The high-speed train eases out of Venice with a soft hum; an hour later you step onto Verona's platform and the city's layered past meets you in the air — river-washed stone, the echo of an ancient arena, vendors calling from a sunlit piazza. Your private guide leads a three-hour walk through Roman arches, narrow medieval lanes and the bright market of Piazza delle Erbe, pointing out details many visitors miss: the arena’s acoustics, carved capitals on a forgotten church, and a view of the Adige slicing the city in two.

Arrive Early or Late
Juliet’s balcony and the Arena are busiest midday; schedule your walking portion for morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds.
Cobblestones Underfoot
Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes—the historic center’s uneven stones demand good grip and ankle support.
Keep Hydrated
Bring a refillable bottle — water fountains (nasoni) and cafes are available but carrying water saves time.
Check Access Fees
If you start in Venice, confirm the current Venice access/visitor fee dates and exemptions before travel.
Comfortable walking shoes
Supportive shoes are crucial for cobbled streets and occasional stairs.

Keeps you hydrated during the guided walk and reduces plastic waste.
