10 wonderful Things to Do in Verona and sorroundigs, 10 must do experiences when visiting this fascinating city:

Verona, a city steeped in history and romance, offers a rich blend of medieval architecture, cultural landmarks, charming borrows and streets. Here are 10 must do experiences when visiting this fascinating  city.

1. Visit the Arena. One of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters in Italy, the Arena is the symbol of Verona's ancient past. Still in use today for opera performances and concerts, the Arena is an architectural marvel. It's also the perfect place to imagine the grandeur of ancient Roman games.

2. Explore Piazza delle Erbe
   Piazza delle Erbe is the heart of Verona's historic center, surrounded by beautiful medieval buildings, frescoed houses and cafes. This lively square was once the Roman forum, and today it is a hub for both locals and tourists. The nearby Torre dei Lamberti offers incredible views of the city. 

3. Savour sunset at Castel San Pietro.  For an incredible panorama of Verona, you absolutely must climb up to Castel San Pietro for the early evening golden hour — it will be love at first sight. At the top of the hill, reachable by funicular or on foot via a scenic staircase, the terrace offers unforgettable views of Verona and the Adige River.

4. A riverside walk from the Scaligero Bridge to the Ponte Pietra.
   Castelvecchio Bridge, the longest in Verona, marks the point where the river greets the city and slips between its ancient walls. Take a stroll along the riverbanks: from the Scaligero Bridge to the majestic Ponte della Vittoria, then onward to Ponte Garibaldi. Walking along the Adige, you'll see across the river the Cathedral complex and the Bishop's Palace, while the Renaissance dome of San Giorgio in Braida stands luminous on the left bank. Beyond it, Castel San Pietro hill and the Ponte Pietra appear in all their beauty. Near this ancient bridge, just before the Adige flows into the plain, the river seems to take its leave of Verona after shaping its unique embrace.

5. Exploring the Cathedral complex.
   Verona's Cathedral is a staple of the city's spiritual and artistic heritage, with sixteen centuries of history layered beneath its floors. The peaceful Canonici cloister invites visitors to slow down, while the extraordinary Chapter Library — home to precious handwritten manuscripts — feels like stepping into a sanctuary of culture.

6. A visit to Giusti Garden and Giusti Palace.
   Giusti Garden is a green oasis in the heart of Verona, where nature mirrors the elegance of classical architecture. For a quiet sense of timeless beauty complete your visit with the adjoining Giusti Palace, decorated with 18th-century frescoes and early 20th-century furnishings.

7. A night at the opera.
   A night at opera in the roman Arena is an unforgettable experience. Whether the sets are boldly modern or steeped in tradition, they create the perfect stage for Italian opera's passions. Book your seats in the Arena and let the music carry you away beneath a sky full of stars.

8. A day among the vineyards.
   Just outside Verona lie some of Italy's most celebrated wine regions: Valpolicella, Soave, and Lugana — places where tradition meets innovation. A walk among the vines, a tour of a family-run winery, and a tasting of Verona's great wines offer a true taste of this territory.

9. A getaway to Lake Garda.
   Italy's largest lake enchants visitors with its holiday spirit, lush Mediterranean vegetation, sapphire-blue waters, and a wonderful selection of restaurants and gelato shops. It's the perfect escape for a relaxing day.

10. A visit to the Nicolis Museum in Villafranca di Verona.
    The Nicolis Museum, once a second home to Luciano Nicolis — its founder and a passionate collector of cars, motorcycles, and bicycles — is a journey through Italian design and the history of means of transport. The three-story building unfolds curiosities, interesting stories and unique pieces.
