Maria led a wonderful tour and kept my teenagers captivated the entire time with her excellent story telling skills about the city sights. We could only spend a few hours in Verona but I feel like we saw the main sights and would like to return to Verona in the future for a longer stay. It was a lovely city with great history.

Francesco (Frank) did a great job of sharing lots of Verona history along with sites related to Romeo & Juliet. He mentioned some other things we might like to see after our tour, as well.

Arrived at 1.45pm for a 1 hour 15 min tour. We met Maria a lovely lady who was so passionate in her love for Verona. We stopped for several minutes at various places where she gave us a wonderful insight into the history of the arena and lots of other sites. There could have been a maximum of 10 but we were just a four. Another couple from Canada. We actually finished at 3.15. Would highly recommend this tour.

Our guide Maria was a fantastic storyteller. She’s energetic, animated, and lots of fun! We learned interesting facts about architecture of different centuries, and among other things. My family enjoyed the tour. I do, however, agree with some reviews that the name of the tour is misrepresenting as Romeo and Juliet is only a very small part of the tour at the end.
-
Our tour guide Maria was sweet and very knowledgeable about her city of Verona. We enjoyed strolling the streets of Verona, learning not just about Romeo and Juliet, but also about the history of the city. If you want to visit Juliet's house, we would recommend scheduling a visit right after the tour ends.
