Lake Garda & Verona by Air
Fly into Verona, Italy and experience the very best of Lake Garda, as we travel the eastern shores visiting the most beautiful villages and towns on this popular holiday. See the spectacular castle of Sirmione, wander the narrow streets of Garda, why not indulge in a tipple or two and taste the local wine in Sarche and Cantina Toblino, or sail to the pretty towns of Limone and Malcesine. We then leave the shores of Lake Garda to partake in two amazing excursions to Venice and Verona. In Venice be sure to take in the famous sights, from the Bridge of Sighs to St. Mark’s Square, or why not experience the city from the waterways and take a traditional gondola ride? In Verona, there is so much to see from the ancient Roman Arena, to an abundance of fine palaces, churches and monuments. With the company of a local guide, you will be sure to get the very best from the city, which offers the setting for Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet.

Join our optional excursion to Venice, the largest city in the Veneto area. Venice is renowned for its beauty, architecture and its artwork. It is the world’s only pedestrian city, which makes it easy to explore on foot. Be sure to see some of the famous sights such as the Doge’s Palace, the symbolic seat of Venetian power and the enclosed Bridge of Sighs.
A visit to St. Mark’s Square, the principal public square of Venice, is also a must. It is dominated at its eastern end by the magnificent St. Mark’s Basilica, a superb example of the Romanesque-Byzantine style. Perhaps take a ride on a gondola, with your expert gondolier steering you through the busy waterways of Venice (at own cost) or maybe sit back and relax at Harry’s Bar with one of their famous Bellini cocktails, the choice is yours.
To make the most of your visit, why not join an optional Venice lagoon cruise where we view St Mark’s Square and several of the small islands including San Lazzaro degli Armeni, Sant’Erasmo and Vignole. We also pass Murano Island, famous for its glassmaking, before returning to St. Mark's Square.
