This tour is excellent, especially if you don't have a lot of time in Verona. Fabio is a wonderful guide and story teller who clearly loves what he's doing. If you only have time for one tour and you love a bit of history, this is the tour to be doing.

What an amazing experience. We went during the off season, so it ended up just being us. The chef (Christina) made our experience very memorable. From start to finish, just amazing.

Fantastic experience. Went to two very different wineries. Not only did we get to taste incredible wines, but we also learned so much!! Highly recommend!

All the family loved this scavenger hunt. It was fun looking for the clues….up high or looking for Italian letters, spot the differences.

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