Sirmione: Walking Tour + Boat Tour at Lake Garda Boat Tours

Sirmione Walking and Boat Tour

This combined land and water tour gives you the complete Sirmione experience in just two hours. Start with a peaceful boat cruise along Lake Garda's crystal-clear waters, where your licensed guide points out the Roman ruins of the Grotte di Catullo and the famous thermal springs that have drawn visitors for centuries. The boat ride offers perfect photo opportunities and panoramic views of the peninsula that you simply cannot get from land.

Back on shore, your guided walking tour takes you through Sirmione's narrow cobblestone streets to discover the medieval Scaligero Castle and the charming town centre. Your guide shares stories of Roman emperors and medieval legends while you explore historic buildings, local boutiques, and hidden corners that most visitors miss. The tour concludes with free time to visit museums, enjoy gelato, or simply relax by the lake at your own pace.
