This tour is excellent, especially if you don't have a lot of time in Verona. Fabio is a wonderful guide and story teller who clearly loves what he's doing. If you only have time for one tour and you love a bit of history, this is the tour to be doing.

Awesome tour, really enjoyed it. The tour guide Benedetta was very knowledgeable, even pointing out the small details that would generally be missed, she made it really fun with her great attitude - would definitely recommend this tour! 10/10

Fabio’s tour was amazing and one of my favourite ever walking tours. He is so passionate and took us on a journey through the history of his amazing city. I had a great time and highly recommend booking this tour:

The tour was really informative and not the usual tourist-trap. The guide was knowledgeable and he was able to keep my attention and curiosity. Highly recommended!

Was only here for 2-3 hours and was able to do 4-5 activities! Would recommend getting this pass if in Verona!
