Itinerary
Your experience begins in the historic center of Verona, at Teatro Ristori. Here you’ll meet your guide and join a small group (maximum 8 people) before boarding a comfortable minivan. From this point, your journey into the wines of Verona begins, exploring everything from Valpolicella to the renowned Amarone.
Your first stop is a small, family-run winery that offers an authentic and personal experience. You’ll meet the producer, discover how the wine is stored and aged, and enjoy a guided tasting of four wines. During the tasting, the winemaker will share insights into the unique characteristics and traditions behind each label.
You’ll then continue to a second winery, also family-run but with a more modern approach. Here, you’ll meet the producer and explore the different areas of the cellar before starting your tasting. The visit concludes with a guided tasting of four wines, allowing you to compare styles and deepen your understanding of the Valpolicella region.

Absolutely Amazing Amarone Wine Tasting Tour!
I just completed the Amarone Wine Tasting Tour from Verona with Private Transportation by Waystours (a B Corp which I was so excited to see!), and it was absolutely amazing! This was one of the highlights of my time in Italy. Our tour guide was outstanding. Knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the region and its wines. They took us to two fantastic properties where we enjoyed beautiful storytelling, excellent wine tastings, and wonderful hospitality. The combination of learning the history and traditions behind Amarone while sipping world-class wines in such stunning settings was unforgettable. I especially loved how the experience fostered a sense of connection and friendships among the group. The private transportation made everything seamless and comfortable, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the day without any stress. If you’re in Verona and love wine, history, and great company, I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Waystours delivered a perfect balance of education, tasting, and genuine warmth. Thank you for an exceptional experience—we’ll definitely be back!

We had a wonderful tour with Stefano. He brought us to two amazing vineyards where we had very engaging tours and got to sample lots of delicious wine and snacks. Stefano was very knowledgeable on the full process and answered all our questions. We learned so much! We also really liked the small tour group size.The transportation was comfortable and the meeting point was easy to find. Thank you :)
