Sirmione before the crowds:
Early Morning Boat Tour & Roman Ruins

Experience Sirmione in the quiet of the early morning

This tour is designed for travelers who want to experience Sirmione before the crowds, in a quieter and more exclusive way. This experience is different from our Sirmione Peninsula Experience, focusion on the quiet atmoshpere of the early morning. 

We meet early in the morning in front of Sirmione’s medieval castle, when the peninsula is still peaceful and Lake Garda is at its calmest.

The experience begins with a private boat tour of about 30 minutes around the Sirmione peninsula. From the water you will enjoy the natural beauty of Lake Garda in the clear morning light, with gentle reflections and wide views of the surrounding landscape.

After the boat ride we continue with a guided walk through Sirmione’s historic center, still quiet and authentic in the early hours of the day. Walking through its streets before the arrival of day-trippers allows you to appreciate the village’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 combine archaeology, landscape and history, making this visit one of the highlights of the experience.
