The Verona City Guides deal with the questions every visitor has: where to eat horse stew and Amarone risotto without paying the Piazza Bra premium, which churches and Roman sites deserve your time, where the evening goes after the aperitivo and how to reach Lake Garda or Venice by train. Each guide is a tight, opinionated list, and every place comes with why it is worth it, what to order or look for and a practical tip. The guide opens in your browser as soon as you have paid.

The six Verona guides
Food guide

Focaccia and pizza by weight, old osterie serving bigoli and pastissada de caval, wine-led kitchens and pastry shops, with the squares where you pay double flagged.
Things to do guide
23 places
Seven museums, five churches worth their small ticket, the Roman theatre and stone bridge, and the free viewpoint above the bend of the river.
Family guide
22 places
A funicular ride, castle walls to walk, a natural history museum, parks for running about, a thermal pool for a cold day and food children will actually eat.
Nightlife guide
24 places
Valpolicella by the glass in tiny cantine, cocktail bars in Veronetta, terraces facing the Arena and Ponte Pietra, live music and late food.
Day trips guide
20 places
Lake Garda, the Soave and Valpolicella wine country, a cliffside sanctuary, a natural stone arch, and Venice, Padua, Vicenza and Mantua by regional train.
Budget guide
27 places
Roman gates and bridges that cost nothing, one combined ticket for four churches, cheap focaccia and pasta lunches and the paid entry you can safely skip.

Three places from the guides
Trattoria al Pompiere
Vicolo Regina d’Ungheria, near Casa di Giulietta
Opened more than a century ago by a retired fireman, it is still the address for cured meats and cheese, sliced to order by its own salumiere. Share a board, then stay for the wine. From the food guide.
Castel San Pietro
Hill above Ponte Pietra
The finest view in Verona costs nothing: red roofs, the curve of the Adige and the Arena in the distance. Take the stairs from Ponte Pietra or the funicular, and the café at the top charges normal prices. From the budget guide.
Ponte Visconteo
Valeggio sul Mincio, about 40 min by car
A fortified 14th-century bridge across the Mincio that ties the castle hill to Borghetto, a hamlet of old mills. Before heading back, order the knotted local tortellini in a trattoria. From the day trips guide.
Play the trail, then follow the guide
World City Trail’s Verona scavenger hunt, outdoor escape game and audio tour lead you through the historic centre. When the game is over, the guides take you further: a glass of Valpolicella in a lane off Piazza delle Erbe, the climb to Castel San Pietro for sunset, a regional train to Vicenza or a wine afternoon by Lake Garda.
