Verona holidays offer a romantic mix of history, elegance and Shakespearean charm. Famous as the setting for Romeo and Juliet, this northern Italian city is more than just a love story — it’s a cultural gem with ancient roots and Renaissance flair.
Marvel at the 1st-century Roman amphitheatre, which still hosts open-air opera under the stars. Stroll through pretty piazzas, cross stone bridges over the Adige River, and explore medieval churches, frescoed palaces and boutique-lined lanes.
Verona’s food and wine scene is exceptional, with flavours drawn from the Veneto countryside and nearby Lake Garda.
Whether you’re here for the history, the art or just to stand on Juliet’s balcony, Verona holidays promise timeless charm and unforgettable moments.
