Verona, Italy’s alluring blend of history and romance, sets the stage for Tour Escape Verona, a fresh take on urban adventure offered by Free Walking Tour Italia. Starting at the iconic Piazza Brà, smack in the heart of Verona’s historic center, this experience transforms a stroll through the city into an interactive escape game.
