Verona, Opera and Art: guided tour of the historic center

Experiencing Opera at the Verona Arena is truly unique. From June 12 to September 12, 2026, the city hosts the 103rd edition of the Arena Opera Festival, featuring a prestigious program that includes great operatic masterpieces as well as concerts and special musical events.

To enrich your stay in Verona, we offer guided tours of the historic center, led by licensed tour guides, combining the discovery of the city’s main landmarks with fascinating stories and curiosities connected to music and opera in Verona.

The itinerary includes Verona’s iconic sites: Piazza Bra and the Arena, the cultural heart of the city, Piazza delle Erbe, the ancient Roman forum, Piazza dei Signori, the Scaliger Tombs, Castelvecchio, and the evocative Scaligero Bridge. Along the way, the guide will share anecdotes about the origins of the Arena Festival, legendary singers and conductors who performed here, and Verona’s deep-rooted musical tradition dating back to Roman times.

A perfect opportunity to discover a city where architecture, theater, music, and beauty have coexisted for centuries—either as a prelude to your evening at the Arena or as a complement to the opera experience.
