    This trip was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Gabriella, was incredible. She was highly knowledgeable about the lake and answered all of our questions in detail. She even had the unique ability to make a long 1.5-hour drive feel like it only took 30 minutes by keeping us entertained. While we spent an adequate amount of time at each beautiful stop, the day would have been perfect if the ferry hadn't arrived 30 minutes late. Despite that minor delay, it was a fantastic experience!

    Our guide was a lovely mature lady I Thibk her name was Gabriella. She was very friendly, had a lovely way about her. The information she shared was second to none and made the trip so interesting as well as educational. She knew so much about lake Garda and spent so much time all around the lake sharing her knowledge
