Arena Di Verona
Really pretty and cool to see. It is essentially an amphitheater in the Roman style.
Medieval Castelvecchio
Really cool castle with museums all around and good views - good activity to kill time and was pretty interesting to explore (some fun paintings too)
Italian Risotto & Pasta Making Class
Such a fun activity to do in this quaint town! If you find yourself here for the entire day it is a great way to combine touring with lunch!
Juliet's House
Not amazing but you need to check the box on this one when in Verona.
Basilica of Santa Anastasia
If you have time to kill go inside otherwise kind of similar to other Basilica’s in Europe
Piazzale Castel San Pietro
You have to walk up at sunset (and make sure to time it right) it was absolutely stunning and an amazing view
