Spring is here and Garda Tours officially opens a new season of boat tours to the most beautiful destinations on Lake Garda. On April 1, Garda Island opens its doors to the public, and we thought we'd celebrate with a group tour.

Garda Island: An Enchanting Gem for the Whole Family  

You don't need to go far to admire places that look like something out of a storybook. Lake Garda is full of islands, natural parks, Caribbean beaches, castles and ancient villas that deserve to be on your list of places to visit this year! Garda Island is definitely one of them. 

April is the perfect month for a family tour of this wonderful little island on the lake. On April 1, the Cavazza family that lives there opens the island to guided tours of the Venetian neo-Gothic-style villa built in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The villa is surrounded by a beautiful park that encloses an Italian garden, an English garden, and a forest kept deliberately wild. 

A Group Boat Tour with Visit and Tasting

The Garda Island tour with sightseeing and tasting will depart from the port of Sirmione (Tuesday and Thursday) Lazise, Bardolino (Sunday), Gargnano (Wednesday) and Desenzano (Wednesday and Sunday). The tour includes a two-hour stop on the island to give you a chance to visit part of the historic villa and the beautiful surrounding park. 

For the lucky ones, the countess herself will accompany the tour, telling the compelling story of the Island and the families who, over the centuries, have taken care of it. Today that care is recognizable in the villa's perfect profile and the lushness of the gardens, which are home to such a variety of plant species as to be considered on par with a botanical garden. 

After the guided tour, you will enjoy welcome drinks on the Villa's beautiful panoramic terrace. At the end of the island stop, we will set sail again to Bardolino, Lazise, Gargnano and Desenzano, where we will dock at the port with a goodbye until the next boat tour!

What customers say
Bellissima esperienza che spero di avere l'occasione di ripetere. Ho partecipato ad un giro del lago + aperitivo con 13 amiche per un addio al nubilato. Franco, il nostro capitano, si è premurato che tutto fosse perfetto! E' davvero un'esperienza che consiglio!
Bnix1984, Addio al Nubilato
Abbiamo fatto il tour della penisola di Sirmione al tramonto con aperitivo. La barca era spaziosa, pulita e abbiamo avuto modo di mettere la musica di nostro gusto. Il capitano Franco è stato cordiale, disponibile e professionale. Esperienza consigliata almeno una volta nella vita!!
Matteo, Aperitivo
Bellissima esperienza. Il panorama dalla barca è Molto suggestivo ed accompagnato dalle spiegazioni di Carlo, lo skipper, molto disponibile. Personale simpatico e cordiale, abbiamo apprezzato particolarmente la degustazione di vini. Secondo noi da rifare con amici
