Verona Bike Tour
There are two Verona bike tour options you can choose between:
Classic Tour (3 hours)
We'll meet at 9.30 am and get on the bikes. Ready to explore this city?
The 7 km bike tour through the city of Verona is the best way to combine sightseeing with exercise. We'll first go near the Castelvecchio to admire the Ponte Scaligero and then we'll pedal along the Adige River until we reach the Ponte Pietra. On the way, our guide will tell us interesting facts and legends about this incredible city.
Our next destination: the Castle of San Pietro, a building from the Iron Age. We'll make a stop here and discover all about the renovations that this ancient building has undergone. Then we'll head to Piazza delle Erbe, where you'll be able to admire the imposing Lamberti Tower. Before the end of the tour, we'll go see the outside of the Verona Arena, an amazing amphitheater that will remind you of the Colosseum in Rome.
Meeting point: 7 Via Ristori.
Romeo and Juliet (3.5 hours)
At 3.30 pm we'll meet up and get on our bikes to start our Romeo and Juliet tour. Who's excited? We'll discover the places where the story of literature's most famous lovers unfolded, from the balcony where they fell in love to the crypt where they got married, and also burn some calories while we do so. It's a win-win!
During this bike tour, about 7 kilometers long, we'll come to learn that the city of Verona has much more to offer than just the story of these star-crossed lovers. We'll explore the city, its most interesting streets, hidden gardens, and curious water wells.
We'll arrive at the highlight of our tour: the Crypt of San Zeno. This building is famously known for its architecture and because it hosted the wedding of Romeo and Juliet in Shakespeare's masterpiece. What's more, we'll have the chance to go inside and admire this iconic place.
Now it's time to ride the cable car at Castel San Pietro, where we'll get some fresh air and a brief break. There, we'll also enjoy a complimentary drink while admiring the views of Verona. After this last stop, we'll return by bike to the starting point.
Meeting point: 5 Via Madonna del Terraglio.
