The stops of the speedboat tour

This speedboat tour on Lake Garda kicks off from the harbor square of the Scaligero Castle in Sirmione. Right away, you’ll catch a glimpse of the magnificent villa once inhabited by the renowned opera singer, Maria Callas.

But no tour from Sirmione is complete without soaking in the beauty of the splendid peninsula. The journey then continues towards the tip of Sirmione, where the misleadingly named Grotte di Catullo awaits. Don’t let the name fool you – it’s not actual caves but an archaeological site where a Roman villa once stood.

The route then takes a turn as we head towards the western coast of Lake Garda. Prepare to be awestruck by the grandeur of Rocca di Manerba, surrounded by a natural reserve. You’ll have some time to dip into the cool lake waters before setting off to explore the charming town of Salò. Here, a one-hour stop is on the agenda, offering a splendid visit to the historic center.

After a stroll through the picturesque alleyways of Salò, hop back on the boat as we set sail once again towards new destinations!

Sailing towards the picturesque Gardone Riviera, get ready to admire the San Marco Tower. And because we want you to experience it all, let’s raise a toast to the day with a glass of Prosecco. The speedboat tour is almost drawing to a close, with just one crucial stop remaining.

Sirmione stands as the most renowned thermal destination on Lake Garda. This speedboat tour will treat you to a visit to the sulfurous spring, Boiola, the source of Sirmione’s thermal water. The journey wraps up by passing beneath the drawbridge, the unique pedestrian entrance to the peninsula.
