Delicious and Interesting Verona

What to Expect

• You will see the famous balcony of Juliet and the house of Romeo, as well as learn about other iconic places and traditions related to Shakespeare's characters.
• On Piazza dei Signori, we will talk about wine, the great Dante, and his descendants who linked their lives to Verona.
• We will look at the mausoleum in the very center of the city, where under Gothic canopies in marble sarcophagi lie the medieval rulers of Verona from the Della Scala family.
• We will complement our aesthetic pleasure with gastronomy by visiting a family shop on the promenade. You will taste the famous local red wine Valpolicella or white Soave accompanied by excellent Veronese cheese and homemade salami.
• We will stroll through the most romantic medieval lane in the city. You will discover legends associated with local cuisine and the fame of Veronese as the most 'crazy' inhabitants of the region.
• Exiting at the Roman bridge, we will take the funicular to the panoramic hill of San Pietro, where lovers come to watch the sunset, and from where you can enjoy views of the Roman theater stage, Giusti Garden, Veronese bell towers, and temples.
