Explore the Centre of Verona by bike. Pick up your bike in Verona close to Ponte pietra, we'll set your phone with the app on the handlebar, and download the right route to follow. And you're ready to go!
Travel through the centuries to discover the city of Verona: Medieval, Roman and Longobard buildings, without forgetting the sites of Romeo and Juliet's love story.
With this tour you'll have the possibility to ride through the city center at your own speed. You can choose to stop and enter monuments (for example, don't miss a visit to the arena!) or quickly skip over content related to places you've already been to.
We recommend a minimum of 2 hours (if you're super fast!) to the whole day.
The experience is very flexible. It's perfect for families, couples, and small groups. The text in the app is in English.
