Amusement park
Water & Amusement Parks
Theme Parks
Gardaland Resort is a renowned amusement park located in Castelnuovo del Garda, Verona. Established in 1975, it has gained international recognition and is considered one of the top amusement parks globally. Situated on the shores of Lake Garda, it spans 46 hectares and features a wide array of attractions and themed areas suitable for all ages. The park offers numerous shows daily, themed restaurants, and beautifully landscaped surroundings.
Gardaland Park offers an intense and unforgettable experience for the entire family. As evidenced by the fact that two days were not enough to do everything, the park's enormous size guarantees an endless variety of attractions and activities. ​Convenience and accessibility are the name of the game at Gardaland. Entry is exceptionally fast, and within the park, you’ll find food stalls and restaurants on every corner, so there’s always a place to rest and eat. Additionally, the park is technologically advanced and offers two useful apps: one for easy navigation inside the park and another for downloading photos taken on the rides, which adds to the experience and provides fun souvenirs. ​The variety of attractions is indeed for all ages, but it's important to note that most rides are suited for those 100 cm (3.3 ft) tall and above. Therefore, it's wise to plan accordingly. Even so, the park provides a diverse experience for both parents and children. As mentioned, the most worthwhile option is to purchase tickets directly at the box office. ​In conclusion, Gardaland is a highly recommended destination. It's a very enjoyable experience for parents and children, and it is highly recommended to take two days if possible, to have enough time to enjoy everything this vast place has to offer.

We had an absolutely fabulous day at the Gardaland! You feel like in a fairytale, and all the roller coasters are very exciting! 😍 I recommend going on a (rainy) weekday, so the queues are shorter and you manage to see everything. Feel free to skip the Jumanji Adventure ride though, it’s not quite worth a 40+ minute wait.
Anastasiia K — Google review
Another amazing amusememt park for kids and older as well. Rides get pretty busy with the nice weather, like in every resort. I wish there was a better overview what each ride offers - we waited 90 minutes for Jumanji adventure, which was absolutely no advanture plus it was all in Italian. Other than that, only 4 rides required height over 140, few over 130. Make sure to check these requirements before going. Also, buying tickets outside od the official venue office is cheaper so look for those selling points in the city.

We visited Gardaland on a Wednesday and had an amazing time! 🎢 The waiting time for each ride was less than 15 minutes, which made the whole experience super smooth. The official app showing live queue times was very helpful — it helped us plan our route efficiently and enjoy more rides. The park is clean, beautifully themed, and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and organized, and there were plenty of food options and rest areas. Both the kids and adults had a blast — from the thrilling roller coasters to the fun family attractions. Highly recommend visiting on a weekday if possible — short queues, great atmosphere, and so much fun! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic for kiddies as there is a great balance of calmer rides with ease of motion while still holding very good production value. The adult rides too are equally fantastic. I hold the overall experience below Europa park however and wouldn't go too far out of my way to visit it.

We had such a fantastic time at Gardaland! The park is full of magic, excitement, and plenty of things to do for both kids and adults.There are so many attractions from thrilling rides to fun games that kept us entertained all day. The decorations and themed areas are beautiful and immersive, making it feel like stepping into another world.The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was well-organized despite the crowds. It’s also worth mentioning that the park is very clean and well-maintained, and there are plenty of places to relax, grab food, or cool down.If you’re visiting Italy with kids, Gardaland is absolutely worth it. We left with big smiles and a new fluffy friend. we recommend

I am sure that a family would love this place...my wife and stayed at the Gardaland hotel, and rode the bus to the park in the morning (bus runs every 16 minutes) We love roller coasters and these did not disappoint. The atmosphere is very family friendly and the park is very well cared for (it's clean!) over all a great experience.

The Porta Brescia fortress is a historic stone gatehouse located within the city's walls, serving as an entrance to the old town. Alongside it stands a war monument exhibiting cannons and weaponry. It's a fascinating place to visit, where one can witness historical artifacts rather than glorifying wars that have ravaged the world. The location offers excellent food, service at fair prices, making it worth spending money on.
Stunning town with amazing bars and restaurants and lots of shopping. Well worth the visit the beautiful gem of a place.

Porta Brescia (1551–1558) is one of the main entrances to the fortress, steeped in history and surrounded by a moat of shimmering water. Lined with vibrant flowers year-round, the approach is as charming as it is imposing. It’s awe-inspiring to stand before it and imagine the sheer thickness and strength of the fortress walls, built to withstand centuries of conflict and time.

This review is from 3 years ago at the time I wrote this (reason -made a new google review focused account): Very beautiful place. However a common issue was the honesty and people: -all the stores sold the same clothes with different pricing -at the parking there was a guy ''acting like he worked there'' and wanted money from you for showing you a parking spot. Nice spot, not so nice people.

Visited Porta Verona recently and despite the crowd, its beauty truly stood out. The impressive stone archway, steeped in history, offers a grand entrance into the heart of the city. Even with the busy atmosphere, the architectural elegance and timeless character of the gate made it worth the visit. It’s a great spot for photos and a perfect starting point for exploring the surrounding streets. A must-see for history lovers and anyone who appreciates classic Italian design.

Ports Verona at Lake Garda is a charming haven where the serene beauty of the lake meets the elegance of Italian architecture. Picture cobblestone streets lined with quaint shops and vibrant cafes, where every corner invites you to pause and savor the moment. The harbor, a mosaic of boats bobbing gently in the water, frames a backdrop of rolling hills and lush landscapes. As the sun sets, casting a golden glow over the lake, the area transforms into a picturesque canvas of reflection and tranquility. Here, the gentle lapping of waves and the soft murmur of conversation blend seamlessly, creating an atmosphere that feels both timeless and intimate.

The first day we came here it was closed and we are so glad we came back again. The food and the service is excellent. Chef Fabio came to take our orders himself. Very friendly good looking guy! High quality olive oil, generous serving of truffles on the pasta, wonderfully seared tuna, one of the best sea bass I ever had and such exquisite desserts - pistachio creme brûlée and “the egg” which you cut open and it looks like a real egg with egg white and yolk. Note: the pasta and the tuna are half portions as they were very kind to split them into 2 for me and my wife.

Apparently they were fully booked but the place was empty. But I would advise anyone to avoid this place. As I can see from your fast reply to my comments you really have a lot of time on your hands. Maybe you should concerned yourself with running a good restaurant which this is not. With a owner that likes to reply to ever bad review he get it's not a good look pal get a life. Well since this pathetic little human like to keep replying, let's state the facts: my wife & child and I visted this place. We were the 1st people there, The waitress was going to seat my wife and child until she saw me with them. Then suddenly there were fully booked the waitress proceeded to show us a reservation book that had 6 or so reservation in it. So we went somewhere more welcoming. So I left a review that showed how I was treated nowhere in my review did I mentioned those words. But it seems you have a guilty conscience. I state again this place is not warm or welcoming. The owner seems to like to threaten people for leaving honest reviews which makes you a very small insignificant person,Who should get out of the hospitality business asap.

The food is consistently great, with friendly staff, fast service, and a warm atmosphere. Make sure to try the salmon pizza and the star-shaped pizza — both are unique and delicious! We usually spend around €10–20 per person, and the quality is totally worth it. A place we always return to with a smile — see you again next summer!

This place is incredibly busy with fantastic service and great food. If you like authentic pizza and pasta this is the place to try. It’s located in a very humble location, away from the busy waterfront and surrounded by the traffic of three major thoroughfares. Parking was an issue because it was so busy. I would highly recommend booking a reservation in advance to ensure you get a seat.

Restaurant
Osteria Rivelin is a charming 17th-century Italian eatery that offers a memorable dining experience. The restaurant serves homestyle regional dishes and features patio seating for a delightful al fresco meal. It aims to recreate the feeling of enjoying Northern Italian cuisine in your grandmother's kitchen, offering high-end versions of classic dishes from the Italian countryside. Visitors are recommended to try the steak with black truffles or lasagne with stuffed chicken for an ultimate main course experience.
My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at this historic Osteria (tavern) when we were on vacation from Australia back in Oct in and around Largo Di Garda (North East Veneto region of Italy) The Osteria's location, waiter and waitresses were so welcoming and informative of the history of the Osteria and the food ingredients that they prepare are all locally grown and sourced. We had some fantastic delicious courses that were recommended by the waiter and we highly recommend this to anyone who wants to taste authentic traditional cuisine of the area. A must stop if you are coming to this part of Largo Di Guarda

Andres J — Google review
We came here based on TripAdvisor reviews, and the first impression was very good, with a beautiful location and friendly staff. The starters were truly delicious, and the Valpolicella wine was excellent. However, things started to slip a little with the first course. My daughter asked if the pasta dish could be made without ricotta, but this was not possible because the truffle and cheese were combined in one sauce. Of course, we respect the chef’s choices, so we ordered the dish as it was. Still, in the 15 years I have been coming to Italy, it was the first time a chef did not want to prepare a simple pasta for one of my children — something as basic as pasta with olive oil and truffle. As my daughter eats a full four-course meal, she occupies a full place setting at the table. While the tagliatelle with duck sauce was excellent, her pasta was overwhelmed by ricotta and truffle, masking the flavor of the pasta itself. Everyone else’s dishes, both first and main courses, were very good, with generous portions and overall a fair price-to-quality ratio. Unfortunately, what truly let the evening down was the second glass of wine. It contained a large amount of fine cork. When the waitress came to clear the plates, she asked what was wrong, but there was confusion as they initially thought I meant there was cork in the food. Another staff member came over, understood the problem, apologized, and offered a new glass. Even so, I noticed some disapproving looks from behind the counter, and when the replacement glass came, I was shocked to find it was likely poured from the same bottle and had not been checked. It also contained cork. I chose not to make a scene and set it aside. Despite the fact that several staff members noticed this, no one addressed it further. At the end of the evening, when the presumed owner asked each table if they had enjoyed their meal, there was little conversation in my case. It was a missed opportunity. I was not angry, and as a family we had a pleasant evening overall, but the wine and the way it was handled were a real disappointment. The customer is not always right, but if someone says there is cork in the wine and it smells of cork, at the very least it should be checked, especially at €7 a glass, nearly €50 a bottle. A beautiful location with good food, but the service fell short on this occasion. Next time, I hope for better.

We had dinner here. The location is very nice. There is a wide selection of wines (with a dedicated wine list). We received complimentary bread as well as a small appetizer consisting of bread with Gorgonzola and a spoon with cheese and something with apricot. The typical "starters", in this case pasta, are too large for a starter but too small for a main course. Therefore, it's difficult to make the right choice (starter and main course, or just one of them). The food was very good but on the pricier side.
