About this experience

This tour involves a full day exploration of Lake Garda and Valpolicella, departing from Verona at 9.00 am. Travelers will first visit Sirmione, where a motorboat ride will provide views of the Grotte di Catullo, ancient Roman ruins. If it rains, participants will instead explore a 13th-century medieval castle. Afterward, there will be time to stroll through Sirmione's historic center before heading to a winery. At the winery, guests will sample a selection of Valpolicella DOC and DOCG wines accompanied by an Italian light lunch. The wines include Valpolicella, Ripasso, Amarone, and Recioto, highlighting their unique styles and characteristics. The tour takes place against the backdrop of scenic hills and vineyards. This experience suits those interested in wine and culture but may not be ideal for those seeking a fast-paced itinerary.

Good to know

  • Please notice
  • the tour leader, in respect of all the guests, will wait for you in case of late maximum for 15 minutes.
  • We want you to spend a lovely day with no distress so, please, in booking our tours, inform us if you have limited mobility (in some old cellars there are stairs); or if you have any intolerance or allergy about food/wine
  • We ask you to inform us if you have any appointment after the tour (if you booked a train ticket, an opera show in Arena or a reservation for a restaurant), so we can do our best to respect the schedule.
  • In the cellar the temperature is constant 15 Celsius degrees (59 Fahrenheit), so we suggest to take with you a sweater or a jacket; if it will be possible we will try to show you the vineyards, so it’s recommended to wear sneakers or comfortable shoes.
