Tour description
Verona is a city of stone and romance, where a 2,000-year-old Roman amphitheatre still hosts summer operas and the legend of Romeo and Juliet draws lovers from around the world. On this walking tour a local guide unfolds the layers of Verona's history, from its Roman origins to its golden age under the Scaligeri lords.
You will stand beneath the mighty Arena, wander the marble streets to Juliet's famous balcony, and discover graceful squares that feel like open-air museums. Along the way you will hear the real stories behind the myths and see why UNESCO added the whole historic centre to its World Heritage list.
