Spring on Lake Garda and surroundings
A group trip full of colours, scents, food & wine between Verona and Sirmione
From Friday 24th March to Saturday 1st April 2023
From Wednesday 5th April to Tuesday 11th April 2023
Springtime is nature at its best. Admiring the reawakening of the typically Mediterranean vegetation of Lake Garda combined with the scents of blossoming fruit trees is a unique experience. It is the perfect time to visit the Sigurtà Garden Park in Valeggio sul Mincio to admire the famous tulip blooming season, and the vast countryside at the foot of the Lessinia Mountains for the cherry blossoms, whose white colours provide a beautiful contrast against the blue sky and the green meadows. Furthermore, we will visit an oil mill in the Val d'Illasi where you can taste typical local products, and afterwards we will visit the Pesciaria excavations and the important Bolca fossil museum. To end the day on a high note, there will be a tasting of local wines at a winery. On the next day, we will head to Borghetto, listed among the most beautiful villages in Italy, and the peninsula of Sirmione, a real gem on Lake Garda.
