Lake Garda & Around
All Aboard!
Lake Garda has an unusual meteorological quirk - the winds that blow over its surface are
almost as regular as clockwork. Their predictability has ensured Riva, Torbole, Gargnano
and Malcesine are magnets for windsurfers and sailors.
Gourmet Garda
A fleet of ferries enables mini voyages of discovery in a landscape rich in food and wine.
To the south, Valtenesi olive groves produce some of Italy's finest oils, while the vineyards
of Valpolicella, Bardolino and Soave wow the palates with unusual regional wines.
Arty Itineraries
Trace a trail from Roman Verona to medieval Mantua for an eyeful of Renaissance art and
architecture, and a marathon tour of Mantegna's masterly frescoes.
