Luxury holidays in Verona

When to go

Late summer is sizzling hot; visit in spring or autumn if you want to explore the city on foot without wilting. It’s also romantic here in winter.

Getting there

• Planes

  Valerio Catullo airport is 5km southwest of Verona, with plenty of domestic flights, as well as European stop-offs such as London, Manchester, Barcelona and Amsterdam (www.aeroportoverona.it). There’s also Brescia’s airport, 40 minutes away from Verona by car (www.aeroportobrescia.it).

• Trains

  Verona Porta Nuova is the city’s main station, close to the city centre in the square of Piazzale 25 Aprile (www.trenitalia.com).

• Automobiles

  Only bring a car if you want to explore the lakes; driving in the city itself is a pain; walking around it is a pleasure.
