Cristina_P, Sep 2025
It was okay, we expected more information would be shared with us about the history. Couldn’t hear her and felt like we could have learned more from the guide. She was very friendly though and kept us on track which is hard to do with a group.

Wonderful Guide and Tour!

A very knowledgeable guide who showed us the main sights of Verona and gave us a good introduction to the history of the town,

Great!

Melanie_L, May 2025
The guide was quite hard to find , she needed a tall pole with VIATOR written on it! She was a very lovely and knowledgeable lady, well worth doing this trip.

It was okay, could have been better.

Sarah_W, Apr 2025
It was ok. The host was nice but looked tired and unenthusiastic. A little hard to understand at time and did not answer our questions about bars to recommend. When we have had city tours before, it is nice to have someone fun and enthusiastic and engaging. Expensive for the average experience.

The food, wine and the people we met from all over the world. The wine store and tasting was terrific. We enjoyed Lorenzo very much.

Very pleasant and well informed guide

Dermot_O, May 2024
The historical facts and humorous anecdotes as related by our guide. Being a group of only 6 meant that there was plenty of interaction between the guide and each participant

Super Tour

Kathy_M, May 2024
Our guide Luisa was friendly, extremely knowledgeable and committed to her home , Verona. We learned so much from her and felt perfectly set up to enjoy our stay in Verona !

Wonderful stay in Venice

Lora_J, May 2024
We had a fantastic stay! This spot is steps from the San Marco square. We had a large 2 bed room and it was perfect for my daughter and I. I would stay again.

Fantastic guide! Enjoyable day!

patti_b, May 2024
Laura was our guide. Her English was wonderful and she made a big effort to share her love of Verona with us, It made a big difference of what we saw and learned. This was THEE best tour we had in all of Italy.

Fantastic tour!

JaneCorzineAllen, May 2024
Luisa is fantastic guide. She has lived in Verona most of her life. She knows the back ways to go to miss the crowd and knows her history and architecture. She had stories to tell and made our tour so interesting!

Must do if visiting Verona for the first time or want to learn about the rich history!

JONATHAN_L, Mar 2024
Great tour by Laura, she was able to explain why Verona was significant starting with the Romans to the 20th century and why all yhe landmarks played a significant role in Verona's history. Highly recommend, grazie Laura!

Beautiful old buildings.

Michael_B, Mar 2024
Laura was very knowledgeable about the area and was easy to listen to. She spoke at our level which was good. Beautiful area to look at.

Loved the experience and every part of the tour

JUANANTONIO_R, Mar 2024
We really enjoy the trip around Vero an our guide very professional and with loads of data to share with us! Great experience

Highly recommended tour of Verona history

David_N, Mar 2024
Absolutely first class tour of Verona seeing the major sights but also the beautiful architecture our tour guide was passionate about sharing facts and curiosities about Verona. We were able to experience the history of life in Verona through the beautiful buildings and architecture. The guide was friendly and was easy to understand.

Nit a lot of talking

Rinda_B, Dec 2023
The tour was very slow. Laura did not talk when we were walking. I felt like we should have had more commentary. I always go on tours when visiting new places but this was the one time it did not go well. Laura was a nice person but she just did not like talking. It was very awkward when walking with nothing to say. I am hoping to do the tour again the next time we are in Verona but with a different guide.

Guide tour was excellent,...

Adriana_R, Oct 2023
Guide tour was excellent, sharing all facts and curiosities with love to Verona. We had great time and great dinner on base of recommendation.

Nice paid walk

Paul_G, Oct 2023
Fun experience with an engaging guide. She took us all around and covered much ground. The only problem was that the tour did NOT include any access to any of the popular visiting sites that require admission. Could have saved my $ and just went on my own (as I eventually did)

Exceeding expectations

Kim_W, Oct 2023
The lot. Very thorough and informative tour. The guide was excellent. Attentive, knowledgeable and pleasant.

Great tour of Verona history.

Cyndy_C, Oct 2023
Laura was a great source of Verona information. She was very helpful in explaining the rich history of the city - far beyond the limited and imposed Shakespearean creation. Highly recommend.

Photography_I, Sep 2023
The trip was very informative and enjoyable. The guide Laura was friendly and took time to explain the history of the city and the points of interest

Great, informative guide....

Kathleen_S, Sep 2023
Great, informative guide. Able to not only give the basic information but able to answer many questions.

Verona tour with Luisa

tptd75gsm8, Aug 2023
Luisa made for a great guide, well-prepared and accommodating my myriad questions about different epochs for the city of Verona. Very passionate guide, who is a city native, had interesting perspective on the city’s past and current tourism driven by the Romeo & Juliet saga (skip that part at all cause).

Interesting

Louise_B, Aug 2023
There were quite a few long gaps of silence whilst we were walking. A few in between comments would have been welcome.
