Tour description
Verona is a city of stone and romance, where a 2,000-year-old Roman amphitheater still hosts summer operas and the legend of Romeo and Juliet draws lovers from around the world. On this walking tour, a local guide will peel back Verona's layers of history, from its Roman origins to its golden age under the Scaliger lords.
You will stand beneath the mighty Arena, stroll along marble-paved streets to Juliet's famed balcony, and discover elegant squares that feel like open-air museums. Along the way, you'll hear the real stories behind the legends and see why UNESCO listed the entire historic center as a World Heritage Site.
