Love Aurora in Verona
Sooooo cool. Aurora is amazing. We were a small group in fact just our family and she waited for us because there was a train delay coming in from Florence We were a few minutes late. She kept in touch with me via WhatsApp as I was letting her know what was happening. We arrived and we started off the tour. She talked a lot about Verona and about the wine drinking and then we went to a really nice place for the first job which was breakfast and then we had a second stop which was prosciutto and cheese and a very delicious white wine. We were too full for lunch honestly but we went to a restaurant. I had the lasagna. I just loved the tour because Verona is one of my favorite cities and walking with Aurora I learned so much. Excellent talk guy. Verona is great.

Food, Wine and Romeo & Juliet
It was a wonderful walking tour that included the story of Romeo and Juliet. Laura was wonderful in telling the story and the history of Verona and her partner Melissa was great as well!!! We had wonderful food and wine (wine was local to Verona)so it gave us a little bit of everything all in one tour. We throughly enjoyed it.

Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Verona.
How much does Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story cost?
+
Prices start at $79 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Verona usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Verona is not rushed.
Is Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 25 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Verona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story?
+

Is Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Verona Food Tour: 10+ flavours, Local Wine, Romeo & Juliet story?
+
Around 9 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Verona can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Verona and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

+

+

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Verona?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Verona?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
