Sirmione before the crowds

early morning private boat, Roman ruins and guided walk

This tour is designed for travelers who want to experience Sirmione before the crowds, in a quieter and more exclusive way. 

 

We meet early in the morning in front of Sirmione’s medieval castle, when the peninsula is still peaceful and the lake is at its calmest. The experience begins with a private boat tour of about 30 minutes around Sirmione’s peninsula. From the water, you will enjoy the natural beauty of Lake Garda at its best: clear morning light, gentle reflections and the elegant profile of the peninsula. After the boat ride, we continue with a guided walking tour through the historic center, still quiet and authentic in the early hours. Walking through its streets before the arrival of day-trippers allows you to truly appreciate Sirmione’s atmosphere, history and hidden corners. The tour then leads to the Grotte di Catullo, the largest Roman villa ruins in northern Italy. Set in a spectacular natural position overlooking Lake Garda, these iconic remains offer a unique combination of archaeology, landscape and history, making this visit one of the highlights of the experience.

​

Our exclusive experience of Sirmione's peninsula lasts approximately 3 hours and is available with a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 12 participants. For larger groups or families travelling with children under six, please contact us for further details and tailored arrangements.
