SPECTACULAR LAKE<br />
GARDA & VENICE<br />
Lake Garda is one of the most stunning locations in Europe! The lake covers<br />
three regions and has a circumference of almost 160km encompassing<br />
colourful and diverse lakeside towns, each offering a new experience to<br />
visitors. Away from the lake, the area offers a handful of historic cities,<br />
towering mountains and Renaissance treasures to explore. The hospitality<br />
is legendary and the food and wine are a treat for all. Our base is in<br />
the lakeside resort of Bardolino, well known for its excellent red wines.<br />
It is a pleasure to stroll around, offering plenty of outdoor living and<br />
shopping for visitors, with beautiful lake views. Walks along the lakeside<br />
promenade are especially popular. We will take a full-day tour around<br />
the lake, enjoying the alpine scenery in the north and the Mediterranean<br />
atmosphere in the south, and visit some of the lovely lakeside resorts.<br />
Another highlight will be a memorable day trip to Venice. More than a<br />
city, Venice is a living museum with a rich history evident in every square.<br />
Explore the intricate labyrinth of canals and bridges, elegant piazzas<br />
and abundance of beautiful churches. The two focal points of the city<br />
are the Rialto Bridge and St Mark’s Square. Here the imposing Doge’s<br />
Palace, the exotic St Mark’s Basilica and the Campanile Bell Tower never<br />
fail to impress.<br />
