Once in Sirmione, a jewel on the southern tip of Lake Garda, you will board a private boat to cruise the peninsula and take in panoramic views of the historic town and shimmering waters. The boat route provides excellent vantage points for the majestic Scaliger Castle and the famous Grottoes of Catullus, two of the area’s most evocative sights. As you glide across the lake you will enjoy the shifting colours of the water and the gentle breeze that frames this tranquil landscape.
After the cruise, allow time to explore Sirmione at your own pace. Wander narrow streets lined with artisan shops, sample regional delicacies, or relax in a lakeside café and watch daily life unfold. The combination of waterside scenery and medieval architecture creates a memorable setting for photography and discovery.
The outing concludes back in Verona with a classic Italian aperitivo: a Spritz tasting at sunset. Savour this refreshing cocktail as the sky softens and the city lights begin to glow, rounding off a day that blends history, nature and authentic local flavour.
