Itinerary
Please choose your preferred 8 day itinerary
Local departure by coach or Door-to-Door service, then to Belgium for an overnight stay.
We continue to Italy for a five-night stay, at either the Lady Maria Hotel in Fondo or the Hotel Panorama in neighbouring Malosco.
Includes Breakfast
After breakfast, we have an included excursion to the second-largest city in the Veneto region, Verona. This beautiful Roman city is situated alongside the River Adige and is the setting for William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Verona was a Roman city, and many Roman ruins have been preserved, notably the Arena. Most of the historical sights to see today date from the past 800 years. If you are keen on art history, Verona offers a golden opportunity to see the transition of western European art from late medieval to early renaissance styles, with its rich offering of 12-Century churches and art museums. Verona's military importance has also left city fortifications and an excellent castle.
To introduce you to the city’s array of spectacular sights, why not join our optional guided walking tour. The many historic buildings, the mighty Roman Arena famous for its summer opera performances (entrance not included) and Juliet’s balcony make it a lovely place to explore on foot, and our local guides informative commentary will reveal the history of this magnificent city. You will also have time to browse amongst the shops or take a coffee break in one of the many cafés in Piazza Bra overlooking the Arena.
