Day 1 - 3
The vibrant metropolis of Milan is the capital of Italy’s Lombardy region in northern Italy. Always at the forefront of international fashion, Milan’s sleek, glamorous facade has earned it a reputation for superficiality and excessive consumerism. However, beneath the surface lies a treasure trove of historical and architectural wonders—from its magnificent Gothic churches, Baroque mansions, and Art Nouveau palazzos to the striking modern skyscrapers of the Porta Nuova financial district. Must-see landmarks include the spectacular Milan Cathedral (Duomo), the glass-vaulted Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and of course, La Scala—one of the world’s most renowned opera houses. Milan offers something for everyone: those in search of high-end designer shopping will be more than satisfied, as will visitors interested in fascinating historical sites and extraordinary architectural achievements.

With a ride in the elevator, you will reach the top for panoramic views of Milan, offering an unforgettable perspective of the city and the cathedral itself.

Day 4 - 5
Situated in the Veneto region of northern Italy, the city of Verona is a romantic gem that lives up to its literary fame. It’s no wonder Shakespeare chose this enchanting place as the backdrop for Romeo and Juliet. Travelers come to see Juliet’s iconic balcony and experience the city’s dreamy, timeless atmosphere. Unlike its more crowded neighbor Venice, Verona maintains a calm, relaxed pace. The city’s architectural treasures include the incredible 2,000-year-old Roman Arena, which hosts an acclaimed summer opera festival. Baroque façades, stately palazzos, and cobblestone alleys are home to museums packed with historical and artistic treasures. Verona also boasts stylish boutiques and outstanding restaurants serving some of Italy’s finest cuisine.
Set in the heart of the storied city of Verona, the Hotel Indigo Verona - Grand Hotel Des Arts is in a privileged location just moments away from Verona’s historic center, the Porta Nuova, Piazza Bra, and the Arena. The interior is stylishly decorated with paintings and sculptures of famous artists such as Ciardi, Cascella, and Minguzzi. You'll find 62 rooms with complimentary Wi-Fi, air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and coffee/tea making facilities. The hotel offers a rich buffet for breakfast and an international buffet with sweet and savory dishes. Within easy reach of the property are restaurants, shops, wine bars, and numerous places of historical and cultural interest.
Take a break from the bustle of the city and immerse yourself in the stunning natural beauty of Lake Garda—Italy’s largest and most enchanting lake. This private full-day tour from Verona offers the perfect blend of scenic landscapes, historic charm, and laid-back Italian elegance.
Your journey begins with a leisurely drive along the lake’s southern shores, passing rolling vineyards, olive groves, and picturesque villages. The highlight of the day is the magical town of Sirmione, a gem perched on a narrow peninsula that stretches into the lake. Here, you’ll have time to explore the charming old town, visit the impressive Scaliger Castle, and walk out to the Grotte di Catullo—the atmospheric ruins of a Roman villa with breathtaking lake views.
Enjoy some free time to browse local boutiques, sample regional delicacies, or simply relax by the water with a scoop of artisanal gelato. Weather permitting, you can also take an optional boat ride for unforgettable views of the castle and peninsula from the lake.
If you wish, your day can include additional stops in Bardolino or Lazise, two inviting lakeside towns known for their relaxed vibe, lovely promenades, and excellent local wines.
Your driver will tailor the itinerary to your interests and pace, ensuring a personalized and unforgettable Lake Garda experience.

Organization from the rental car to the hotels to the airport transfer was once again excellent.
