Join us on this full-day tour (about 8 hours), discovering one of the lesser-known wine regions of Verona, the morainic hills of southern Lake Garda. This area is not very touristy, making this the perfect tour if you want to spend a day in a relaxed atmosphere, featuring good wine and centuries-old traditions. Departure is from the Pagus store at 9:00 AM, and first, we will reach Custoza, where you will visit a local winery and taste their wines. The most famous wine here is Custoza DOC, a blend of local white grapes, perfect for lovers of white wines and to tackle the hot summer days. We will then reach Borghetto, a picturesque village overlooking the Mincio River. You will be able to walk through its streets and over the medieval bridge, appreciating charming glimpses that you will not be able to resist capturing in a photograph. You will hear the story of the village and the legend that gives rise to the so-called "Lovers' Knot", the local tortellini for which Valeggio is famous. In Borghetto, we will also stop for lunch at a local restaurant, where you can savor the flavors of Italian tradition (Valeggio tortellini included!), paired, of course, with more excellent wine! In the early afternoon, we will bid farewell to the hills of Custoza and Borghetto, and return to the city.
