About this activity

This walking tour offers a truly local take on Verona—far beyond the standard sightseeing route.

Itinerary

  1. Verona

    Passing by

    See Verona through the eyes of someone who lives and loves it—wandering between ancient amphitheaters, hidden gardens, riverside paths, and lively piazzas. This isn’t a tour; it’s a flexible, personalized experience shaped around you. Before your walk, your host will send a short online Personalization Form to understand your interests—whether you're into Roman history, wine culture, architecture, or local secrets. Here are some places you might explore:

  2. Piazza Bra

    Passing by

    Stand before the Roman Arena where gladiators once fought and opera still echoes today. Verona’s largest square is where ancient spectacle and modern rhythm meet under open skies.

  3. Porta Borsari - World Heritage Site

    Passing by

    Walk beneath this majestic Roman gate, once the grand entrance to ancient Verona. Its weathered limestone arch still bears the weight of empire, welcoming you into centuries of history.

  4. Piazza dei Signori

    Passing by

    Step into this stately square, watched over by Dante’s statue and framed by noble palaces. Once the seat of Venetian power, it remains a quiet crossroads of poetry and politics.

  5. Via Sottoriva

    Passing by

    Follow this arcaded riverside street, where faded columns and quiet corners tell forgotten tales. A tranquil stretch just beyond the crowds, it offers stories, shade, and a slower pace.

  6. Ponte Pietra

    Passing by

    Cross Verona’s oldest bridge, rebuilt stone by stone after WWII. As the Adige flows beneath you, your host shares stories of floods, empires, and resilience.

  7. Piazzale Castel San Pietro

    Passing by

    Climb the hill—or take the funicular—and pause at the top for panoramic views over Verona’s rooftops, river bends, and bell towers. The perfect place to reflect and take it all in.
