Lake Garda, based in one hotel 7-days

Culture, wine, and lakes: a perfect mix; and you will experience the “dolce vita” without having to change your hotel. Welcome to a cycle tour which will stimulate both, your soul and your senses: high art and culture in the cities of Trento, Verona, Brescia, and Mantua – not only the Renaissance palaces of the city of Romeo and Juliet invite you to stay, also the cathedral square in Trento and the antique forum in Brescia will enchant you. Enjoy the atmosphere of the Piazza Sordello in Mantua. Lake Garda, a blue-green emerald, invites you to relax on its banks or to cool off in its refreshing waters. Or you relax while drinking a glass of wine, since in this region some of the most famous Italian wines are grown. Valpolicella, Lambrusco, Bardolino, Lugana…as we said…”dolce vita“.

Your accomodation: 4 star hotel

The hotel Lido International**** run by the Ferrari family is equipped with every comfort of a 4**** hotel. The historic port town of Desenzano is not far from the hotel, where many small squares, beautiful promenades, and winding alleys invite you to stay for a while. All of the spacious rooms have balconies/terrace from which one gets a direct view of the lake. The beautiful terraces, the lawn for sunbathing, the wonderful swimming pool and the private pebble beach make for a great stay in a relaxed atmosphere after your cycling tours.
