Trip Itinerary

Day 1 : UK – Verona

After arriving in Verona, drop your bags off at your preferred hotel and then venture out into the city! Sitting in Piazza Bra, the centre of Verona, is one of the most delightful activities in the area. In the late afternoon and early evening, partake in an aperitivo, a beloved Italian custom. Choose from one of the numerous eateries located around the square, settle down, enjoy an aperitif, and watch the crowd. If you choose to have dinner here, you'll be treated to your first taste of the opera, as you'll most likely hear the music and singing from the performance occurring tonight. So keep an ear out!
