Everything went great. I was very pleased with the trip. Many thanks to the guide Kristina for a detailed story about Verona and taking care of us. And also a huge thank you to the bus driver, thanks to him we returned to the hotel quickly and without traffic jams.

Really enjoyable trip. Verona is beautiful and Alex the guide was really friendly and welcoming. Trip was perhaps an hour too long for me but the heatwave in Verona probably contributed to me feeling this way! Highly recommend this trip, well worth it.

We can highly recommend GET YOUR GUIDE. From the booking to the trip itself, everything was great. On site, we were well looked after by Riccardo regarding the departure point. Verona simply has to be seen and experienced.
