The Verona card included entrance to the arena, Juliet's house, the church of San Fermo, the Lamberti tower, Palazzo Maffei (with a supplement to pay), buses in the urban area and many other attractions. The only flaw is that it must be physically collected at the IAT in front of the arena, perhaps a digital version could be more convenient

Great little card to access the places we wanted to go. We only visited 3 attractions and more than got our money's worth. It could have been better if we were able to pick the tickets up at the airport, there by saving the cost of the shuttle service in to the centre. The tourist information office were brilliant too.

Alle haupt Sehenswürdigkeiten mit dieser Karte stehen zur Verfügung. Das Büro ist in der Mitte der Stadt und sehr einfach erreichbar. In großem und ganzen bin ich ganz zufrieden und kann diese Karte jedem empfehlen.

Was only here for 2-3 hours and was able to do 4-5 activities! Would recommend getting this pass if in Verona!

Such a good deal. Got the two day pass and it was perfect!
