Italy: Lake Garda

Explore lakeside gems on this eight-day adventure through northern Italy. Based at Lake Garda and with airport transfers for your convenience, you’ll discover Mesolithic remains at Manerba del Garda, sit down to lunch at a local winery and join a guided walking tour through Verona. Stroll through the romantic city, famed for its Roman Arena, see Juliet’s balcony and cruise across Lake Garda to Sirmione. Learn about the ancient ruins at Grotte di Catullo and enjoy plenty of free time to explore at your own pace – maybe visit Scaliger Castle or join your fellow travellers for a pizza feast!Summer temperatures can be extreme in many regions of Italy (over 40°C), which can be uncomfortable. It’s essential to use sun protection, wear layers to combat the heat and drink plenty of water. Please consider the time of the year you wish to travel and your suitability to that season.
