I enjoyed how small the tour group was. Made it more personal and we got to talk to our tour guide and ask questions. The tour was very relaxing and we had plenty of free time to explore on our own.
Alessandro made us all feel welcome from the start. He had so much knowledge about Verona, Lake Garda, Sirmione and Borghetto. He gave us free time to explore in Sirmione. The pasta lunch in Borghetto was lovely sat by the river. The boat ride was short but it gives you a taste of the lake and history on the shoreline of Sirmione. I would highly recommend.
My friend and I had a marvellous experience with our guide. Alessandro is a very well informed guide who speaks perfect English. He's kind and considerate. After a guided visit by boat and on foot in Sirmione, He took us to Borghetto where we enjoyed a delicious lunch. Alessandro then walked us through this hamlet commenting on its history. The journey back through the beautiful italian landscape covered in vines, kiwi fields etc...was a delight. We both recommend highly this company. Grazie Alessandro alla prossima volta.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm really happy to hear that you and your friend had such a marvellous experience. It was a pleasure sharing Sirmione by boat and on foot, and then continuing the day in the charming Borghetto. I'm glad you enjoyed both the lunch and the little walk through the hamlet while discovering its history together. The drive back through the vineyards and kiwi fields is one of those simple but beautiful parts of the day, and I'm pleased it left such a positive impression. Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation. It was a real pleasure having you on the tour—grazie, and hopefully see you next time! Alessandro
Amazing trip. Alessandro picked us up in a nice air conditioned vehicle and gave us great commentary enroute to Sirmione. He took us ahead of other tourists for our boat trip around the peninsula and provided in-depth history of the area. The boat trip is just wow. Sirmione was busy but lovely. Borghetto was amazing. We ate here and had the best meal of our holiday. Definitely a place I’d like to revisit. The 8 of us on the trip all got on really well so that made the trip even more memorable.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed the whole experience from start to finish. It’s great to know you appreciated the comfort of the transport and the stories along the way to Sirmione. I’m especially glad the boat trip around the peninsula left such a strong impression—it’s definitely one of those “wow” moments on Lake Garda. Borghetto is a very special place, so I’m delighted it became one of your highlights, especially with such a great meal to finish the day. I’m also happy to hear the group got along so well—that always adds something extra to the experience. Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation. I hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! Alessandro
The hike was well balanced; it's not very strenuous. The tour of the lake around Sirmione was very nice. Some tourists felt it short, it was about half an hour, but that left time to walk. The little town is picturesque. The guide Alexandro was very professional and cordial with everyone. He took us to a place where we ate well in another village. A relaxed and beautiful experience that does not require much physical effort.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful review. I’m really glad to hear that you appreciated the balance of the experience and the relaxed pace of the hike—that’s exactly what I aim to create, something enjoyable without being too demanding. Sirmione and the lake always offer a special atmosphere, and I’m happy you enjoyed both the boat tour and the time to explore on your own. Thank you as well for your kind words about my approach. It was a pleasure spending the day together, and I’m glad you enjoyed the stop for lunch in the village too. I hope to welcome you again for another experience in the future. Alessandro
