch still bears the weight of empire, welcoming you into centuries of history.
Step into this stately square, watched over by Dante’s statue and framed by noble palaces. Once the seat of Venetian power, it remains a quiet crossroads of poetry and politics.
Follow this arcaded riverside street, where faded columns and quiet corners tell forgotten tales. A tranquil stretch just beyond the crowds, it offers stories, shade, and a slower pace.
Cross Verona’s oldest bridge, rebuilt stone by stone after WWII. As the Adige flows beneath you, your host shares stories of floods, empires, and resilience.
Climb the hill—or take the funicular—and pause at the top for panoramic views over Verona’s rooftops, river bends, and bell towers. The perfect place to reflect and take it all in.

About Verona
Verona, in Veneto, is a Roman and medieval city on a loop of the Adige, with a vast arena, Juliet's balcony and Lake Garda close by.
The Adige curves around Verona's old centre, and the city's Roman past is plain to see in the Arena, an amphitheatre of the first century that still stages open-air opera in summer. Piazza delle Erbe, the market square on the old Roman forum, is lined with frescoed houses and has a column topped by the lion of Venice, and the Torre dei Lamberti beside it can be climbed. The historic city is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
