In fair Verona where we lay our scene… Did you guess which play these classic lines are from" The answer, of course is William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Whilst Shakespeare never had the good fortune to visit Verona, we’re sure he would have loved it as much as we did. The town is a lot larger than we imagined and there are so many interesting sights. We travelled there with Classic Collection Holidays, the award-winning luxury tour operator. They cover a wide range of destinations and have been arranging holidays to Italy since 2003. Well in advance, they sent us our tickets and a Veneto region guidebook in a handy travel pouch. They also gave us contact details for their travel representative and a 24 hour emergency contact number, giving great peace of mind. We’re sharing our tips on what to see with 48 hours in Verona, to help you to get the most from your trip. Getting To Verona
The city is easily accessible with a large number of flights from European and international destinations. The airport itself is compact and it’s a short 20 minute taxi ride to the centre of town. We flew into Verona International Airport on arrival and when departing, took a train to Venice which was just over an hour away.
