One Day in Verona (Walking Itinerary + Map)
- Milena Yordanova
- August 20, 2024
Located in the Veneto region of Italy, Verona is a small city right between Venice and the famous Lake Garda. Although it’s mostly known for its connection to Shakespeare’s tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, the city has so much more to offer!
Steeped in historic charm with ancient Roman ruins, a medieval fortress, breathtaking piazzas and river views, Verona has everything you can desire. Not to mention the delicious regional food and famous wines, Amarone and Recioto della Valpolicella!
Just an hour away by train, Verona is a very popular day trip from Venice. Besides this, if you plan a day trip to Lake Garda, this is the best location to base yourself.
Planning to spend a few days in Venice as well? Then take a look at my 3-day itinerary for Venice . It covers all the must-see sights, including how to skip all the lines and how to see Murano and Burano in just one day.
One day in Verona itinerary
It’s important to know what are the key sights, so you can make the most of your one day in Verona. You’ll find all the essential information in my guide, including what attractions to see, why to buy the Verona card and where to eat.
This guide is perfect for all staying 1-2 nights in Verona as well as for those planning to explore the city on a day trip from Venice.
At the end of this suggested itinerary for one day in Verona, you’ll find a map (with all attractions and restaurants’ websites).
Already have a hotel booked? Then take a look at my guide to the best area to stay in Verona and make sure your hotel has a convenient location for exploring the city.
1 Day in Verona (best day trip itinerary)
- Start the day with breakfast at Pasticceria Camesco
See the famous Arena di Verona
Tour the medieval castelvecchio, stroll along the ponte scaligero, climb the lamberti tower, see the iconic balcony of romeo and juliet, visit the impressive basilica of santa anastasia, cross ponte pietra.
- Enjoy the best views of Verona
Breakfast at Pasticceria Camesco
08:30 AM – 09:30 AM If you look for the best coffee and croissants in Verona, there is one place to go – Pasticceria Camesco .
Although it’s located a 10min walk from the historic centre, this pasticceria is totally worth the detour. The pistachio croissants were the best I’ve had in my life!
If you’re about to explore Verona on a day trip, you won’t find a better convenient place for breakfast. The pasticceria is right between the Verona Porta Nuova train station and the historic centre!
![tour en verona Pasticceria Camesco](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-pasticceria-camesco.jpg?resize=1100%2C698)
Yet, if you prefer something closer to the historic sights, Caffe Borsari is the place to go.
09:30 AM – 10:00 AM Located on Piazza Bra, Arena di Verona is one of the city’s key sights. Originally made of white and pink limestone, the famous amphitheatre dates back to the 1st century BC. In fact, it’s one of the best-preserved ancient Roman structures in the world.
You can visit the Arena and get a sense of how huge the amphitheatre is. To find out more about its centuries-old history, book this excellent guided tour with a knowledgeable guide .
In ancient times, Roman spectacles and gladiator games were attended here by up to 30,000 visitors. Nowadays, the amphitheatre is used for concerts, ballets and opera performances.
![tour en verona Arena di Verona](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/arena-di-verona.jpg?resize=1100%2C521)
10:10 AM – 11:45 AM Castelvecchio (means Old Castle in Italian) stands on the south bank of the Adige River. It’s built in the 14th century by the Scaliger dynasty, which ruled the city in the Middle Ages.
Once used as an important military fortress, today the castle houses a museum. The exhibitions feature weapons from the Middle Ages, as well as art pieces from the Renaissance period.
![tour en verona Castelvecchio](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-castelvecchio-museum.jpg?resize=1100%2C583)
Don’t miss the views from the castle’s ramparts towards the Ponte Scaligero, one of the city’s most beautiful bridges.
11:45 AM – 12:00 PM After a visit to the castle, walk across the adjacent Ponte Scaligero (aka Castelvecchio Bridge). It’s one of the most impressive bridges in Verona. Built in the 14th century, its main purpose was to facilitate the escape from the fortified castle.
![tour en verona Ponte Scaligero](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-ponte-scaligero.jpg?resize=1100%2C671)
Lunch at La Bottega della Gina
12:00 PM – 02:00 PM For the best pasta in Verona, go to La Bottega della Gina . It’s a small authentic pasta shop with a few seats available. All the pasta is freshly prepared and cooked on premise.
We ordered the tagliatelle with ragout and a sample of all the tortellini flavours. Both extremely delicious!
![tour en verona La Bottega della Gina](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-bottega-della-gina.jpg?resize=1100%2C693)
La Bottega della Gina is the perfect spot for a quick casual lunch. Yet, if you prefer to sit and rest before continuing with this Verona itinerary, go to La Vecia Mescola . It’s an excellent restaurant with a beautiful atmosphere and lovely food.
02:00 PM – 02:40 PM Lamberti Tower (Torre dei Lamberti) is the largest tower in Verona. Originally built in 1172 by the Lamberti family, the tower stood at 37 metres in height. However, in the following centuries, after the construction was integrated into the Palazzo del Consiglio, its height was increased to 84 metres.
To climb to the top of the tower you have to take the staircase (368 steps) or the lift. If you don’t have a Verona Card, buy a skip-the-line ticket for the tower , as lines can be long at certain times.
Note that the Verona Card holders have to pay €1 extra to use the lift. From the top, you can enjoy superb panoramic views over the city’s red rooftops and River Adige’s curves.
![tour en verona Lamberti Tower](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-lamberti-tower.jpg?resize=1100%2C1593)
02:40 PM – 03:20 PM Verona is well known for its connections to Romeo and Juliet. Thus, you can’t visit the city, without seeing the iconic Juliet’s House (Casa di Giulietta).
You’ll find Juliet’s House tucked away in a little alley with walls covered in love notes. This 13th-century house features a little courtyard with a statue of Juliet. Yet, the most popular spot in the house is the famous balcony where Romeo promised his eternal love to Juliet.
![tour en verona Juliet's statue](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-juliet-statue.jpg?resize=1100%2C1528)
It’s free to enter the courtyard, where you can touch Juliet’s bronze chest for luck and love. However, to visit the house and stand in the iconic balcony you have to pay €6. The entrance is free with Verona Card.
You can even send a letter (or email) to Juliet! And you’ll get an answer! The letters are actually handled by a group of volunteers from the Club di Giulietta in Verona.
![tour en verona Juliet's House mailbox](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-juliet-house-mailbox.jpg?resize=1100%2C1364)
Before visiting, be aware that the house has no actual connection to the fictional characters of Romeo and Juliet. In fact, the balcony was only added in the 20th century. Still, it’s worth it to take a quick look and see how noble families lived in Verona centuries ago.
L’Arte del Gelato
And while in the area, stop for some gelato at L’Arte del Gelato . It’s one of the best in Verona!
![tour en verona L'Arte del Gelato](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-arte-del-gelato-472x600.jpg?resize=472%2C600)
03:40 PM – 04:10 PM Even if you have only one day in Verona, the Basilica of Santa Anastasia is not to be missed. It was built in the period 1280-1400 by the friars of the Dominican order.
Basilica of Santa Anastasia is the largest church in the city (and the most beautiful one). Don’t let its plain exterior turn you away. The interior is truly remarkable, featuring frescoed ceilings and beautiful chapels.
There is an entrance fee of €3 to visit the church (you get a free audio guide as well).
![tour en verona Basilica of Santa Anastasia](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-basilica-santa-anastasia.jpg?resize=1100%2C825)
04:20 PM – 04:30 PM To get to the last sight of this Verona itinerary, you’ll have to cross the Adige River. And the best spot to do is one of the city’s iconic bridges, Ponte Pietra. Dating back to the 1st century BC, this is the oldest bridge in Verona.
The best views of Verona
04:40 PM – 05:30 PM Piazzale Castel San Pietro offers the best panoramic views of the city and Adige River. So, even if you have only 1 day in Verona, make the effort to visit the place. It will be the highlight of your trip!
The easiest way to get to the viewing point is by taking the Funicolare di Castel San Pietro. In less than a 2min ride, you’ll reach the top of the hill. Of course, if you prefer walking, there are some steep steps you can take to the top.
Whatever you choose, the panoramic views will be worth it! Besides the spectacular views, you’ll find a 14th-century palace (sadly it’s not open to visitors).
![tour en verona Piazzale Castel San Pietro view](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-view-castel-san-pietro.jpg?resize=1100%2C643)
Dinner at Il Punto Rosa
Finish this Verona itinerary with dinner at Il Punto Rosa . It’s a lovely little restaurant where you can try some local food.
![tour en verona Il Punto Rosa](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-il-punto-rosa.jpg?resize=1100%2C825)
Ready for a second gelato? Well, then head to Gelateria La Romana Verona . It’s a 10min walk from the historic centre, but it’s worth it the little detour. You’ll have one of the best gelato in Italy!
![tour en verona Gelateria La Romana Verona](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/gelateria-romana-verona-600x580.jpg?resize=600%2C580)
More ideas for your one day in Verona
Take a food tour.
There is no better way to discover Verona than taking a food tour with wine tasting . You’ll taste the local tortellini fresh pasta, try an Italian espresso and the famous Amarone wine.
Marvel at the Scaliger Tombs
Scaliger Tombs (Arche Scaligere) is a group of Gothic funeral monuments erected by the Scaliger family. For €1 you can enter inside the iron gates and see the tombs at close hand. They are just a step away from the Piazza dei Signori, so don’t miss to take a look.
![tour en verona Scaliger Tombs](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-scaliger-tombs-1024x1013.jpg?resize=1024%2C1013)
Visit the Renaissance garden of Giusti Palace
The gardens of Giusti Palace (Palazzo Giusti) is considered one of the best Renaissance gardens in Europe. The earliest gardens were set up in the late 1400s. In the 16th century, they were improved to serve as a backdrop of the Giusti Palace. The garden is laid out on several levels, featuring 600-year-old cypress trees and a maze.
Visit Verona’s famous churches
Besides the Basilica of Santa Anastasia, the city is home to several more gorgeous churches. Thus, if you have enough time I urge you to discover the religious sights below.
- Verona Cathedral – 12th-century Romanesque cathedral with a striped façade and beautiful frescoes and paintings by Titian
- Basilica of San Zeno – features an impressive Romanesque design with detailed bronze doors, decorated with vivid biblical scenes
- Church of San Fermo Maggiore – a fusion of Romanesque and Gothic styles with a magnificent carved wood ceiling
All three churches are free with Verona Card. Another option is to buy this combined ticket . It gives you a free entrance to Verona Cathedral, the Basilica of San Zeno, the Church of San Fermo Maggiore and the Basilica of Santa Anastasia.
How to save money on your Verona itinerary
The best way to discover the city and save money is to use the Verona Card . The pass includes:
- free entry to all major tourist sites
- skip the line entry at the Arena
- reduced entry to several museums
- free unlimited travel on the ATV city bus lines
By using the pass on this Verona day trip itinerary you’ll save €13 .
- Arena di Verona – €10
- Castelvecchio Museum – €6
- Lamberti Tower – €8
- Juliet’s House – €6
- Basilica di Santa Anastasia – €3
Total without the card – €33 If you use the card – €20 Total savings – €13
And I didn’t even include the free use of public transport (one ticket costs €1.3). So, even if you’re exploring Verona on a day trip, you can save at least €13. You can find more in my detailed review why the Verona Card is worth it .
![tour en verona Castelvecchio](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-castelvecchio.jpg?resize=1100%2C700)
Getting around in Verona
Find here a map with all the key sights from this Verona day trip itinerary.
Verona is easily accessible by foot. Yet, if walking is not your thing, you can always take the hop-on-hop-off bus . The bus takes you from the central train station to the historic centre. It’s very useful for Piazzale Castel San Pietro, as the scenic viewpoint is on the top of the hill.
How to get to Verona
Verona Porta Nuova is the city’s central train station. It’s an easy 15min walk away from the historic centre. Another option is to take public transport (there is a large bus station outside the train station) or the hop-on-hop-off bus.
If you’re planning to travel by train through Italy, book tickets in advance (they are cheaper if you buy earlier). Check timetables and book train tickets online at Trenitalia official website .
Be careful not to get off at Verona Porta Vescovo station, which is not within a walking distance of the tourist sights. The station you need is Verona Porta Nuova.
A big part of Verona’s historic centre is a limited traffic zone (ZTL). So, if you’re arriving by car, make sure your hotel has parking on-site. Another option is to use any of the numerous car parks .
The city’s main airport is known under two names – Villafranca Airport (VRN) and Valerio Catullo Airport. It’s just 10km away from the city and is connected to the train station via a shuttle. The shuttle Aerobus runs every 20min and it takes 15min to reach Porta Nuova station.
![tour en verona Adige River](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-adige-river-bridge.jpg?resize=1100%2C570)
Best day trips from Verona
If you decide to spend a little more time in Verona, don’t miss to take a day trip and explore the region. See below the two most popular destinations for a day trip.
Sirmione and Lake Garda
If you have time for only one day trip, do this. Lake Garda is not only the largest lake in all of Italy, but the scenery is breathtaking!
Sirmione lies on the shores of the lake. It’s a picturesque little town that boasts a 12th-century water-surrounded fortress.
How to get to Sirmione and Lake Garda
- the easiest way is to take this Sirmione and Lake Garda guided tour . It includes not only a guided tour of the walled town of Sirmione but also a boat tour of the lake.
- another option is to take the bus line LN026 from Verona Porta Nuova bus station to Sirmione (1-hour journey)
Amarone Wine Trail Tour
If you’re a wine lover, this Amarone Wine Trail Tour is just for you! You’ll discover the wine valley of Valpolicella and learn the secrets of the Amarone winemaking. The tour also includes two wine tasting at authentic wineries!
![tour en verona Adige River](https://i0.wp.com/myvacationitineraries.com/bear/../media/2020/08/verona-adige-river.jpg?resize=1100%2C756)
How many days in Verona
Is one day in verona enough.
1 day is more than enough to discover the city and visit Arena di Verona, Castelvecchio Museum, Lamberti Tower and Juliet’s House. In fact, Verona is an easy and popular day trip from Venice and Milan.
How to see Verona in half a day
It’s possible to see the city in only half a day if you’re short on time. You can still follow my Verona itinerary, but you’ll have to skip the visit of some key sights.
For example, skip the visit of the Basilica di Santa Anastasia and see only outside the Arena and Juliet’s House. You’ll lose precious time at Juliet’s House, plus you can see the famous balcony from the courtyard. For city views choose between Lamberti Tower and Piazzale Castel San Pietro.
Best time to visit Verona
The best time to visit Verona is late spring (May and June) and early autumn (September and October). The high season is the summer months of July and August. Avoid these months if possible, because the crowds are big and the weather is too hot.
The Opera Festival takes place every year in June, July and August. During this time you can attend a classical music concert at the Arena! It’s a unique experience, so don’t miss it if you’re in the city at that time.
Every winter from the middle of November till Christmas, you can enjoy the magical Christmas markets .
Venice is not the only city famous for its carnival in the Veneto region. The Verona Carnival takes place on the last Friday before Lent and it’s one of the oldest in Italy!

About the author
I am looking to visit verona and would like to know where the best place for a spa and pool for 2 adults and child also how much for the for tour tickets for a 7 year old
Hi Kate, For Spa I’d recommend you to stay in Hotel Milano . However, if the pool is a priority for you, you’ll need to look for a place outside Verona.
Hello Miss Milena,
I was looking at a 1 day trip in Verona and found your blog. It’s so detailed and super helpful. I will definitely follow them all and I hope to be able to visit your beautiful country too. I am traveling Europe with my husband. Also, I just want to say that the Bigoi Verona is permanently closed. Have a nice day! 🙂
Hi Paula, Thank you for your comment. I updated the itinerary. Have a great trip to Verona! 🙂
Hi Miss Milena,
I am looking to visit Verona for 1 day with my daughter. Please recommend a few places we could see? We have about 5 hours. Many Thanks Esther
This itinerary could be easily done in less than a day (if you’re visiting Verona on a day trip), so 5 hours are almost enough to see everything. 🙂 Still, it depends on how much time you’ll spend at each attraction. You can skip the part “More ideas for your one day in Verona” and choose a few must-see attractions only from the itinerary according to your and your daughter’s interests.
I’ll be happy to help if you have any specific questions, or if you at least give me more info on your interests, what you’d prefer to see and how old is your daughter.
Thank you for the easy and lovely recommendations 🙌
Thank you for your comment, Irem! 🙂

This woman is amazing! Went on a day trip to Verona with school and we got an amazing tour. She tells all the stories of Verona with a lot of emotions and that made the tour really fun!
The tour was really amazing as we had the best guide of the city ! She is super interesting and really put a lot of heart in her stories ! It was truely awesome to be able to learn so much on Verona. Thank you again!
Really a great English-speaking tour guide with a lot of knowledge of the city of Verona, specifically Romeo & Juliet, the arena, and more!
Professor Mauro Albrigi was full of information, interesting anecdotes, never tired of my husband's questions, & is a delightful individual! No moonlight but a lovely evening stroll.
"This tour was entertaining. Our guide, Maria, was knowledgable and good fun. We opted to take an evening tour as a change from the heat (and crowds) during the day. That proved to be a good decision."
"We really enjoyed our private tour of Verona! Our guide was obviously well versed in the architecture of Verona and his enthusiasm was contagious. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you're traveling with a group. Breakaway from them for a little while and get a personalized tour of a charming city."
"We arrived in Verona and joined this tour on our first evening and we are so glad we did. We had the most amazing guide who was so passionate about Verona. It was so lovely to walk around the town and take in all the interesting facts and stories - we couldn’t believe how quickly the time went. This experience is an absolute must if you are visiting the city!"
"The tour was amazing! Our guide was Maria Girolami. She showed us around Verona, explaining with love and details about Verona's older buildings, history. Our highlight was Romeo ans Juliets love history! It was a friendly atmosphere and she was kind and talented! Highly recommended!"
"Dennis was an amazing and very kind guide, teaching us many very interesting stories and facts about the city and the history of the city. Knowing that this was not our first time or first tour in Verona, he still was able to show us places we had not been to before or knew existed. Overall, I really enjoyed the tour and highly recommend taking a tour with Dennis!"

31 Best Things to do in Verona, Italy
1. verona arena (arena di verona).
![tour en verona Verona Arena](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/verona-arena.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The Verona Arena is an amazing example of the Roman influence that has been left on the city. This arena was built in the time of the emperor Tiberius in 30 AD. Remarkably, the arena survived the centuries so well that it is still used for performances to this day.
Built with pink and white limestone and originally made to hold up to 30,000 people, this is considered to be one of the most well preserved Roman arenas in the world.
If you go for a visit during the day, you can walk around the seating areas and take in the vastness of the space where gladiators once fought.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/verona-arena-interior.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
We recommend walking all the way to the top floor of the Verona Arena for spectacular views overlooking the Piazza Bra and of this ancient structure.
Summer opera performances: During the summer, from June to September, the Verona Arena hosts the annual Verona Opera Festival. Every week, they put on different performances for visitors to choose from. You can get information on the 2024 schedule and the performance schedule on the arena website .
There are a number of ticket levels, and it’s important to note that tickets do sell out. If you are planning on visiting Verona during the summer, we highly recommend booking well in advance.
Tip: Start your day by visiting the Verona arena in order to avoid the lines, especially during the high season (summer). You can sign up for this guided tour with skip the line access, or alternatively, we recommended getting the Verona Card, which includes priority access to the arena.
Hours : Tuesday – Sunday from 9:00am – 7:00pm Verona Arena ticket price : €10 Included in the Verona Card? Yes
2. Piazza Bra
![tour en verona Piazza Bra in Verona, Italy](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/piazza-bra-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
Piazza Bra, just outside of the Verona Arena, is the largest square in Verona and is one of the largest across Italy too. As such, this is the center of life in Verona and is consistently abuzz with people and events.
Around the edges of the square you can find loads of cafes and restaurants. Setting up at one for a casual drink is a great way to enjoy a bit of la dolce vita.
As well as the arena, you’ll also find other important buildings here such as the Verona city hall and the Gran Guardia Palace.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/piazza-bra-buildings.jpg?resize=1200%2C1800&ssl=1)
At the center of the Piazza Bra, you’ll find the Giardini Vittorio Emanuele II. Shaded with trees and covered in grass, this is a wonderful place to relax for a bit, especially during the hotter months. We spent many afternoons sitting by the fountain and people watching.
3. Castelvecchio Museum
![tour en verona Castelvecchio Museum in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/castelvecchio-museum.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The Castelvecchio Museum is housed in the imposing and unmissable 14th century medieval castle of the same name. The castle was built by the then incredibly powerful Veronese della Scala family.
The space was brought back to life when it was renovated in the mid 20th century by Carlo Scarpa. Now, the castle houses hundreds of pieces across many exhibits.
You can see sculptures, pictures, jewelry, and ancient artifacts from across Veronese history. These pieces span the ages with works from the Medieval, Renaissance, and Modern art periods.
In addition to the museum, the castle itself is an interesting attraction. Many of its original features remain and you can explore the grounds, the ramparts, and make your way across the castle’s bridge.
Make sure to have enough time to wander along the castle walls. There is a nice view of the Adige river and the Castelvecchio bridge from here.
Hours : Tuesday – Sunday: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm | More info on the official website Ticket price : € 6.60 online | €6 at the museum Included in the Verona Card? Yes
4. Castelvecchio Bridge
![tour en verona Castelvecchio Bridge in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/bridge-castelvecchio.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The Castelvecchio Bridge (also known as the Scaliger Bridge) is a pedestrian bridge that is connected to the castle and is free to visit. Walking across the bridge provides nice views along the Adige river in both directions.
The bridge was originally built in the Middle Ages, around the mid 14th century, and stood for hundreds of years before being destroyed partially in the 19th century and then fully in the 20th century during World War II.
The bridge that stands today is a reconstruction and an exact replica of the original.
5. Piazza delle Erbe
![tour en verona Piazza delle Erbe in Verona, ITaly](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/piazza-delle-erbe-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The Piazza delle Erbe is at the heart of Verona, Italy. This square has been important to the city of Verona since the first century BC when it was used as a Roman public forum.
Now, the Piazza delle Erbe — translated in English to Herb Square, is a lively market square. You can come here any day of the week to experience the permanent outdoor market.
Unfortunately, these days, the local market is mainly a tourist attraction where vendors sell souvenirs instead of a typical Italian market that sells fresh produce and goods.
![tour en verona Main square in verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/piazza-delle-erbe-view.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The square is lined with gorgeous historic buildings like the Mazzanti Houses which are adorned with stunning, colorful frescoes. In the middle of the square is a sculpture of Madonna which was constructed during Roman times.
If you need a bit of a refresher during your busy day, then sit down at one of the many restaurants at the Piazza delle Erbe and grab an Aperol Spritz.
We wouldn’t recommend eating here, as there are much better restaurants for food that we’ve listed out in our Verona food guide.
6. Torre dei Lamberti
![tour en verona Bologna to Verona Day Trip](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/verona-italy-day-trip.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
Climbing the Torre dei Lamberti is one of our favorite things to do in Verona as it provides unmissable views across the city. It was constructed in the Romanesque style in the 12th century by the Lamberti family.
The tower stands at 84 meters (275 feet) tall making it the tallest building in the city. You can make your way to the top either by stairs (there are 368) or by elevator.
The elevator is see-through so you can admire the architecture of the interior of the building all the way up.
Do note though that if you take the elevator there are still a few steps when you get out to reach the true top of the tower.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/view-lamberti-tower.jpg?resize=1200%2C1800&ssl=1)
Tip: We highly suggest reserving your time slot in advance. To book your time slot, you need to send an email to the ticket office, and they will get back to you with your confirmed reservation. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to reserve online on your own.
Hours : Monday – Friday from 10:00am – 6:00pm & Saturday – Sunday from 11:00am – 7:00pm Ticket price : €6 | Reservations are highly recommended by emailing in advance on the official website Included in the Verona Card? Yes — but advanced booking is highly recommended
7. Piazza dei Signori
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/piazza-dei-signori-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
This square was developed in the middle ages. Back then it was surrounded by buildings of great importance — mansions of the powerful Veronese families, as well as buildings of political importance.
Today, you can still see those grand buildings though now they are used only as landmarks and attractions. Around the edges of the square you’ll find the Palazzo della Raggione — a former palace built in the 1100s, and the Loggia del Capitanato — one of many designated UNESCO world heritage sites around the city.
In the middle of the square is a statue of Dante — giving the space its alternate name: Piazza Dante. It is said that when Dante was given safe haven here in Verona it was in this square that he found safety and inspiration for his further works.
8. Scaliger tombs
![tour en verona Tombs in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/tombs-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
In an effort to make sure they would not be forgotten, the powerful Scaliger family built themselves a burial place. The Scaliger family ruled Verona throughout the 13th and 14th centuries.
This complex is made of five gothic funerary monuments that are lavishly decorated with a sarcophagus, extensive statues, and other details showing off — to this day — the power the family held.
The tombs take up an entire city block and are protected by an ornately decorated wrought iron fence.
Hours : Tuesday – Sunday: 7:30 am – 12:30 pm & 1:30 pm to 5:00 pm (only open during the summer months) Ticket price : Free with ticket to other Verona museums & monuments Included in the Verona Card? Yes
9. Juliet’s House (Casa di Giulietta)
![tour en verona Juliet's Balcony in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/juliets-balcony.jpg?resize=702%2C467&ssl=1)
While there was never a real Juliet, it is believed that Shakespeare may have found inspiration for his timeless love story Romeo & Juliet from this house in the fair city of Verona, and the family who once lived here.
This is the home where the Dal Cappello family (Capuleti family) lived in the medieval ages. It is a tower house built in the 13th century, and today you can visit it in pursuit of the love story.
The courtyard in front is free to visit and from there you can look up at the famous balcony. While it may not matter in this world of fantasy, that balcony was only added in the last century — so neither Juliet nor Shakespeare ever would have seen it.
In the courtyard you can also find a bronze statue of Juliet. It is believed that if you rub her right breast you will gain luck in love, which is why it’s much shinier than the other.
![tour en verona Inside of Juliet's house in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/juliet-house-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
Entering the house you’ll be able to see artifacts from the building and the family who once lived there, along with items from the much more recent screen adaptation of the story.
There is also a spot on the grounds where people write and leave behind their love letters.
Our personal opinion: While it is neat to see “Juliet’s home”, this is definitely a super touristy destination. Safe to say – we were a bit disappointed with the inside of the house. If you’re in a hurry, just visit the courtyard. The interior of the house is okay and not really worth visiting.
Hours : Tuesday – Sunday: 9:00 am – 7:00 pm Ticket price : €6 Included in the Verona Card? Yes — but advanced booking of a time for your visit is mandatory. Book online at the official website.
10. Basilica di Santa Anastasia
![tour en verona Basilica di Santa Anastasia](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/church-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
This beautiful Gothic church was constructed in the 13th century. The church is the largest in Verona and is considered to be one of the most important places of Catholic worship in the city. Interestingly, despite its importance to the city, the facade of the church has remained unfinished.
That importance is, though, reflected inside with the grandeur of the decor. Make sure to look up as you enter and admire the beautiful frescoes adorning the ceiling as well as the many statues all throughout the basilica.
One particular statute to look out for is the hunchback who is eternally crouched below the holy water — representative of the people’s support of the church.
Hours : Monday – Friday: 10.00 am – 5.00 pm & Saturday: 9:30 am – 6:00 pm & Sunday: 1:00 PM – 5:30 PM Ticket price : €4 Included in the Verona Card? Yes
11. San Fermo Maggiore
![tour en verona San Fermo Maggiore](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/maggiore-basilica.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The most interesting thing about San Fermo Maggiore is that it is actually two churches in one. When the Francsicans decided to build here in the 13th century, they built it over an already existing church but left that one totally untouched. So now, you can visit both the upper and the lower churches.
The upper church is built in the French Gothic style, while the lower church is in the Romanesque style. In the Gothic church, make sure to look to the ceiling which has 416 busts of saints and incredible wooden details.
Hours : Monday – Friday: 10:00 am – 5:00 pm & Saturday: 9:30 am – 5:30 pm & Sunday: 1:00 pm – 5:30 pm Ticket price : €4 Included in the Verona Card? Yes
12. Basilica di San Zeno
![tour en verona San Zeno Basilica Verona, Italy](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/san-zeno-basilica.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The San Zeno Basilica was originally built in the 5th century, but the structure that we see today mainly evolved between the 10th and 14th centuries in the Romanesque style. The exterior is warmly colored and the interior is grand and opulent.
The interior of the basilica is one of our favorites in all of Italy. Make sure to look up at the ceiling to admire the delicate wooden paneling and unique details.
The other major draw is the massive crypt of the church where the remains of Saint Zeno are housed. That, though, is not what visitors find most interesting, it is instead the fact that the crypt is where the marriage of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet took place. And of course, you can visit the space.
While it is a bit of a walk to get here, if you have the time, we highly recommend visiting this basilica. It truly is a hidden gem in Verona.
Hours : Monday – Friday: 10:00 am – 5:00 pm & Saturday: 9:30 am – 6:00 pm & Sunday: 1:00 pm – 5:30 pm Ticket price : €4 Include in the Verona Card : Yes
13. The Verona Cathedral Complex (Cathedral of Santa Maria Matricolare)
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/verona-cathedral-complex.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
As well as the cathedral itself, the complex houses the Chiesa Rettoria di Sant’Elena and Battistero di San Giovanni in Fonte — both Catholic churches, the Canons’ Cloister, the Capitular Library of Verona, and more.
In Roman days there were more buildings such as private villas and baths here. You can still see the remains of some of those structures.
The cathedral was first built in the 4th century but it underwent many expansions to accommodate the growing community in Verona as well as a large reconstruction after a 12th century earthquake.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/verona-cathedral-complex-1.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
The cathedral is built largely in the Romanesque architectural style — though with centuries of building it has many influences. The interior is nothing short of stunning with pink columns throughout the nave.
Of course, look to the altar for amazing artworks as well as up to the ceiling which is adorned with incredible frescoes.
Hours : Monday – Friday: 11:00 am – 5:00 pm & Saturday: 11:00 am – 3:30 pm & Sunday: 1:30 pm – 5:30 pm Ticket price: €4 Included in the Verona Card? Yes
14. Civic Museum of Natural History
The Civic Museum of Natural History in Verona presents almost five centuries of amazing scientific artifacts and discoveries from across the Palaeolithic, Neolithic and Iron Ages.
Amazingly, there are almost three million different pieces to see in this museum. So, needless to say, you could spend a lot of time exploring and learning from it all.
Check out taxidermy bears, insect fossils, and explore the variety of birds on display.
Beyond the exhibits themselves, the museum is housed in Palazzo Pompei, a Renaissance palace built in the 1600s.
Hours : Tuesday – Wednesday: 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm & Thursday – Sunday: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm Ticket price: €4.50 Included in the Verona Card? Yes
15. Ponte Pietra
![tour en verona Ponte Pietra and Adige River verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/ponte-pietra.jpg?resize=1200%2C1800&ssl=1)
Crossing over the Adige River on the Ponte Pietra gives you amazing views of Verona including of the Cathedral and of the Roman Theater.
This Roman arch bridge is the oldest bridge in Verona and was first built by the Romans when they arrived to the city in 100 BC.
While parts of the original bridge still stand, you can notice a distinct difference in the building materials which were used later to repair damage caused by floods and war.
16. Piazzale Castel San Pietro
![tour en verona One day in Verona, Italy](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/verona-italy-view.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
For the best panoramic views of the beautiful city of Verona, make your way to the Piazzale Castel San Pietro. Sitting atop the hill on the far side of the Adige River, the area surrounding the Castel San Pietro offers amazing views of the Veronese rooftops (views which include the Torre dei Lamberti).
The castle at the top is actually an Austrian fortress which was built in the 19th century. It was, though, built with the intention to blend in with the rest of the architecture of the city, thus giving it the name of castle.
![tour en verona Stairs to Piazzale Castel San Pietro Verona, Italy](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/stairs-piazzale.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
You can’t enter the fortress, but you can visit its exterior and stop at the restaurant at the top. This is also an amazing place to stop for sunset views over Verona.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/funicular-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
To reach the top you can walk up the stairs — there are about 250, or you can take a funicular up — be mindful, though, of the time for the funicular’s last trip, especially if you are going up for sunset.
Funicular hours: Summer (April – October) 10:00 am – 9:00 pm & Winter (November – March) 10:00 am – 5:00 pm Funicular ticket price : €3 roundtrip Included in the Verona Card? No
17. Roman Theater (Teatro romano)
The ancient Roman Theater in Verona was built in the 1st century BC and remarkably, is still in use as a theater to this day. This is thanks to excavations in the 19th century which recovered the remains that had been buried beneath later settlements.
While there is some of the seating from the original theater, much of the space has needed to be reconstructed, and many modern day seats have been added.
In addition to the theater, you can also visit the museum here which is full of Veronese and Roman history and artifacts including mosaics, sculptures, and more.
Hours : Tuesday – Wednesday from 2:00pm – 6:00pm & Thursday – Sunday 10:00am – 6:00pm Ticket price : €6 | More info on the official website Included in the Verona Card? Yes
18. Archeological Museum
A visit to the Archeological Museum is a part of your visit to the Roman Theater in Verona. The museum is housed above the theater in a monastery, and your ticket will allow you to see both spaces and all of the amazing architecture and artifacts within. You can explore what is left of the monastery.
In the museum you’ll see statues, sculptures, artifacts, and more from Verona’s past. You can also visit the cloisters of the monastery and see all of its gorgeous frescoes. Outside are the beautifully maintained gardens which you are free to explore.
If you’re interested in learning more about Roman times, especially in Verona, this is a stop not to be missed.
19. Wander around the streets
![tour en verona Colorful buildings in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/buildings-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
There are definitely a lot of amazing things to do in Verona, but sometimes the best thing to do is to simply put away the guidebooks and all the information you have about Verona, Italy and just go get lost.
Verona is not a large city, and it is very pedestrian friendly, get out there and discover all of it. Centro storico is the name of the historic part of the city, and this is the ideal place to begin your wanderings.
Turn down those intriguing alleyways or stop in at a cafe or a bar if it takes your fancy. Make sure to go down Via Mazzini, the main shopping street of the city (also pedestrianized).
20. GAM Achille Forti Modern Art Gallery
![tour en verona Modern art gallery verona, italy](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/modern-art-gallery-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
This museum is dedicated to modern Italian art, housing 1,600 pieces in its collection spanning from the early 19th century to present day including realism, surrealism, expressionism, and more.
You can find works by renowned Veronese artists such as Renato Birolli as well as plenty of others from across the rest of Italy such as Filippo de Pisis or Arturo Tosi.
This gallery is a great way to spend some time in Verona, it lays out the history of the city beautifully through art.
We have visited many small art galleries in Italy and while some are okay, this one surprised us. We ended up spending a couple of hours here taking in all of the unique artworks.
Hours : Tuesday – Wednesday: 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm & Thursday – Sunday: 10:00 am – 6:00 pm Ticket price : €4 in person | €4.40 online – No need to book in advance Included in the Verona Card? Yes
21. Try the local cuisine
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/verona-cuisine.jpg?resize=1200%2C1600&ssl=1)
With a city that tells as much of a story as Verona does, a city that is over 2,000 years old, of course part of that story is the food.
There is so much of it to try on your visit to Verona, but start with these highlights.
- Pandoro: the famous Christmas cake from Verona was first documented in the 18th century when it was enjoyed by Venetian aristocracy. Today, you only need to imagine that you are a part of the aristocracy to enjoy this vanilla sweet bread.
- Risotto all’Amarone: this dish is a risotto in a red wine sauce and it’s easily found at restaurants around the city. The color may be a little bit off putting — but the black appearance comes from the intense flavor of the local dry, red wine that this dish is made with.
- Sopressa salami: this is a special type of salami which can only come only from the region. The salami is made from pork, lard, and an array of simple spices. It is soft and rich and often served on its own or with bread. Interestingly, this is a typical morning snack in Verona.
- Pastissada de caval: while this horse meat stew may not be everyone’s cup of tea, it has a long history originating in the 5th century when the flesh of horse’s killed in battle were collected and cooked. Now, the tradition continues (though the horses do not come from battlefields) and this dish is still popular. The meat is slowly stewed in wine along with an array of veggies. It may be possible to find this dish with beef instead of horse, but it won’t have the same rich flavor.
- Meat with pearà: Some say this dish of boiled meat in a sauce with breadcrumbs and pepper is one of the most Veronese things you can try. The meats used in this delicious dish often include beef, chicken, beef tongue, sausage, and cow trotters (feet).
- Tortellini : Though this delicious stuffed pasta is not in fact from Verona, but rather Bologna, it is very popular in the region. There is a special type of tortellini which originates nearby — Tortellini di Valeggio. This version of the pasta has extra thin dough giving it a very fine and delicate flavor.
22. Walk along the ancient walls of Verona
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/IMG_8138-2.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
Looking up at the Castel San Pietro you’re able to see a portion of the city walls already. There are in fact three sets of city walls in Verona which were each built by different cultures over the ages.
First came the Roman walls, then the walls of the Comune, and finally the Scaliger walls. The stretch of wall which you can still find standing behind the castle today is from the Scaliger family.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/IMG_8142.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
Make your way to Forte San Felice behind the castle and walk along the ancient walls until you reach the historic center again. You can actually walk all the way to the Giusti Gardens this way.
We did this walk early one morning and came across locals either running or going for a morning stroll as well.
23. Giusti Gardens
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/verona-giusti-gardens.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The Giusti Gardens are one of the most incredible hidden gems in Verona, Italy. We visited the gardens during the fall season, and even then, they were beautiful with all the fall foliage. I can only imagine what they look like during the spring and summer.
The Giusti Gardens are 16th century, Renaissance style gardens. Wander your way through the tall cyprus trees, fountains, hedges, mazes, and greenery. We spent a good couple of hours here taking it all in – it’s a nice escape from the busy city center.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/view-giusti-gardens.jpg?resize=1200%2C1800&ssl=1)
The gardens were originally built and owned by the Giusti family, which made their wealth from the wool-dyeing trade in Verona. During your visit, you can also explore Apartment 900 – part of the original family home.
Hours : Monday – Sunday: 10 am – 6 pm Ticket price: €11 Included in the Verona Card? Discounted price of €8
24. Take in the views from Santuario della Madonna di Lourdes
![tour en verona Panoramic View of Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/panoramic-view-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
For possibly the best views of Verona, the Santuario della Madonna di Lourdes is the place to visit. It is even higher than the Piazzale Castel San Pietro and it is also less visited.
You can walk up by road from the historic city center, it takes about 25 – 30 minutes and is a fairly trafficked walking route, but the views are also accessible by road.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/verona-views-from-sanctuary.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
While you don’t have to go past the parking lot for views of the city, there is also a church as well as gardens which are both very peaceful and worth visiting while you’re up there.
Hours : Church open Monday – Sunday 7:30 am – 12:00 pm & 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM Ticket price : Free
25. Arco dei Gavi & Porta Borsari
![tour en verona Roman gate in Verona, Italy](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/gate-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
Admire the city’s arches and gates – Arco dei Gavi & Porta Borsari. Thanks to the many influences, cultures, and powers in the city throughout history, Verona has unique architecture everywhere you turn. With three sets of walls there are a huge number of arches and gates to explore.
Arco dei Gavi was originally built as part of the Via Postumia, a Roman military road which ran across Northern Italy. Unfortunately, despite surviving several centuries, the original gate was destroyed during Napoleon’s reign and what is standing today is a reproduction of the original.
Another stunning gate is the Porta Borsari which has double arches on the ground level and above that, two levels of six arches each. The beautiful white limestone used makes the structure even more eye-catching.
26. Go rafting on the Adige River
![tour en verona River Adige in Verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/river-adige.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
The Adige river is vital to Verona — it gives the city its shape, both literally and figuratively. The river connected Verona throughout history, it provided protection and importance and routes in and out. Now, it is a beautiful aspect of Verona which you can enjoy on a rafting trip.
Adige Rafting Verona offers two hour rafting trips which bring you down the river, all the way through the city. This is a great way to get out in the sunshine (hopefully!), get a bit of physical exercise, and also learn more about the history and culture surrounding the river.
While much of the rafting trip is very laid back, there are a few spots where you’ll have the opportunity to navigate some soft white water. Life jackets are provided but you’re likely to get wet so a change of clothes is recommended! Kids as young as three years old are welcome on the tours.
Ticket price : Adults €25 & Kids under 12 €18 Where to buy tickets: Reserve online at the official site
27. Cimitero Monumentale
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/cimetero-monumentale.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
It may seem odd to recommend visiting a cemetary, but we really enjoy seeing historic cemetaries around Europe. The grounds of this 19th century cemetery are quite ornate and beautiful. The old cemetery is fully enclosed with long rows of columns in a neoclassical design.
At either end there are two pantheon structures, one of which is based on the famous Pantheon in Rome. Dissecting this space is a series of cyprus trees and hedges.
The tombstones here are arranged in order of importance and wealth, with those who held prestige in life, receiving cover from the elements, and those from poorer families being buried outside.
A few of the more notable Veronese buried here are the writer Emilio Salgari and the artist Umberto Boccioni.
Hours : Monday – Sunday from 8:00 am – 5:30 pm
28. Go on a history walking tour
![tour en verona Charming streets verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/street-verona.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
As you’ve probably gathered from reading through this list of best things to do in Verona, the city is steeped in history. Founded in the first century BC, Verona has seen Romans, Ostrogoths, Lombards, Carolingians, Scaligers, and Austrians, before finally becoming a part of present day Italy.

Italian food is always amazing, and Verona is no exception.
From meats and risottos to pastas and wines, there are a whole lot of local delicacies to try here.

![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/porta-leoni.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
Located in the historic city center, you’ll find an ancient Roman gate and ruins. Porta Leoni is a true hidden gem in Verona and is originally from the 1st century BC.
It used to stand at 13 meters (42.5 feet) high and was a main entrance into the Roman city.
![tour en verona](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/porta-leoni-road.jpg?resize=1200%2C900&ssl=1)
We happened upon these Roman ruins while wandering the city. It’s always fascinating to experience modern times and ancient history simultaneously.
31. Take a day trip to nearby city
![tour en verona gondola and buidling in venice](https://i0.wp.com/thetravelfolk.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/venice-buidlings.jpg?resize=1200%2C800&ssl=1)
Verona sits in a prime and central location in Northern Italy for day trips. Once you’ve finished up your list of activities in Verona, don’t pack up your bags just yet.
During our month in Verona, we spent a large amount of our time exploring the nearby towns on day trips. Check out our list of the 15 best day trips from Verona , or see a few of our top choices below.
- Lake Garda : The largest lake in Italy, Lake Garda is an idyllic setting which is nothing short of picture-perfect. There are several destinations around the lakeshore, one of the easiest to get to from Verona is Peschiera del Garda which can be reached on a quick 15-20 minute train ride.
- Venice : Venice is the magical city of canals and iconic gondola rides where you can enjoy gelato and shop for carnival masks — no matter the time of year. The train trip from Verona to Venice is one hour.
- Padua : Padua is a small city known for its beautiful churches — Scrovegni Chapel and the Basilica of St. Anthony. The train trip from Verona to Padua is about 45 minutes each way.
- Bologna : Bologna is worth visiting if only for a bowl of fresh pasta and bolognese sauce! But actually, there is plenty else to do. You can get there on the train from Verona in just under an hour.
- Madonna della Corona Sanctuary: The 17th century church seems to defy reality in its perch on a cliffside in the Alps. It’s not easy to access the Madonna della Corona Sanctuary by train so you’re best to drive — the trip takes about an hour.

Verona is truly one of the most enchanting medieval cities in Italy which makes planning a Verona itinerary one of the best things to do when visiting Northern Italy.
The city is the home of Romeo and Juliet, has incredible landmarks, and is the beginning of a wonderful off-the-radar trip in the Veneto region. Many skip Verona and head to Venice instead, but spending time in Romantic Verona is a wonderfully pleasant experience in itself.
Verona itself is quite small, making 2 to 3 days in Verona sufficient to then make your way to explore the surrounding areas and region.

![tour en verona Verona at dusk](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Verona-at-dusk-700x467.jpg)
Getting To & Around Verona
Getting to the city center is quite convenient whether you’re flying in or taking a train, making it a perfect short trip or weekend destination.
If you’re flying into Verona, you’ll most likely be arriving at the Valerio Catullo Airport. The Verona airport is located 10 km southwest of the city center and offers a few international routes yearly, frequent Italian routes as well as many international summer routes.
If you prefer to skip the hefty cost of a taxi into the city, take the Verona Airport bus ATV that will bring you directly to the Verona Porta Nuova train station in just under 20 minutes.
From here it’s about a 15-minute walk into the city center but there are also plenty of local bus options as well. Tickets for the shuttle are €7 and can be purchased either online , at the airport, or on the bus.

![tour en verona Piazza Bra in Verona](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Piazza-Bra-Verona.jpg)
2 to 3-Day Verona Itinerary
On this itinerary you’ll fully experience everything that the city (and maybe outside) has to offer. From feeling the fairy-tale ambience at the home of Romeo and Juliet to the gorgeous gardens and nature the city boasts, you’ll be glad that you gave this city a chance.
If you want to learn more about the city with a guide consider taking a tour such as this history tour , this food tour or this winery tour depending on your interests.
Day 1 – The City Center
While the city center of Verona isn’t incredibly big, it has a grand feeling to it. Just walking along the Adige river and seeing the mountains that surround you makes you feel like you’re in a different time.
Day 1 will take you through the main sights of the city center and offer a wonderful first day and stroll through the city of Verona.
Torre dei Lamberti
Start your day with an incredible panoramic view from atop the Torre dei Lamberti – or the Lamberti Tower in English. Located in Piazza delle Erbe in the city center, this medieval tower provides incredible views of the adjacent Piazza dei Signori, the Verona Cathedral, the Verona Arena and more.
Built in the 12th century, this is the tallest tower in Verona and it is truly a focal point of the city’s skyline.
There is a small entry fee to get to the top of the tower, however, there is also an elevator so you don’t need to climb hundreds of rickety steps and can conserve your energy for your further Verona exploration. You can pre-book tickets here or they are included with a Verona Card which includes access to several attractions in the city.
There is no denying that starting your day with this kind of view is one of the best things to do in Verona.
Before making your way to the next stop, make a pit stop in Piazza dei Signori to take in the Scaliger Tombs, an above-ground mausoleum for the Scaligeri family dating back to the 14th Century.
Juliet’s House “Casa di Giulietta”
Directly in the center of the city on Via Cappello, you’ll find the Casa di Giulietta. While the story of Romeo and Juliet as we know it, written by Shakespeare is fictional, the house that he took inspiration from isn’t, as well as the sentiments people bring to it today.
Juliet’s House and most famously, her balcony, are easily one of the main attractions to see when visiting Verona. Ironically, the balcony itself wasn’t added to the house until the 20th century, whereas the house dates back to the 13th century. Just below the balcony is a golden statue of Juliet herself, and the fable has it that if you rub the statue, love is on its way!
Inside the house, you’ll find a museum that offers abundant information on the Romeo and Juliet tale as well as the building. The house itself is also decorated in an accurate 16th-17th century style to reflect what it was like in the era of Romeo and Juliet.
It’s quite an inspiring and touching place to be, witnessing lovers and hopeless lovers visit the statue, leave their notes, and ask Juliet for her love advice.
While it’s free to enter the courtyard and see the balcony, there is a fee to enter the museum. Keep in mind to arrive early and wait in queues as this is an extremely popular attraction with very little space.
![tour en verona Juliet's House](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Juliets-House-Verona.jpg)
Arena di Verona
It isn’t a trip to another Italian city without some sort of arena, is it? Located in the main square of central Verona, Piazza Bra, you’ll find the third-largest Roman amphitheater, with a maximum hold of 25,000 people.
Built in 30 CE and made of 44 levels, the Verona Arena truly encompasses the mass level that ancient Rome lived and built society. Just like any other ancient Roman arena, the Verona Arena was mainly used for gladiator games, and visiting the arena itself offers an unreal experience picturing the way things once were.
The arena itself is quite impressive just to look at from the outside but is also incredibly worth it to pay the admission fee to wander around the inside of it. With just 2 days in Verona or 3 days in Verona, the arena is somewhere that can’t be missed!
Tickets to enter the arena can be purchased on-site or alternatively, you can purchase a Verona Card that gives you priority access. It is also possible to organise a guided tour here.
Opening hours vary seasonally as well as the day of the week & whether or not a show is scheduled.

Verona Cathedral
After about a pleasant 15-minute walk from the Verona Arena and through the center, you’ll find yourself at the Verona Cathedral (or Duomo Santa Maria Matricolare). While this cathedral isn’t as immaculate as many of the others in Italy, it still holds many gems to be explored inside.
This Romanesque-style church was first built in 1187 and still proudly stands as an important part of the city of Verona. Inside you’ll find the pediment, as well as an interesting feature, the library. To this day, the library of the Verona Cathedral is known to be one of the oldest libraries still in rotation today, including various ancient texts!
Whether you’re someone keen on visiting churches or not, even just exploring for a quick walk around is a beautiful experience.
![tour en verona Verona Cathedral](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Verona-Cathedral.jpg)
Osteria il Bertoldo
A great way to wrap up your first day in Verona is at the delicious Osteria il Bertoldo. Located just a few minutes away from the Verona Cathedral is a deliciously classic Italian meal.
From a cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and delicious local foods, you’ll likely want to return for more!
Day 2 – Dig Deeper in Verona
Castel san pietro.
After grabbing your morning coffee and pastry (Verona is known to have exquisite cornettos and pastries), the perfect place to start your second day is with another breathtaking view of the city – at the Castel San Pietro.
Located across the Ponte Pietra, this Romanesque fortress is an excellent place to visit. If you’re up for a bit of a hike, it takes about 20 minutes from the base of the fortress to reach the top. Alternatively, there is a cable car that you can ride for a small fee.
The fortress itself may not be that interesting, however, the views are absolutely unbeatable as you will be able to get a full view of the old town of Verona and get more of a panorama that you were from the Lamberti Tower.
Palazzo Giusti and Giardino Giusti
The next stop on your second day is the Palazzo and Giardino Giusti – or the Giusti Palace and Gardens in English.
The palace and gardens are located on the east end of Verona and are a beautiful component of the city. The palace was built in the 16th century and the garden was planted in 1580, and while they’re known to Verona quite well, they’re a hidden gem on a tourist radar.
The garden is known to be one of the best examples of a classic Italian garden and is also known as one of the best Renaissance gardens in all of Europe. Once entering and exploring the large gardens, you’ll feel as if you’ve fallen into a medieval fairytale.
As for the palace, the majority of it is closed off but one section is kept open for visitors and is included in the gardens admission ticket. Tickets include an audio guide for your visit.
![tour en verona View from Giardino Giusti](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/View-from-Giardino-Giusti.jpg)
Ponte Scaligero (Castelvecchio Bridge)
Just about a 25-minute walk away from the Giardino and Palazzo Giusti, you’ll arrive at the Ponte Scagliero. The Ponte Scagliero is a fortified bridge linking the Citadella neighborhood to the Borgo Trento.
Built in the 1350s, and at the time, had the largest span of any bridge in the world (it’s quite small, so imagine that!) The bridge was destroyed in 1945 by retreating German troops but was luckily rebuilt in 1951.
Castelvecchio
Directly across from the Ponte Scagliero is the Castelvecchio, meaning old castle. The Castelvecchio is the most influential military building of the Scaliger dynasty and is also an important icon representing the history of Verona.
The castle was built in 1355 by the Della Scala family, the head of the Scaglier dynasty and the leading family of Verona in the middle ages. The castle was also damaged during World War 2 but was also renovated in the way we see it today.
In the Castelvecchio museum, you’ll find Romanesque and Gothic sculptures as well as old gothic paintings such as Pisanello with his Madonna of the quail, which are crucial to the history of Verona.
![tour en verona Castelvecchio bridge at sunset](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Castelvecchio-Bridge.jpg)
Basilica di San Zeno Maggiore
Not far at all from the Castelvecchio Bridge, you will find the imposing Basilica di San Zeno Maggiore. This gorgeous Romanesque-style church is well worth a visit if you’re spending 2 days exploring Verona.
The exterior of the church itself is gorgeous and beautiful to take in, however, it is known for its incredibly ornate frescoes within the interior of the church so definitely make sure you venture inside the building, as well.
For those visiting Verona because they’re Shakespeare fans, the basilica’s crypt is said to be the place the Bard set for Romeo and Juliet’s wedding.
![tour en verona Basilica di San Zeno Maggiore](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Basilica-di-San-Zeno-Maggiore.jpg)
Day 3 – Day Trip to Lake Garda
While Verona is a gorgeous city full of things to do, the Veneto region is rich in nature as well as culture. On day 3, we will head out to the famous Lake Garda for some fantastic views, and weather depending, maybe a swim.
Lake Garda (Lago di Garda) is Italy’s largest lake and should certainly be on your travel radar. From its picturesque villages to cobblestoned streets and wonderful food, Lake Garda is truly special.
To reach Lake Garda from Verona, you can easily take a train from Verona’s Porta Nuova station. Two of the towns on Lake Garda have train stations so you can take a direct train to either, these are; Desenzano del Garda and Peschiera del Garda.
They are just about 15 km away from each other as well as between 13-23 minutes away from the city center of Verona.
There are also many options for guided tours such as this full-day tour.
Desenzano del Garda
Desenzano del Garda is about a 25-minute train ride away from Verona with train tickets costing just 5 euros each way with trains just about every hour. The town has been a popular tourist location for thousands of years and offers lovely walks and views as well as food.
Take a walk along the harbor and maybe even visit the Bronze and Stone Age museum. A great way to wrap up your day is by enjoying a meal by the water at the wonderful La Taverna del Garda.
Peschiera del Garda
If you’re looking for a closer day trip, Peschiera del Garda is a great option. Just 13 minutes away by train, with tickets at just 3 euros and trains departing every 20 minutes, Peschiera del Garda is a delight.
Peschiera del Garda is a charming town with old winding alleys, beautiful flora, and colorful boats. The town has two parts; the new town, and the old town located within the fortified walls of the town.
I recommend visiting the Fortress of Peschiera del Garda, as it is its own UNESCO World Heritage Site truly worth the visit.
![tour en verona Desenzano del Garda](https://www.theworldwasherefirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Desenzano-Del-Garda.jpg)

17 Top-Rated Attractions & Things to Do in Verona
Written by Barbara Radcliffe Rogers Updated Dec 22, 2023 We may earn a commission from affiliate links ( )
About halfway between Milan and Venice, Verona is one of Italy's most popular cities for tourists, who revel in its art, architecture, opera, and literary fame . It lies in the sweeping S-curve of the River Adige as it emerges from the Alps. Verona's Centro Storico, the historic center, where you'll find most of the attractions and things to do, is linked with the left bank neighborhoods by 10 bridges.
Because Verona is so often overshadowed by its glamorous neighbor, Venice , tourists often try to see it in one day, but there are so many things to do here that you'll want to spend longer in this charming city.
Verona became a Roman colony in 89 BCE and developed into an important town. There are several remains from this time, including the Roman amphitheater , and the city is equally rich in Romanesque churches from the 11th and 12th centuries.
Verona was an important artistic center in the Renaissance and earlier, under the powerful della Scala family. You'll meet them everywhere, referred to as the Scaligeri. The leading 15th- and 16th-century architects, Fra Giocondo and Michele Sanmicheli, were responsible for several splendid buildings and the bastioned town walls.
You'll find it easy to plan your visit with this handy list of the top tourist attractions and things to do in Verona.

![tour en verona Castelvecchio and Ponte Scaligero](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-castelvecchio.jpg)
On the banks of the Adige, Castelvecchio was built by the Scaligeri in 1354-55, an impressive defensive fortress certain to remind any rivals of the power of the della Scala family. Crossing the river is the beautiful castellated Ponte Scaligero, a 14th-century bridge that's traffic free and among the locals' favorite places to go for a stroll.
The castle's main tower and ramparts afford views of the bridge, the city, and surrounding hills. The castle interior has been brilliantly restored and transformed into bright exhibit space by architect Carlo Scarpa, without sacrificing the integrity or history of the castle.
The collections of the Civico Museo d'Arte are shown here, featuring Veronese sculpture, applied art, and paintings, with works by Bellini, Rubens, Montagna, Guardi, Tiepolo, Tintoretto, Pisano, and artists of the 15th- and 16th-century Veronese school.
A few steps up Corso Cavour is the Arco dei Gavi, a first-century stone arched gate that spanned a Roman road; look for the grooves worn by chariot wheels in the stone below the arch.
Address: Corso Castelvecchio 2 (off Corso Cavour), Verona
![tour en verona Arena di Verona (Roman Amphitheater)](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-amphitheatre.jpg)
One of the largest of its kind and among the best preserved Roman amphitheaters, Verona's arena was built in the reign of Diocletian, about 290 CE. Only four arches of the outer wall on the north side have survived, but the vaulting and seating are intact and in regular use.
Its 44 rows of seating can accommodate 22,000 spectators, and in July and August, it is the home of the Verona Opera Festival , one of Europe's major summer music events ranked with the Bayreuth and Salzburg festivals. Concerts and other events are also held inside.
Address: Piazza Brà, Verona
![tour en verona Casa di Giulietta](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-juliet-house.jpg)
Verona is perhaps best known internationally as the setting for Shakespeare's famous tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. Inevitably, tourists asked where the star-crossed lovers lived, and Veronese obligingly pointed out a small medieval palazzo just off Piazza delle Erbe that had an attractive courtyard where tourists could stand without blocking the street.
In the 1930s, the city added the missing ingredient, building a balcony overlooking the courtyard. Several decades later they added a bronze statue and set up displays inside the house for tourists to look at on their way to be photographed on the balcony.
No matter that the story is fiction, the characters purely imaginative, and the plot not based on any actual events or people in Verona (where Shakespeare had never been), the city has still become a place of pilgrimage to the point where they hire a team of secretaries to answer mail left for the mythical Juliet.
Address: Via Cappello 23, Verona
![tour en verona Basilica of San Zeno Maggiore](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-san-zeno-maggiore.jpg)
The large 11-12th century Basilica of San Zeno Maggiore is considered the finest Romanesque building in northern Italy. The beautiful main front of alternating strata of brick and white tufa is flanked by a slender Romanesque campanile (1045-1178) and the 14th-century battlemented defensive tower of a former Benedictine abbey.
Although you enter through the elegant Romanesque cloister via a gate at the side, be sure to see the bronze doors on the front portal, with outstanding Romanesque reliefs of Biblical and secular scenes.
The interior has an unusual 14th-century timber roof and beautiful Romanesque capitals. In the aisles are frescoes from the 13th to 15th centuries . In the choir is a marble figure, thought to be 14th-century, of St. Zeno, the fourth-century bishop of Verona. His reliquary is in the crypt, which is quite unusual in that it is equal in size and prominence to the chancel above it. On the high altar is a 15th-century Madonna with Saints by Mantegna.
On the third Sunday of the month, a locally popular flea market fills Piazza San Zeno, where you may find everything from salami to antiques.
Address: Piazza San Zeno, Verona
![tour en verona Piazza delle Erbe](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-piazza-delle-erbe.jpg)
The central feature of Verona's Centro Storico is the rectangular Piazza delle Erbe, one of the most picturesque squares in Italy. It stands on the site of the Roman forum and is now a fruit and vegetable market. In the center of the square is the 16th-century Berlina, a canopy on four columns, formerly used for elections. To the north of it is a fountain from 1368 with the Madonna di Verona , an ancient marble statue that was repurposed in medieval times.
At the north end of the square, a marble column holds the lion of St. Mark, the emblem of Verona's former Venetian rulers. At the northeast corner stands the Casa Mazzanti , originally built by the Scaligeri. Like many houses here, it is adorned with Renaissance frescoes. On the north side of the square is the Baroque Palazzo Maffei from 1668, and to the left of this, the 1370 Torre del Gardello .
The Casa dei Mercanti at the corner of Via Pellicciai was rebuilt in 1878 in its original 1301 form. Opposite, rises the 84-meter-high Torre dei Lamberti , with a medieval bell, El Rengo. From the end near the lion of St. Mark, Corso Porta Borsari is interrupted by Porta dei Borsari , a Roman city gate built in the first century CE and restored in 265. At the opposite end is the pedestrianized Via Mancini, Verona's most fashionable shopping street.
![tour en verona Piazza dei Signori and Loggia del Consiglio](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-piazza-dei-signori.jpg)
Accessed through an archway from Piazza delle Erbe , Piazza dei Signori is surrounded by palaces, and in the middle stands a monument to Dante erected in 1865. The Palazzo della Ragione (Town Hall), on the south side of the piazza was begun in 1193 but altered in later centuries. The main front of the building is Renaissance, dating to 1524. In the courtyard are a Gothic grand staircase from 1446-50 and the entrance to the Torre dei Lamberti .
Also in the square are a battlemented tower and the Palazzo dei Tribunali , converted in 1530-31 from a Scaliger Palace and with a Renaissance doorway by Michele Sanmicheli. On the east side of the square is the Palazzo del Governo , originally another Scaligeri palace and also containing a doorway by Sanmicheli.
On the north side of the Piazza dei Signori stands the Loggia del Consiglio, one of the finest Early Renaissance buildings in Italy. It was built by Fra Giocondo from 1486 to 1493, and is crowned by statues of famous citizens of Verona. Recent excavations here have uncovered a Roman street, mosaics, and other remains below the current street level, which you can explore from an entrance off the adjoining large courtyard.
![tour en verona Arche Scaligere (Scaligeri Tombs)](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-scaligers-tombs.jpg)
The lovely little church of Santa Maria Antica was completed in the 12th century and became the family church of the della Scala princes, who ruled Verona in the 13th and 14th centuries. Their imposing Gothic tombs almost overshadow it, topped by their effigies in full armor. Look for their symbol: the ladder (scala) was the heraldic emblem of the family and frequently recurs in the elaborate wrought-iron railings.
Above the church door are the sarcophagus and a copy of an equestrian statue of Cangrande della Scala, who died in 1329 (the original is beautifully displayed at Castelvecchio). To the left are the mural monument of Giovanni, who died in 1359, and the sarcophagus of Mastino I from 1277. Inside the railings, under a canopy, are the sarcophagi and equestrian statues of Mastino II and Cansignorio, who died in 1351 and 1375 respectively.
Address: Via Arche Scaligere, Verona
![tour en verona Piazza Bra in Verona at dusk](https://www.planetware.com/wpimages/2022/06/italy-verona-top-attractions-things-to-do-piazza-bra-dusk.jpg)
The arena forms one side of the wide Piazza Brà, opposite the Palazzo Malfatti, created by Michele Sanmicheli. Adjoining the long building of the Gran Guardi, the old guard-house from 1614, is the gate and tower of I Portoni della Brà , the landmark entry point to Piazza Bra and the old city. Beneath its Romanesque arches is a bust of William Shakespeare and his lines from Romeo and Juliet beginning "There is no world without Verona walls..."
Forming a third side of the piazza is a long row of restaurants with sidewalk terraces that are almost always filled with people. Step through one of the passageways to the tangle of streets just behind the row of restaurants and you'll find several excellent choices that are less crowded with tourists. Two good options are Torcolo on Via Carlo Cattaneo or Ristorante Nastro Azzurro on Vicolo Listone.
![tour en verona Duomo di Santa Maria Matricolare (Cathedral)](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-cathedral.jpg)
The cathedral is a 12th-century Romanesque basilica with a 15th-century Gothic nave. Adjoining it is a campanile on a Romanesque base, designed by Sanmicheli but not completed until 1927. On the beautiful main doorway of the cathedral are figures of Charlemagne's two paladins, Roland and Oliver, done between 1139 and 1153.
Inside, on the first altar to the left, is the church's primary highlight, Titian's 1525 Assumption , and at the end of the south aisle is the Gothic tomb of St. Agatha, from 1353. Especially striking are the red marble pillars and marble choir-screen. To the left of the cathedral is a Romanesque cloister built in 1123, with an early Christian mosaic floor on the lower level.
Address: Piazza Duomo 21, Verona
![tour en verona Sant'Anastasia](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-sant-anastasia.jpg)
A brick church from the late 13th century, Sant'Anastasia towers above a little piazza in the heart of Verona and is the city's finest example of Gothic architecture. Over its portal are scenes from the life of St. Peter carved in stone, and above them, a 15th-century fresco.
Just inside, a pair of grotesques carved from marble hold holy water fonts, the left one by Gabriele Caliari, the father of the artist Paolo Veronese. Don't miss the fresco of St. George and the Princess by Pisanello.
The slender bell tower, 72 meters tall, is known for its nine bells, rung in a traditional style known as Veronese bellringing , an art perpetuated by the Scuola Campanaria Verona in S.Anastasia, an academy of bellringers based at the church.
Address: Piazza Sant'Anastasia, Verona
![tour en verona Giardino Giusti](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-giardino-giusti.jpg)
Behind the 16th-century Palazzo Giusti is the lovely garden, Giardino Giusti, with paths among its eight formal parterres, each with a different pattern of hedges, along with fountains and statues.
A path leads from the back, up the steep embankment to a less formal garden with a grotto and views of the city framed by beautiful old cypresses. Although it's not the largest, it is ranked among the best Renaissance gardens in Italy . Especially in the summer heat, it's a peaceful retreat from the city.
Address: Via Giardino Giusti 2, Verona
![tour en verona Teatro Romano and Ponte Pietra](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-roman-theater.jpg)
Across the Roman bridge of Ponte Pietra, on the hillside below Castel San Pietro , the Roman Theater was built in the first century during the reign of Augustus and excavated between 1904 and 1939. Of the theater itself, you can see the remains of the stage building's tufa walls and stones in the stage pit with holes where the ropes were drawn to open and close the curtains.
More remnants are visible of the auditorium, which was built into the hillside in galleries and terraces, including the floor of the orchestra seating with geometric inlaid marble. The theater is the home of the summer Verona Jazz Festival . The Roman bridge, Ponte Pietra, was blown up during World War II, as were all Verona's bridges, but after the war, the stones were retrieved from the river and painstakingly sorted and reassembled into the bridge that crosses here today.
Address: Regaste Redentore 2, Verona
![tour en verona San Fermo Maggiore](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/I/italy-verona-san-fermo-maggiore.jpg)
The first San Fermo Maggiore was built in the eighth century in memory of saints Fermo and Rustico, believed at the time to have been martyred in the arena. It was replaced in the 11th century with the present structure, and the crypt is the only surviving part of the original.
The current church retains its 11th-century Romanesque lower portion, with a Gothic upper section from the 13th-14th century. The facade is beautifully decorated in marble. The church houses a 14th-century wooden crucifix and Alessandro Turchi's Adoration of the Shepherds. Look for the Pisanello frescoes above the Brenzoni monument, and more frescoes surrounding the ornate pulpit.
Address: Via San Fermo, Verona
![tour en verona Via Mazzini](https://www.planetware.com/wpimages/2021/01/italy-verona-top-attractions-shopping-via-mazzini.jpg)
Leading from Piazza Bra to Piazza delle Erbe, the narrow Via Mazzini runs through the heart of the Centro Storico. The marble pavement of this pedestrianized street is worn by centuries of feet, and the buildings at either side house Verona's most elegant shops. Display windows show the latest in Italian and international fashions, with a mix of trendy names and local boutiques.
Here, as everywhere else in Verona, history is never very far beneath your feet; the ground floor of the Benetton store is covered in glass, so you can see the 1st-century Roman Domus excavated beneath it. Although it's Verona's favorite shopping street, it is also the most popular place to go for the traditional passeggiata , or evening stroll.
![tour en verona Torre dei Lamberti, Verona](https://www.planetware.com/wpimages/2022/06/italy-verona-top-attractions-things-to-do-climb-ride-top-torre-lamberti.jpg)
Constructed in 1172 and heightened to its current lofty 84 meters (276 feet) in the 1400s, Torre dei Lamberti dominates the skylines of both Piazza delle Erbe and Piazza dei Signori. You can distinguish the two periods of construction, as the old tower was built in layers of tuffa and terra cotta, giving it a striped appearance.

![tour en verona Mantova (Mantua) Day Trip](https://www.planetware.com/photos-large/italy-mantua.jpg)
Fifty kilometers south of Verona, the provincial capital of Mantua was the residence of the Gonzaga family from 1328 until 1707, and they made Mantua one of the most refined and cultivated of princely capitals, a great center of art and learning. Their sumptuous residence, the massive Palazzo Ducale , dominates the town and is still one of Italy's most splendid palaces.
Today, it houses several important collections, including paintings, Greek and Roman sculpture, medieval and Renaissance sculpture, and tapestries made from cartoons by Raphael. These are displayed in opulent rooms decorated with frescoes, ceiling paintings, and richly sculptured ceilings.
Also in the center of Mantua, the church of Sant'Andrea is a masterpiece of Early Renaissance architecture built by Leon Battista Alberti in 1472-94, with a transept and choir from 1600. Mantova's third major attraction is the single-story Palazzo del Te , built for the Gonzagas between 1525 and 1535 by Giulio Romano. It is decorated with beautiful frescoes and stucco work.

Stroll along Sirmione's main street of chic shops, and walk or take the tourist trolley to the far end of the peninsula. Here, the Roman poet Catullus, who lived from 84 to 54 BC, built a villa to take advantage of the sulphur springs, which are now used by a luxury spa. The remains of his villa, Grotte di Catullo , and the complex surrounding it are extensive and worth exploring both for their history and for the beautiful lake views.
Verona's main attractions, with few exceptions, lie within the hairpin bend in the River Adige, where the Romans built their town.

The 23 Best Things to Do in Verona
Epic day trips from verona, should you buy the verona card, getting around verona, how many days in verona, where to stay in verona, indulge in some romeo & juliet tourism..
We might as well start with the obvious.
If there’s one thing that Verona is known for, it’s for being the setting of Romeo & Juliet.
Though the play is clearly one of Shakespeare’s tragedies (and a pretty depressing one at that), the supposed romance that is central to the plot has taken on a lore all its own–a lore that still lives on in Verona today, through plenty of historical sights said to be locations of the legend as well as Romeo & Juliet themed tours .
But, because this is Italy and not literature class, it’s worth mentioning that while Shakespeare’s telling is obviously what propelled the story global icon status, the tale of Romeo e Giulietta predates Shakespeare’s play–in fact, legend has it that there was a true example of star-crossed lovers in Verona in the 13th century.
Though the details of their story have mostly been lost to time, writers continued to borrow the legend for poems and stories, and eventually, the legend hit the big time when it caught the eye of William Shakespeare.
Looking for Romeo and Juliet inspired things to do in Verona? Here’s where to look.
If you’re a lover of all things Shakespeare, consider discovering the history behind the legend with a Romeo & Juliet tour !
Juliet’s House
The theoretical home of the Capulet family, usually simply referred to as “Juliet’s house” is the most well-known feature of Romeo & Juliet tourism in Verona.
Juliet’s Tomb
Located in the San Francesco al Corso monastery, Juliet’s (empty) tomb sits in the crypt, where visitors can come and observe where the final moments of Shakespeare’s play are thought to take place.
The monastery is now a museum, and if you’re feeling particularly morbid, you can even get married there!
Romeo’s House
Though the home that is thought to belong to the Montague family is now private, Romeo & Juliet fans still flock to the building to admire the home from the outside. As it is just a short walk from the Capulet home, it’s an easy addition when you’re deciding what to do in Verona!
If you’re a big Shakespeare fan and simply have to get inside, the ground floor of the home is now a restaurant.
Crypt of the Basilica Maggiore
While the Basilica Maggiore is beautiful and worth visiting in its own right, today it is best known for its crypt.
The crypt is thought to be where Romeo & Juliet got married and is open to visitors hoping to take a peek at the real-life location of the legendary wedding!
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Letters to Juliet](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaLettersToJulia.jpg)
Make your way through Piazza Bra.
As Verona’s largest piazza and the home of its arena, Piazza Bra is an excellent and popular place to start working through the best things to do in Verona.
Definitely visit and check out the highlights–but, like with most central piazzas that now serve as tourism centers, it’s best to avoid eating and drinking here, as you’ll likely pay inflated prices for substandard cuisine.
Verona Arena
Two thousand years is a long time to entertain a city–but the Verona Arena has risen to the challenge.
Not only can you tour this arena and admire its long history dating back to the Roman Empire during the day, concerts and plays often fill the arena at night.
Today, the arena can still hold a whopping 22,000 visitors, down from its original volume of 30,000.
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Verona Arena](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaArena.jpg)
Palazzo Barbieri
While visiting Piazza Bra, be sure to glance over and pay attention to the Palazzo Barbieri–it is a beautiful 19th-century palace that now serves as Verona’s town hall.
Portoni della Bra
This beautiful 14th-century gate sits on the edge of Piazza Bra and is a clear combination of the old and the new: this ancient gate still stands above a road, which these days holds modern cars instead of horses!
Stroll across the Ponte Pietra.
The oldest bridge in Verona (it dates back to 100 BC!) also ended up being one of my favorite spots in the city, because it was just so beautiful everywhere we looked!
Down the Adige River? Gorgeous view. The buildings lining the river, bursting with spring flowers? Gorgeous view. Looking back toward the Castel San Pietro in the hills above the bridge? Also a gorgeous view!
And sure, having great weather and visiting during the spring helped, but whenever you visit, don’t miss visiting the Ponte Pietra when you’re in Verona!
![tour en verona The Best Things to Do in Verona: Ponte Pietra](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaBridge-3.jpg)
Soak in the views from the Castel San Pietro.
The lawn of the Castel San Pietro is easily the most famous viewpoint in Verona: from here the Adige River, the cities many bridges and towers, and many terracotta rooftops are all visible.
We spent far longer than we intended up here, perched on the walls and admiring the view–and if you’re looking for a great place for a picnic in Verona, this is it.
If you only have time for a few of the very best things to do in Verona, make sure that a visit to Castel San Pietro is one of them.
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Castel San Pietro](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaVeronaOverlookKate.jpg)
Go whitewater rafting.
Before arriving in Verona, it had never occurred to me to go whitewater rafting through a city in Italy.
As soon as we arrived and saw the rafts dotting the Adige River, though, I regretted not having time to book a trip.
Whitewater rafting through Verona sounds like a fantastic adventure, and it’s at the top of our list of things to do in Verona on our next visit.
You can combine rafting & biking with this fun adventure tour in Verona!
Check out the Teatro Romano ruins.
When walking up to Castel San Pietro, be sure to leave enough time to explore the nearby Roman Theatre ruins!
Not to be confused with the Verona Arena, this 2,000-year-old theatre is beautiful and in remarkably good shape for its age.
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Buildings](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaBuildings-2-2.jpg)
Eat some risotto.
Every city in Italy has its iconic dishes, and in Verona, the best-known among them is risotto.
This creamy rice dish is very tasty, and tasting some is an absolute must on your list of things to do in Verona!
Visit Piazza delle Erbe.
Piazza Bra may be the biggest square in Verona, but Piazza delle Erbe is arguably just as well known. Often known as Market Square, Piazza delle Erbe is regularly overflowing with market stalls selling everything from touristy trinkets to fruit and is almost always bustling and busy.
Whether you drop by when the market is hopping or at a quieter moment when the stalls are shut down and the large space of the piazza stretches out in front of you, be sure to spend a few moments sitting in the shade and watching the city go by in Piazza delle Erbe.
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Piazza delle Erbe](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaFromTowerView.jpg)
Climb the Torre dei Lamberti.
Verona’s tallest tower, the Torre dei Lamberti, dominates one side of the Piazza delle Erbe and boasts some stunning views of both the square and of Verona!
Originally built in the 12th century (though it was expanded in later years), the Torre dei Lamberti is a fantastic viewpoint, and the climb up is easily one of the best things to do in Verona.
If stairs aren’t your thing, there is an elevator you can take up as well–though keep in mind you’ll still have to climb a few flights of stairs from where the elevator drops you off in order to reach the observation deck.
Try your hand at a cooking class.
Taking a cooking class in Italy is always a treat!
In Verona, consider taking a class based around local specialties: think risotto, bigoli pasta, and pandoro cakes.
Like anywhere else in Italy, if you add a cooking class to your list of things to do in Verona, you’re sure to walk away with a very full stomach and plenty of fond memories!
Wander the streets of Centro Storico.
Verona’s historical center is not only the location of most of the best things to do in Verona, it’s a sight worth exploring in its own right.
Colorful buildings, beautiful storefronts, gorgeous shutters, and narrow cobblestone streets all greet you in Centro Storico–especially when you step off of the best-known thoroughfares to spend a little time exploring the small back streets of the neighborhood!
![tour en verona Things to Do in Verona: Centro Storico](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaStreet.jpg)

Add the Giusti Gardens to your list of things to do in Verona and spend some time relaxing in the shade, wandering past the flowers, or even to trying your hand at the hedge maze located in the garden.
Pay a visit to Castello Vecchio & its bridge.
Dating back to the Middle Ages and the time of the Scaliger family, Castello Vecchio is a castle in the most traditional of senses: it was built with defense, not beauty, in mind.
Today, a museum holding everything from paintings to bells to weapons is located in the castle.
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Castelvecchio](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaBridge.jpg)
Go see the Arco dei Gavi.
Dating back to the Romans themselves, this arch has had a long and busy life.
It first served as the entrance to Via Postumia, which led between Rome and Verona. Later, it had another life in the Middle Ages as a gate to the city, when Verona was walled.
Eventually, the arch was removed to the Arena until the rebuilding that took place in 1932–that rebuilt arch, made with the same stones as the original, can be viewed today next door to Castello Vecchio!
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Arco dei Gavi](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaArch.jpg)
Duck into the Verona Cathedral.
Boasting a more opulent interior than many Italian cathedrals, the 12th-century Verona Cathedral is definitely worth a step inside.
Be sure to look up–the artwork above the altar is absolutely beautiful!
Check out the Scaliger tombs.
Intricate and eye-catching, the tombs of the Scaliger family are an easy way to add an interesting stop on your list of things to do in Verona.

The Madonna della Corona Chapel
An adorable 16th-century chapel built into the side of a cliff: the Madonna della Corona Chapel is one of those places you simply have to see to believe, and it certainly makes for a unique day trip from Verona!
Despite the relatively short distance, you’ll likely need a car to take a day trip to Bologna from Verona–but it is worth the drive.
As Italy’s foodie capital (as well as the capital of the Emilia Romagna region), Bologna is a place to come to eat!
One day in Bologna is best spent eating everything in sight (a food tour is highly recommended), and then spending your remaining time burning off the excess calories by climbing up gorgeous viewpoints like the Asinelli Tower.
If you have some extra time on your hands in Bologna, also consider going on a walk to find the hidden medieval canals of the city–you have to know where to look, but they are beautiful once you find them!

The Verona Card is very inexpensive compared to many city cards and comes with the benefits of skip-the-line tickets for most major sights like the Verona Arena, Castelvecchio, and Torre dei Lamberti, as well as access to Verona’s city bus system.
If you’re planning on hitting most of the major things to do in Verona, definitely consider purchasing the Verona Card to save time and money during your trip!
Check prices & buy the Verona Card today!
Centro Storico and the neighborhoods surrounding it are fairly walkable, though we did find that attractions were further apart than in extremely compact Italian cities like Florence, Venice, and Bologna.
We walked everywhere in Verona, with the exception of taking the city bus to the train station when we arrived in and left the city.
However, if you prefer not to walk long distances or book a hotel more than a short walk outside of the Centro Storico, you may end up using the bus system more.
You’ll also likely be heading to the train station if you take any day trips out of Verona (many regional buses leave from there as well).
You can purchase tickets onboard the city buses, however, you’ll pay a premium as opposed to purchasing tickets in advance–so try to get your hands on some tickets before your journey.
If you choose to purchase a Verona Card, rides on the city bus are included for the duration of the card’s validity.

Verona is a beautiful and laid-back city that lends itself to mornings spent meandering side streets and long afternoons at outdoor cafes–in other words, it would be hard to spend too much time in Verona if you’re looking for a quiet Italian getaway!
If you have limited time and are hoping to hit the highlights of the city, we’d recommend at least two days to check out the best things to do in Verona. If you only have one day, it’s still definitely worth visiting Verona, but you’ll likely have to cut some stops from your itinerary.
If you have three or more days to spend in the city, start looking at adding some day trips to your list of things to do in Verona!
![tour en verona Best Things to Do in Verona: Square](https://www.ourescapeclause.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/VeronaSquare-3.jpg)
There’s no shortage of great places to stay in Verona–here are a few excellent, well-reviewed and well-located picks to consider.
Hotel Gardenia — Hotel Gardenia offers clean and comfortable rooms, a popular included breakfast, good reviews, and a location near a bus stop to reach the center of Verona. The catch? For budget prices, you’ll need to break out that bus pass regularly–Hotel Gardenia (nor most hotels in its price range) are within walking distance of Centro Storico.
Check rates & book your stay at Hotel Gardenia!
Relais Empire — With a fantastic location just a short walk from Piazza Bra, beautifully decorated rooms, and incredibly good reviews, it’s hard to imagine a better place to stay in Verona on a midrange budget than the Relais Empire!
Check rates & book your stay at the Relais Empire!
Hotel Milano & Spa — Want to spend your time in Verona in the lap of luxury? Consider a stay at the Hotel Milano, where spa services and a jacuzzi overlooking the Verona Arena are just a few of the amenities. Located in the heart of Verona and boasting near-perfect reviews, you couldn’t ask for a better spot to relax in Verona.
Check rates & book your stay at the Hotel Milano & Spa!

In May 2016, I left my suburban life in the USA and became a full-time traveler. Since then, I have visited 50+ countries on 5 continents and lived in Portugal, developing a special love of traveling in Europe (especially Italy) along the way. Today, along with my husband Jeremy and dog Ranger, I’m working toward my eventual goal of splitting my life between Europe and the USA.

The Romeo and Juliet tour sounds so interesting! Would love to do that!
Thanks, Juan!
Walking around Verona is the best thing morning and night time. Make sure not to miss the Scaliger Castle of Villafranca next time you pay a visit to Verona. Enjoy your travels!
Thanks, Andrea! We’ll add it to the list. :-)

Free Tour en Español de la Ciudad de Verona
El Verdadero
desde el día 18 abril de 2019
![Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol](https://globaluserfiles.com/media/2785_38c7fb605a595c866ae4b47556cbbb4e01c255ea.png/v1/w_825,h_0/dscn5781.png)
El Sabado, Domingo, Lunes, Martes y el Viernes a las 11.00
El jueves 6 de Enero haremos el freetour
En estos días recomendamos la reserva gratuita para garantizar la presencia de la guía.
Para Reservar
Punto de encuentro:, en plaza brà a la fuente que està en el centro de la plaza, ¿es necesario reservar.
El tour es un tour abierto, basta presentarse 5 minutos antes del inicio, pero si te quedas más tranquilo nos puedes enviar un email.
![Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol](https://globaluserfiles.com/media/2785_edc8cafe60661f20f50f7047b59e36f43fe3780f.png/v1/w_0,h_793/dscn5826.png)
¿ Hay un numero mínimo de participantes?
El tour se realiza aunque haya solo una persona, nuestro objetivo es que todo el mundo pueda disfrutar de un servicio de calidad.
¿Cuánto cuesta?
El auténtico free tour es un tour abierto, en el sentido de que todo el mundo puede participar y no es necesario reservar. No es gratuito porque somos profesionales que nos dedicamos a esto, y creemos que el trabajo va remunerado, por eso pedimos una oferta mínima de 5 euros por persona.
¿Quienés somos?
Somos un grupo de guías turísticos locales autorizados, nuestro amor por la ciudad y por los viajes nos ha hecho decidir dedicarnos a esto como profesión.
Para obtener el título de guía oficial, no solo se tiene que tener pasión, sino que también unos conocimientos muy altos del territorio, ya que el examen para obtener la licencia es muy exhaustivo, es realizado por una comisión de expertos locales en historia, historia del arte, geografía, enogastronomia y legislación turística italiana.
Los guías turísticos en Italia además de una carrera universitaria dominan otros dos idiomas extranjeros, a parte del italiano, a nivel de B2. Este examen lo que hace es garantizar la calidad del servicio.
![Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol](https://globaluserfiles.com/media/2785_8f515c8c9e4a8b1b6a37878bf3d7a73ce9e8d623.png/v1/w_0,h_524/pontecastelvecchio6.png)
¿Porque hacemos freetours?
Creemos que todo el mundo tiene derecho a poder hacer un tour de calidad con profesionales, en base a sus capacidades económicas y de tiempo, por eso hemos decido ofrecer este servicio que a la vez os servirá a vosotros para valorar nuestra manera de trabajar.
Hay una pequeña cuota de participación - € 5,00 - que nos permite pagar los gastos básicos de organizar el tour y, luego, por supuesto está abierta a propinas: pero al final de la visita tú serás quien valore nuestro trabajo, pudiéndonos dar una propina mayor…
![Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol Verona, free tour, free, tour, guia, espanol](https://globaluserfiles.com/media/2785_5a14e87cf3b30d0664709eb8bbf502b15ecc9f2b.png/v1/w_0,h_892/archescaligere5.png)
¿ Puedo hacer tour privados o visitas a otras zonas de Verona?
¡Por supuesto! Ese es nuestro verdadero trabajo, si queréis un tour solo para vosotros, un itinerario más personalizado, una visita al lago di Garda o a las bodegas de la zona, contáctanos y te haremos un tour a medida.
¿Qué se visita durante el tour?
Consiste en una visita solo a pie, para descubrir así los monumentos más importantes de la ciudad: Piazza Bra con la famosa Arena romana, la puerta Romana Porta Borsari , a través de la cual entraremos en el casco antiguo para adentrarnos en el corazón de Verona y pasear por las plazas más importantes: Piazza Erbe , Piazza dei Signori , el cementerio de la familia Scala con las famosas “arche”…. para terminar con la famosa Casa de Julieta ! que hace que la ciudad sea conocida en todo el mundo.
La duración del tour es de una hora y media, tiempo necesario para tener una visión general y completa de la ciudad, para poder luego moverse por la ciudad y visitar otros monumentos en libertad.
Verona es una ciudad casi totalmente peatonal y sin desniveles, por lo que un tour a pie es la mejor manera de conocerla.
Porque elegir un guía oficial y no un tour de guías no autorizados.
La primera razón es porque en Italia, para poder enseñar una ciudad histórica, y más patrimonio de la humanidad, hay que tener el título de guía turístico y que llevar siempre a la vista la licencia, si no es así se hace algo ilegal, punible por la ley.
El examen de guía turístico es muy exigente, por lo cual la calidad y los conocimientos de los guías están garantizados.
¡Nosotros no trabajamos solo por pasión, nosotros hemos hecho de nuestra pasión una profesión!
