Simple to use and, above all, very cost-effective. I wanted to see a lot of things, and if I had paid for the tickets individually I would have spent a lot more money! I highly recommend buying it, especially if you're staying overnight in the city.

Guida simpatica preparata anche alle domande fuori tema. Nipotina spagnola capiva il suo parlare tranquillo e chiaro. Anche se non sa tanto italiano

Un'esperienza veramente bellissima... 2 ore di passeggiata per il centro storico di Verona per scoprirne anche gli angoli più nascosti! E grazie alla fantastica guida Benedetta per i preziosi consigli!

Was easy to get around and skipping the line always makes for a quicker entrance. We probably could have used for more attractions but were very happy with what we did. Thought funicular was discounted but wasn't but was only a few €.

It was easy to arrange and collect the tickets and everything was doable in the time wee needed. HOWEVER, the arena was closed and this was not readily made known whcih was a shame and may have affected our purchase (we would have rated it 'awesome' if it had more up to date information about what you were getting included in your ticket.
