PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

VISITS:

• Verona — One of Italy’s most enchanting cities, made famous by Shakespeare as the setting of Romeo and Juliet. At its heart stands the Arena di Verona, the Roman arena, dated around 41–42 AD, decades before the Colosseum in Rome. Extraordinarily well preserved, each summer it hosts the world-renowned Arena di Verona Opera Festival.
• Isola del Garda — the lake’s largest island, and arguably its most enchanting secret. Home to a breathtaking neo-Gothic Venetian villa surrounded by terraced Italian gardens, this island feels like something straight out of a fairy tale.
• Sirmione — A picturesque lakeside town on Lake Garda, known for its 13th-century Scaliger Castle, Roman ruins, and charming narrow stone streets.
• Villa Arvedi & the Veneto Countryside — One of the most majestic country estates in the Veneto region, dating back to the  15th century.
• A traditional Malga – a mountain farmhouse perched high above Lake Garda with sweeping lake and Dolomite panoramic views.

EXPERIENCES:

• Make handmade nodi d’amore pasta with local home cooks and share the meal together
• Discover how rice is grown, harvested, and processed at the oldest and most celebrated rice mill in the Veneto region.
• Taste exceptional local wines at Cantina Ottella Winery, 
• Sample the distinctive olive oil produced in this unique microclimate
