Surprisingly well connected, Verona and Venice make a wonderful Italian holiday - only one hour and ten minutes apart by train. Although arriving into Venice is never a chore, it is made all the more special when you are greeted by a private water taxi transfer to whisk you off to your hotel, past the throngs of other visitors and over the lagoon. In May, during Venice’s high season, the perfect hotel in a central location is essential base from which to navigate the city – perhaps following a Kirker walking tour accompanied by one of our experienced local guides. In winter, when the city is less busy, the view across the Lagoon is very atmospheric and makes a winter short break that much more special. At any time of year Verona is a wonderfully charming city, with an authentic Italian feel as you walk through the cobbled streets down towards the Arena. Enjoy an Opera performance or two over the summer months or take in the city at your own pace in the quieter months.
Our suggested itinerary includes four nights in Venice and four nights in Verona – but for those with more time available, why not continue your holiday with a relaxing stay on Lake Garda, or make your arrival into Venice more luxurious with a journey on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express from London: ask us for a tailor-made quotation.

The stunning 'Palazzo Ducale' was the residence of the Doges and is the richest symbol of Venetian cultural, military, political and economic history.

If you have visited the Doge's Palace before, we would be delighted to provide tickets to the Guggenheim or Accademia Galleries instead.
Small, luxurious and located almost next door to the Danieli, the Londra is managed by our great friend Alain Bullo and is now a member of Relais & Châteaux. It is one of our favourite hotels in Venice and Kirker clients have always been especially well looked after.
This restored 14th Century palace opened in 2012 and is located a short walk from the Arena and close to the main shopping street, Via Mazzini.

May is a wonderful time to visit Italy, the weather is starting to warm but is still pleasant to stroll around during the day and the sun seems to be shining everywhere. I had the pleasure of visiting two beautiful Italian cities during this month and it was a memorable trip. Flying into Verona from London Gatwick in British Airways Club Europe (business class) was a fantastic experience, I…
