Guide tips
Itinerary
Your tour begins at Teatro Ristori
Meet your guide in front of the elegant Teatro Ristori, where Verona's opera legacy lives on. As you set off through the city's medieval heart, anticipation builds. Every corner here holds a story written in stone and legend.
Admire Castelvecchio and Gavi's Arch
Stand before Castelvecchio's red-brick towers, where the Scaligeri lords once ruled this city with iron fists and grand ambitions. Cross the fortified bridge suspended over the Adige River, then pause at the Gavi Arch, a Roman triumphal gate.
Stroll through Piazza delle Erbe
Step into Piazza delle Erbe, where the pulse of Verona beats loudest. This sun-drenched square was the Roman forum 2,000 years ago, and market vendors still hawk fresh produce beneath frescoed facades.
Step into Piazza dei Signori and behold the Scaligeri Tombs
Pass through the archway into Piazza dei Signori, an intimate square wrapped in Renaissance elegance. Dante's marble gaze follows you as your guide reveals tales of political intrigue. Just steps away, the Scaligeri Tombs rise like Gothic spires, final resting places carved with such detail they seem to breathe.
See the famed Juliet's Balcony
Now comes the moment countless travelers dream of. Enter the courtyard of Casa di Giulietta, where love notes paper the walls and hope hangs thick in the air. Touch Juliet's bronze statue for luck, gaze up at the balcony, and let Shakespeare's words echo in your mind.
Enter the Verona Arena with skip-the-line access
Skip the long ticket lines and step inside the Arena, one of the world's best-preserved Roman amphitheaters. Your licensed guide reveals its 2,000-year history, from gladiator battles to modern opera, as you explore the ancient stone tiers.
Your tour finishes at the Arena in Piazza Bra
As your time together ends in the shadow of the Arena, you'll feel Verona differently now. The stones speak louder. The legends feel closer. Ask your guide where to dine like a local or which hidden corner to explore next before you part ways.
