★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 8 reviews · from $127

Travel from Mestre to Verona and Sirmione with an English or Spanish-speaking tour leader. You’ll see Juliet’s House and Verona’s Arena, then cruise Lake Garda by private boat past Scaliger Castle and the Grottoes of Catullus. Free time is included, but the schedule is brisk.

“As the agency brought together different groups, we had to leave Venice early, pick up a group in Verona, and then return to Verona at the end of the day. Despite the complimentary Spritz, the logistics were exhausting. Not to mention that we had little time to enjoy the drink—the second drink we were offered as compensation for the boat tour that was canceled due to bad weather (rain and strong wind) couldn't be drunk because we had to return to Venice.”
