The sailing ship "Siora Veronica", designed and built between 1926 and 1927 together with other one hundred similar ships, was used for regattas on Garda lake. In 2001 Siora Veronica, one of the last two ships remaining of the great fleet, was restored to become a charming and stilish sailing ship

Great experience! Excellent onboard staff and a good evening aperitif.
Wonderful experience but with no guide to inform us of the various locations on the lake we had no idea where we were !
31 euros for a simple trip from shore to shore of the lake is an exaggeration, especially since they offer nothing on board the boat; any drink, even water, is for a fee (5 euros for a glass of Coca-Cola, 3 euros for water... just like in Piazza Duomo in Milan!). The guide gives just 2 measly pieces of information (one of which is the fact that they filmed a scene from the 007 movie on the terrace overlooking the sea... and who cares, right????! 🤣). Not at all satisfied.
A wonderful experience . So peaceful on the lake. The sails up, gliding along.
Booked the 2 hour panoramic cruise. Weather forecast was not great and Silvia WhatsApp'd me the day before to change us to the morning cruise when the weather was a bit better. Was raining when we got to the harbour but stopped as soon as we set off and only started again once we had got off! Had a lovely cruise - able to sit outside on the deck. Silvia gave us lots of information in English, German and Italian, which made it more interesting. The highlight for me was when they turned the engine off and just used the sail - the peace and tranquility on this graceful sail ship in the beautiful surroundings was quite remarkable. 2 hours was enough for me but longer tours are available.
Simply wonderful! Very relaxing, and those who want can help with the sail hoisting. The tour guide speaks German very well. You also get many drinks, e.g., Aperol Spritz. A beautiful afternoon in the sunshine.
Sailing on a sailboat is an unforgettable experience. The lake is beautiful and very clean, and the entire crew is super friendly.
The cruise was delightful. A gentle stretch out from Malcesine along the lakeside then turning across to the far side of the lake to see the cliff and waterfalls. We then turned back across the lake down towards Malcesine from the north. It was an excellent way to view the Scaliger Castle and the paragliders coming down from Monte Baldo. A very peaceful trip in silence driven by the wind.
For me it is the most beautiful village on Lake Garda c is all mountain Monte Baldo with its rotating cable car Castle visitable village with medieval alleys to see absolutely
Small (too small) nice walk but a little disappointing for those who like to sail. Too bad that much of it was done to the engine (Lack of wind?). Friendly staff but very "commercial". Lack of shelter when the sun hits and too many passengers on board (No room to move during the ride).
