Verona

Discover Verona

The setting of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, a trip to Verona will guarantee love on first visit. Dating all the way back to Roman days, Verona is just an hour's train away from Venice, making it the perfect space to enjoy a romantic trip in relative privacy.

Your own tale of romance

To set the perfect ambience for your holiday, a trip to Piazza delle Erbe is sure to delight. Enjoy the sights and sounds of the bustling city market during the day, or take a leisurely dinner with drinks in the evening. Buy a biglietto unico (single ticket) to gain entry to all four of Verona's stunning churches, or if you're lucky enough to visit in summer, take advantage of the open-air opera festival, a sure-fire way to get into the Italian spirit.

If you'd rather indulge in activities that are a little less traditional, Verona is also home to the Via Mazzini, also known as "the Golden Mile". Drift in and out of the likes of Gucci, Prada and Cartier, or climb the Castel San Pietro hill for panoramic views of the city. The perfect entry-level way to explore Italy, Verona is ready and waiting to delight and surprise you.
