The UNESCO city of Verona and Sirmione on Lake Garda in one day, with pickup at Piazzale Roma and one driver who waits at both stops.
Your driver meets you for pickup at Piazzale Roma and drives west to Verona, then on to Sirmione on Lake Garda, and back to Piazzale Roma the same day.
The route. From Piazzale Roma to Verona is almost all motorway on the A4: about 120 km, roughly 1h 25m. Sirmione is about 40 km further, roughly 40 min, and the drive back to Venice is about 155 km, roughly 1h 45m. The whole loop is about 315 km, roughly 3h 50m of driving.
The places. Verona has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2000: founded in the 1st century B.C., it flourished under the Scaliger family and as part of the Republic of Venice. Sirmione, in the Province of Brescia, has the Scaligero Castle and the Grottoes of Catullus, the ruins of a Roman villa.
The pace. The driver waits at both stops, so how you split the day between Verona and the lake is up to you. The historic centre of Sirmione is a restricted traffic zone (ZTL), so the car stops outside the old town and you walk in.
Your driver meets you at Piazzale Roma, the pickup and drop-off point for the day.
