The meeting can be arranged depending on your location.
This tour includes a visit to the Villa Cordellina Lombardi in Montecchio Maggiore – 15 km from Vicenza. This villa was built in the Palladian style and decorated with frescoes by Tiepolo. In the surroundings of Vicenza, there are the ruins of castles from the Scaliger era – the rulers of Verona, who ruled Vicenza for many years in the 14th century. These are the so-called Romeo and Juliet castles in Montecchio Maggiore. It was here, near these castles, that the first modern Italian version of the story of Romeo and Juliet was written, which later inspired the great William Shakespeare to write the famous tragedy. And who among us does not know that “there is no tale sadder in the world than the tale of Romeo and Juliet…”
If desired, a Gambellara wine tasting can be organized during this tour.
