Interesting Tour - We really enjoyed learning about Dante and Verona during that time. Giovanni was a really knowledgeable and engaging guide. Would recommend this tour if you want to know a little about Dante.

Interesting and fun - Exciting route. A tour that has enriched us. We have known about Dante and Verona a story that you would hardly learn at school. I warmly thank the guide, Giovanni, lover and historian of Dante and the city that hosted him, knows how to tell and keep the attention high. I absolutely recommend this experience with him.

Wonderful tour of Verona and sites with Dante from a fun, knowledgable local - Giovanni’s knowledge of Dante was fantastic! He is a native of Verona and gave us a wonderful history of his city and the sites in Verona with Dante. His knowledge of the Divine Comedy and that Dante wrote it in Verona and his highlights of sites around Verona was very fun! His enthusiasm made it so fun! This was a highlight of our trip to Italy. It is a very fun guided tour.

Very nice - A beautiful experience with a historical evocation of the Dante period in Verona in glimpses of the city. Leo was very good at explaining many particular things about the city with particular focus on the Dante period but not only. We spent almost two hours without even realizing it.

Addictive!! - Super positive experience that allowed us to discover the city giving it a deeper meaning thanks to the knowledge and curiosities we were told! Interesting to know Dante s role within the city and his personality that hardly tell us from different points of view. The information arrives loaded with meaning but in a direct accessible way 🙂 recommended as a personal experience that definitely remains as added value! Congratulations
