Traveler reviews
Great tour and even better tour guide.
This was a very good tour. The boat part took us around the peninsula, then under a couple of bridges and back to where we started at the Castello Scaligero. Then Serena, our guide took us on a 2+ hour walking of the town, neighborhoods, churches and the grotto. The grotto, and history of its construction was very interesting. Great tour, especially Serena.
Great tour experience!!
