Sirmione away from the Crowds Boat Cruise Guided Walk and a Drink
Description
Sirmione is beautiful — and yes, it can get busy. We created this experience to slow things down, step away from the crowds and enjoy the peninsula the way locals do — with a boat ride, a relaxed walk, and a drink at the end. We’ll cruise around the peninsula by boat, then explore quieter corners and side streets most visitors miss. Along the way, you’ll hear stories, history and little local details — nothing academic, just the kind of things that make places feel alive. The pace is easy, the group is small, and there’s time to look around, ask questions, take photos — or simply enjoy the lake without rushing. The drink at the end will be nice for a chat and for asking question and best tips about the area

I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Chiara was warm and interesting. The walk around Sirmione was relaxed and felt like a really great conversation. I enjoyed learning about the history of Sirmione and insights to the region. Thanks for the flexibility to adjust the tour based on my interests and the heat. Thanks also for contributing to making my time in Lake Garda so memorable - I now want to return!
This is the perfect tour of Sirmione! We started with a boat ride around the peninsula and did a walking tour of the old town after. Our guide Chiara was fabulous. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, the history and shared lots of tips about local restaurants and things to do in the area. The tour concluded with a stop at a cafe for drinks and more conversation. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a comprehensive overview of Sirmione!
What a special day we had with Chiara. She is so knowledgeable and friendly. We learned so much about the Castle, Sirmione and the area. With Chiara being born and still living in the area she shared so much interesting information about all things. She also went above and beyond by providing us information about the area before our arrival
What an amazing guide. Informative, friendly and very helpful. And with an amazing boat ride as part of the trip. Made our trip extra special.

A panoramic boat ride ensured gantastic views from all angles and all the time Davide was the PERFECT GUIDE AND HOST
This was a great way to see Sirmione. Chiara is local to the lake area and is able to offer historical information as well as details about the village to aid in your exploration. Seeing the village from the water is unique and beautiful, and a nice way to take a break from the crowds for a bit of time.
Chiara was brilliant guide. Insights into the history of the area as well as what we were actually seeing. The boat trip gave an alternative perspective of Sirmione. The last few minutes of the boat trip were spectacular. Overall a friendly, informative tour by a terrific guide. Totally reccomended
Personal touch makes all the difference. Chiara is knowledgeable, friendly and easy to chat with. The boat trip to start with was great, seeing the town from the water gave a different perspective, then following with local information and guidance from Chiara. Would highly recommend.
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip around Sirmione with our guide Davide. He is so knowledgeable about the history of the area and about what is happening there at the present time. He’s really easy to talk to, you can ask him anything and he will chat to you about it. Our tour started with a boat trip around the peninsula, with Davide and the driver giving us a commentary on what we were seeing. After that he took us round the back streets of Sirmione, well away from the crowds that were in the main streets of Sirmione and showed us so many interesting places, while describing the history of Sirmione and how it has developed into what it is now. So interesting. At the end of our walk, he took us into a typical Italian small restaurant for a glass of wine and a snack, before leaving us to finish or meal. Suck a lovely two hours with him and definitely value for money.
We had a great tour of Sirmione and learned interesting facts about its history, churches, crops, etc. we enjoyed the boat ride and the drink/appetizers at the end!
Thanks so much Sarah!!
