Trento
Off the beaten path of mass tourism, Trento is a quaint city full of historic charm. With its unique architectural mix of Medieval and Renaissance buildings, it is a true hidden gem. Situated in a wide glacial valley with a backdrop of beautiful mountain peaks, Trento is influenced by Germanic architecture as it was part of Austria until 1919. Trento is famous for its Trentodoc, one of the most precious spumante sparkling wines in Italy.
Verona
The city of lovers, opera, and romance in northern Italy, Verona is renowned as the setting for “Romeo & Juliet” and for its roman era Arena. Because of the value and importance of its many historical buildings, Verona has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A guided visit of Verona is included in the program on Friday, June 23. We will travel from Trento to Verona via private bus and visit: Piazza delle Erbe and the historic center of Verona, the Arena, Juliet’s house, and more.
Venice
Known as the most romantic city in Italy, Venice is also one of the most iconic and visited places in the world. Despite the mass tourism, it is still possible to venture around the city and find serene corners, tucked away from the main attractions to enjoy the essence of its canals. Venice can be easily reached by train from Trento. Fast trains connect the two cities in around 2 hours. From Verona, Venice can be reached in one hour by train.
Dolomites
The Dolomites are mountain range in the Italian Alps in northeastern Italy, stretching across the regions of Trentino-Alto Adige, Veneto, and Friuli Venezia Giulia. In 2009, these mountains were listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The scenery is dramatic, and visiting is recommended in the summer especially for hikers. We also recommend renting a car to visit the area. Distance from Trento is about one to two hours depending on the area you plan to visit.
