About the trip
This Riviera Travel solo traveller holiday begins with a welcome dinner in Bardolino on the shores of Lake Garda, followed by a guided tour featuring the lakeside towns of Limone and Riva del Garda. Limone's mountains press close, and its once-boat-only access feels like a detail from another era. Next comes Venice, where a walking tour introduces St Mark’s Basilica’s mosaics and the Doge’s Palace, with time left to take in the canals or linger over a spritz at a local bacaro.
After a free day to stroll Bardolino’s lakeside or venture to nearby Sirmione, the tour heads west to Mantova. Surrounded by lakes that once shielded the city, Mantova remains deeply rooted in its Renaissance arts and architecture. The final full day is spent in Verona, where medieval streets hold the stories of Romeo and Juliet, and the Roman Arena still hosts performances. The mix of historic sites and leisurely days makes for a thoughtful week of northern Italian contrasts.
The tour concludes with a return to the airport after seven nights, with ample opportunities to appreciate the region’s blend of alpine and urban character.
