The romantic routes in Northern Italy

The most Mediterranean of Italy’s alpine lakes, Lake Garda offers its visitors a natural play of lights and colours which make it one of the most popular holiday resorts all the year round. On this tour you will have the chance to visit some internationally renowned cities rich in culture and history.

Sirmione: the city centre is characterised by the narrow alleys with the walls of stone, offering its visitors romantic and suggestive views. Today Sirmione is one of the most important tourist centres of the Garda Lake

Mantova: the city of the Gonzaga family, a true Renaissance jewel in Italy. Approaching the city, the waters of the Mincio River separate and form three lakes. After visiting the centre you can join an exciting boat excursion along the banks of the river.

Verona: the favourite city of lovers, scenery of the history of Romeo and Juliet. Time spent here will be also rewarded for the artistic and architectural heritage of Verona
