Places to visit on Lake Garda
Lake Garda is one of Italy and Europe’s most important tourist destinations, with breathtaking views and excellent food and wine. A day is enough to create an itinerary that satisfies every expectation: from lovers of tranquillity to sportsmen, from romantic walks to family outings.
Morning | Museo Nicolis and Peschiera del Garda
The day begins with the inevitable visit to the Museo Nicolis, a fascinating journey through the jewels of 20th-century mechanics, technology, and design. It is an enthralling experience to discover hundreds of vintage cars, motorbikes, bicycles, musical instruments, cameras, F1 flying machines, and countless objects of human ingenuity.
At the end of the visit, we move in a few minutes to Peschiera del Garda, a historic and picturesque military village. At the port, you can plan an excursion by ferry, or you can continue on foot along the 16th-century ramparts of the Venetian fortress, which is a Unesco World Heritage Site, passing through Piazza Ferdinando di Savoia, the Roman excavations and the panoramic Ponte dei Voltoni
Afternoon | Shopping in Bardolino or exciting excursions?
Why not dedicate the afternoon to shopping in picturesque Bardolino? Let yourself be captivated by its maze of colorful alleyways full of typical shops, bars, and restaurants for a rejuvenating break. For those looking for adrenaline-pumping excursions, the Ponte tibetano di Torri del Benaco is the ideal destination. Its famous steel structure is suspended 45 meters above Lake Garda and spans the path connecting Malcesine to Garda among olive groves and enchanting views.
Evening
Lake Garda becomes even more magical after sunset. Its shores come alive and the narrow streets inebriate you with the fragrances of typical dishes, to be savoured with a good glass of Amarone della Valpolicella, Soave, Lugana, Bardolino or Prosecco, to name but a few, the pride of Veneto food and wine.
Come to the Museo Nicolis and discover the uniqueness of our territory to be surprised by when planning a visit to our 10 collections.
