Program

Guided tour of Soave: medieval walls and vineyards

Surrounded by vineyards and enclosed by sturdy battlemented walls, Soave is one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Veneto, dominated by the imposing Scaliger Castle. Accompanied by one of our licensed tour guides, you will explore a charming village where history, architecture, and winemaking tradition come together in an engaging experience suitable for all ages.

The tour begins at Porta Verona, at the city walls. From here, by bus, you reach the Scaliger Castle, built by the lords of Verona as a strategic defensive outpost between Verona and Vicenza. From its towers, you can admire the picturesque vineyards of the Soave DOC. A curious anecdote: the castle was part of an elaborate network of fortifications that allowed visual communication between Scaliger strongholds.

The visit continues on foot through the Historic Center, passing symbolic landmarks such as Piazza dell’Antenna, Palazzo Pretorile, Palazzo Cavalli, Palazzo Municipale, the evocative Porta Aquila, and the Palazzo del Capitanato, which highlight Soave’s civic history. The tour concludes at the Parish Church, home to a valuable painting by Giovanni Battista Moroni, a refined Renaissance portraitist.

The itinerary can end with a visit to a local winery, where the production process of the famous Soave wine is explained, followed by a tasting of wines and local products (approx. €16 per person), offering a moment of relaxation and conviviality.

An ideal route to discover Soave authentically, guided by our official professional guides, who make the visit engaging and interesting even for student groups.
