About this experience

If you are looking for a way to discover the most authentic side of Verona in a relaxed and fun atmosphere, this is definitely the tour for you! We will walk you through both the most classic sites and also the hidden gems that most people miss out!
Our tour will give you great insights, fun stories, intriguing anecdotes and certainly won´t "lecture" you about the city.
We ´ve been guiding for almost 2 decades and we learned that listening to someone is way more difficult than talking to someone... We want our tours to be a fun experience rather than a boring lesson. To make it even more enjoyable, there will be time for a stop in one of our favourite bars for a coffee, a spritz, a prosecco or a glass of Valpolicella wine.. on us! After all, bars in Italy are some of the best places to enjoy the true local life!
Join us and discover the True Verona!
