Verona express from Venice with-high speed train
Don’t miss the chance to visit the elegant and charming city of Verona from Venice and to relive the greatest romance of all times, on the footsteps of Romeo and Juliet.
You'll soak in the romantic atmosphere and with your expert guide, you'll relive Verona’s fascinating past, as the city has been inhabited for 2000 years with no interruptions. Because of its beautifully preserved old town and architecture from its origin as a Roman settlement to the Middle Ages and Renaissance, the city has been declared a World Heritage site by Unesco.
You'll feel as if traveling in the past by walking along the walls of Castelvecchio, an impressive, beautifully preserved Medieval castle with its dominating towers and bridge walls. This fortress is an important reminder of the role of the Scaligeri family in Verona, who stayed in power in the city for over 100 years. During the tour, you'll see other landmarks related to this powerful dynasty, such as the monumental family mausoleum and other administrative Palaces, such as the Palazzo della Ragione.
You'll visit the icon and stunning Arena: a nearly 2000-year old Roman Amphitheatre and the best preserved of its kind, thought to be older than the actual Colosseum in Rome. You'll access the Arena with skip-the-line tickets, so that you'll have plenty of time to admire its corridors, perfectly oval shape and interiors.
No tour of Verona would be complete without a visit to the famous courtyard of Juliet’s House, which hosts the statue of Juliet and from which we can see Juliet’s balcony.
You'll cover the most significant landmarks of the city, such as the monumental Porta Borsari, an ancient Roman City Wall and the stunning Piazza delle Erbe.
Now it's time to enjoy the city at your own pace: Verona offers a variety of shops as well as restaurants, cafes overlooking its iconic squares, where you can enjoy a very special evening, soaking up the atmosphere of this beautiful city.
*Please note that, in case of special events held at the Arena, we will provide an alternative itinerary visiting Juliet's House.
