Discovering the taverns and historic shops of Verona

An itinerary on foot through the most characteristic streets in the centre of Verona, discovering its historical shops: old delicatessens and pastry shops as well as real taverns, still frequented by the old people of the district, who enjoy a good glass of wine between wooden tables and stools at the counter.

A professional sommelier will guide you through the historical alleys of the city centre to let you experience the history, popular culture and passion for food, and especially, wine!

A plunge into the past, amidst anecdotes and memories narrated and experienced in the first person by your companion, who grew up right among those alleys and taverns. As you stroll pleasantly, you will pause in front of the main historic shops and their evocative signs, which already tell so much about their past and the traditions they preserve.

You will stop at two historic osterias where you will taste local wines, paired with cicchetti and typical products. You will learn about the characteristics of Valpolicella wines through the stories and tales that have made it famous, as well as those of other wines, such as Soave, Custoza, Bardolino, Lugana and Valtenesi Garda Classico.

Taverns are an integral part of the culture and tradition of this city, a reference point for entire neighbourhoods and districts: here it was once customary to eat, drink, play cards and get together. You can experience the same emotions, talking to local patrons and the innkeeper, thus immersing yourself in the authentic atmosphere of the past, with its slowed-down rhythms.

A tour designed for wine lovers, but also for all those who want to discover unusual views of Verona and enjoy an immersive experience in contact with the city's inhabitants.
