Explore Verona live with a local

Sessions run live, not as a recording: you join at a time in your own time zone, and the guide follows whatever you want to see or ask about. Centro storico is worth asking about: the walled old town within the river's bend, holding the Arena and Piazza delle Erbe.

Every date has a minimum group size: if it does not fill up, it is cancelled and you are refunded in full automatically. Small groups, real answers, no script.

What a live session shows

  • Arena di Verona A first-century Roman amphitheatre, one of the best preserved anywhere, still used for opera performances each summer.
  • Roman Theatre (Teatro Romano) A first-century theatre across the river, rediscovered only in the nineteenth century and still hosting summer performances.
  • Porta Borsari A Roman gate that once marked the main entrance to the city along the old Roman road.
  • Castelvecchio A fourteenth-century fortress built by the Scaliger family, now a museum, connected to the river by a battlemented bridge.
  • Ponte Scaligero The fortified bridge beside Castelvecchio, rebuilt stone by stone after being destroyed in the Second World War.
  • Ponte Pietra Verona's oldest bridge, part Roman, rebuilt using original stones recovered from the river after being blown up in 1945.
  • Duomo di Verona The city's cathedral, built over the sites of two earlier churches with a Romanesque exterior and Renaissance additions inside.
  • Casa di Romeo A medieval house linked by tradition rather than proof to Shakespeare's Romeo.
