We booked a private tour of sirmione online, the process was easy and as it was private we were able to leave 30 minutes before the allocated time. We saw others on the joint tours and felt having the boat to ourselves was fully worth it. Best seats going, our captain Alex was great. Good commentary and took photos for us. Great day out!

The view from the garden was amazing. Jacopo was very informative about the wine making process, how to pair them with food, and how to tell the quality of the wines made in Italy. Each wine that he brought out had its own distinct flavor based on the process of how it was made and it made the experience more enjoyable. If you haven't had a chance to try some Italian wine but are interested, this is a great place to start!

We had an enjoyable tour with Julia. We walked past the Colosseum, and saw the Arche Scaligere, Piazza del Signori, Piazza delle Erbe and Juliet's House. We learned about the architecture in Verona and the symbols used to indicate support for the Holy Roman Empire (and not for the Papal States). This tour covered about half of Verona's main attractions and did so with an economical use of time.

We had a wine tasting at the beginning of October and it was great! We've tasted several wines, salami and cheese. Everybody was really kind and they've explained everything we wanted to know. At the end you can buy the wine and olive oil at the local store. We will come again on our next stay at Lazise.

What a fantastic experience! So much more than just an e-bike rental: you get curated routes, via an easy-to-use GPS system that hooks on to your bike, which takes you past places you would never see otherwise. We did the Palladian tour but, outside of Covid time, you can apparently do wine tours and all sorts of things that we will plan to do next year. But more generally, E-biking in this wonderful part of the world is the best way to see it. We happen to love Palladian architecture, so we felt very lucky to see his masterpieces throughout the countryside. But even if you just want to see a lot of beautiful country off the beaten track, this is the way to do it! and though we are not a sporty family, we got up mountains (and down them)! About the company: the service was great, bikes were totally easy to master, can’t say enough about it. Also you get to rent your bikes out of a Palladian villa. Unbelievable. Recommended!!
