What's included

Itinerary

1. 1

   Bardolino

   Pass by

   Bardolino is one of the most well-known villages on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, surrounded by vineyards and hills. Its origins date back to the Roman era, while in the Middle Ages the town developed as a fortified and commercial center. Today is famous above all for Bardolino wine, produced in the surrounding countryside, and for its lively lakeside promenade overlooking the waters of Garda.

2. 2

   Garda

   Pass by

   Look, it is one of the most characteristic villages on the Veronese side of Lake Garda, nestled at the foot of the Rocca. Of ancient origin, in the Middle Ages it became an important fortified and commercial center, so much so that it gave its name to the entire lake. Today it boasts an elegant lakeside promenade, historic villas, quaint alleys, and splendid views of the waters and surrounding mountains.

3. 3

   Villa degli Albertini

   Pass by

   Along the road to San Vigilio, Villa Becelli-Albertini intertwines noble ambition and the Risorgimento: born as a sixteenth-century residence, it was redesigned with crenellated towers and hosted Charles Albert of Savoy in June 1848.

4. 4

   Stop 4

   15min

   Documented as an inn since 1498, San Vigilio is one of those rare addresses where refreshment is also memory: the arrival by water, the tavern on the small harbor, and the period rooms tell centuries of lakeside hospitality.

5. 5

   Baia delle Sirene

   Pass by

   The bay is more than an equipped beach: the name recalls the imagery of sirens and the natural cove of San Vigilio, protected by olive trees and cypress trees, is among the places where Garda has built its most refined bathing iconography.
