My friend and I had a fabulous day out (12-4pm) on this trip. The compare asked us what languages we spoke and then he gave a running commentary in every language fluently! We had lunch , which was a bowl of pasta in tomato sauce, which was fine and we could choose a drink from the bar. We went along the lake Garda and then stopped at an appropriate spot for us to get off the boat and swim . The weather was hot and this was really most welcome. There was a short platform for people to jump or dive into the water or if you were oldies like us (in our 70’s) there were steps you could go down. We all laughed and played in the water with the boats floats, great fun . It was a brilliant end to a few days in Verona, we had been to see the opera on Sunday and finished our holiday with this trip. Really lovely thanks .

Izabella was wonderful! She took her time and we went to 2 wineries. Fratelli was awesome, highly recommend!!! She customized to my needs. From now on I do like private guides as the experience is the best. Izabella was very knowledgeable and fun. Next time I would stay by lake Garda, beautiful lake and peaceful area away from tourists.

A very nice day and highly recommended. Gigi is super nice, explains a lot and the food was delicious. My little one (7) was even allowed to drive himself, which was of course a highlight.

Well planned tour. The guide was knowledgable and a safe driver. The wine tour gave a lot of information and the wines were good. The lake was beautiful.

Great trip out on Lake Garda, swimming, sightseeing and relaxing.
