Tour highlights: Verona’s must-sees + hilltop views

The itinerary is designed to combine Verona’s iconic landmarks with a few corners many visitors miss.
Expect a mix of Roman-era sites, lively piazzas, riverside cycling, and a scenic climb for panoramic city views.

• Arco dei Gavi – a Roman-era gate and the stated starting area for the route
• Porta Borsari – one of the historic entry points into the old town
• Piazza Erbe – a classic Verona square with strong “city life” energy
• Juliet’s Balcony – the famous Romeo & Juliet-linked stop
• Torricelle hills + Castel San Pietro – the tour’s signature viewpoint stop
• Ponte Pietra – described as Verona’s most ancient bridge, near the riverside lanes
• Sottoriva – cobblestones, shade, and a more local feel
• San Fermo – gothic church views along the ride
• Piazza Bra + Arena di Verona – the grand finale in the city’s biggest square
• San Zeno + Basilica di San Zeno – a calmer district and one of Verona’s key churches
