Fun things to do in Peschiera del Garda: 11 fun attractions and activities

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.

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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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.

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.

So much fun, there's something for everyone. We also went during weekday in October, there was minimal queue and wait time even on popular rides. Absolutely recommended visiting if you have kids and are in the area.

The park is beautiful, maintenance is superb, all clean, well taken care of. Halloween decoration was super nice! Prices are very high as usual in amusement parks. Rides are really exiting with many options.

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.

Very nice village with small city centre, with great view of the lake and option to rent boats or go for a waterfront walk. Lots of nice restaurants.

A great place to walk along the water's edge in the shade and so much colours

Gorgeous, quaint and just lovely. There’s a fantastic kids playground atop the battlement, with a great little coffee shop and shaded playground - bit of a hidden gem.

Great little Cafe at the Port of Peschiera. Grabbed a must needed Aperol and Hugo Spritz. There was no table service, but that wasn't a problem.

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.

Really pretty area, lots to see and Monday’s they have a huge market here!

One of my favourite place to visit. Stunning views and lovely people. It’s just a small town. Everyone is laid back. Will definitely be back again.

Gourgous old area of town, lovely walks and atmosphere. Great history to be discovered also. The walk along the canal part is lovely, and there’s a great places to eat and shop in the built up part. Thumbs up.

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.

Beautifull small city, very lovely, romantic and relaxing to walk, enjoy and feel good.

Very crowded area. Bikes, cars, pedestrians all in one place. Wish we had this very schedule. We missed all the tours.

A very pleasant place for morning coffee and cake.

Ok

One beautiful place of silence and peace for souls! I love it

Ok

Beautiful sanctuary, very beautiful

Nice location

wonderfull place

(Translated by Google) We stopped for lunch on our way to Trento. We had a great time. The very kind staff let us sit inside even though we had our little dog (a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel). A wide selection of traditional and non-traditional dishes, and many desserts. A very quiet place near the sanctuary. Ample parking. (Original) Ci siamo fermati per pranzo lungo il nostro tragitto verso Trento. Ci siamo trovati molto bene. Il personale gentilissimo ci ha fatto accomodare all’interno anche se avevamo il nostro cagnolino (cavalier King). Vasta scelta di piatti tipici e non, tanti dolci. Un luogo molto tranquillo vicino al santuario. Ampio parcheggio.

Beautiful walk along the Lake, but barely enjoyable because it is just immensely overcrowded. I came here in late September with awful weather and it was a slalom walk - I do not want to imagine what this looks like in summer.

Fantastic walk toward Peschiera

Day, sunset ans night

Excellent place to walk or run

Wonderful place with wonderful view

Nice place

Very nice place

Had the quick (1 hour) boat tour out around the tip of Sirmione and back today, lovely boat with 15 people in but not crowded, a good amount of space. The captain was very professional, although he didn't share any information about the sights etc. which would have been great and lifted it to 5 stars. Started off slow out the harbour of course, then an exciting fast sprint over to Sirmione (not dangerous at all though, very professional as I say). Then a good slow cruise round the tip of the peninsula with time to take in the sights and get some photos. Another sprint back and an hour well spent. Good value at €20 for adults (including our 15 year old) and half price for our 10 year old. Recommended.

Top Service on Garda Lake, exceptional boat ad great crew!

(Translated by Google) Nice boat trip this afternoon of 2 hours, € 35.00 pp. Past beautiful attractions where the captain sailed quietly so we could take photos. The captain was friendly and explained. A truly successful afternoon! (Original) Leuke boottocht gedaan vanmiddag van 2 uur , € 35,00 pp. Langs mooie attracties waar de kapitein rustig voer zodat we foto's konden maken. De kapitein was vriendelijk en gaf uitleg. Echt een geslaagde middag !

(Translated by Google) I chose Peschiera Boat Tour for a boat excursion to Sirmione which turned out to be a very pleasant experience. The staff proved to be courteous, knowledgeable and professional, making the experience extremely interesting. Precisely for this reason I decided to rely on them also for the tour of the Isola del Garda, which turned out to be equally well organised. The boats are comfortable, the service is punctual and the price is adequate for the quality of the experience. An excellent choice for those who want to explore the lake in complete tranquility (Original) Ho scelto Peschiera Boat Tour per un'escursione in barca a Sirmione che si è rivelata una piacevolissima esperienza. Il personale si è dimostrato cortese, preparato e professionale, rendendo l'esperienza estremamente interessante. Proprio per questo ho deciso di affidarmi a loro anche per il tour dell'Isola del Garda, che si è rivelato altrettanto ben organizzato. Le barche sono confortevoli, il servizio puntuale e il prezzo adeguato alla qualità dell’esperienza. Un’ottima scelta per chi desidera esplorare il lago in tutta tranquillità

Riccardo the driver was very kind, answering all the questions we asked him.. To recommend (Original) Abbiamo approfittato della bella giornata per fare il giro di 2 ore in barca e'stato molto bello sono stati puntuali. Riccardo il conducente e'stato molto gentile rispondendo a tutti i quesiti che gli abbiamo posto.. Da consigliare

(Translated by Google) What can I say! These guys are truly the best. My husband and I celebrated our 60th birthday by surprising our family and friends. It was an unforgettable day! Aperitif in the middle of the lake with Sirmione Castle as our backdrop. They are super helpful and attentive to every request. Thank you so much for a wonderful day 👍 (Original) Che dire! Questi ragazzi sono veramente il TOP. Io e mio marito abbiamo festeggiato i 60 anni, facendo una sorpresa ai nostri familiari e amici. Giornata indimenticabile! Aperitivo in mezzo al lago con Castello di Sirmione che faceva da cornice. Sono super disponibili e attenti ad ogni richiesta. Grazie di cuore per la magnifica giornata 👍

(Translated by Google) The pilot simply told us where we were and then went to his cell phone. He didn't tack so everyone could take pictures. Climb on the port side so you can take pictures. Interesting tour, however, from June 15th at 4 p.m. (Original) Le pilote s’est contenté de nous dire où nous étions pour ensuite se plonger sur son portable Ne fait pas de virement de bord pour que tout le monde puisse faire des photos Montez côté bâbord vous pourrez faire des photos Tour cependant intéressant du 15/6 à 16h

(Translated by Google) Beautifully situated playground on a hill above Peschiera with panoramic views of Lake Garda. Poplar trees provide shade, making the playground especially attractive on sunny days. However, the equipment is past its best. Drinks and snacks are available at a kiosk. (Original) Wunderschön gelegener Spielplatz auf einer Anhöhe von Peschiera mit Panoramablick auf den Gardasee. Die Pappeln spenden Schatten, sodass der Spielplatz gerade an sonnigen Tagen attraktiv ist. Die Geräte haben allerdings die beste Zeit hinter sich. An einem Kiosk kann man sich Getränke und Snacks kaufen.

A 10 minuti di macchina da Gardaland consiglio vivamente di farsi un giro

Lol)

Best in peschiera!!

(Translated by Google) Quality for the price not bad considering I got a coupon. Desserts to absolutely review because of poor quality I was disappointed but the rest of the posts were good. Nice to eat outside on the porch even if there isn't a nice view. (Original) Qualità rapportato al prezzo non male considerando che ho preso un coupon. Dolci da rivedere assolutamente perché di scarsa qualità sono stato deluso ma il resto Delle postate buono. Bello mangiare sotto il portico all'esterno anche se non cec un bel panorama.

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately, I haven't been able to attend for a while now because there aren't any evening classes that allow me to get there on time. The last class is at 6:00 p.m., which is impossible these days, when all sports clubs tend to extend their hours to attract evening clients. I hope something changes; in the meantime, I've found an alternative. (Original) Purtroppo non posso più frequentare da tempo perché non ci sono corsi serali che mi permettono di arrivare in tempo ultimo corso ore 18 impossibile al giorno d'oggi dove tutte le realtà sportive tendono a prolungare gli orari per acquisire anche la clientela serale. Spero cambi qualcosa, io intanto ho trovato l'alternativa

(Translated by Google) It's a shame there are only 5 stars, because they deserve more. The staff is very kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. Clean environment, heated pools. Fair prices.

(Translated by Google) I've been a few times this summer, accessing the pool the last two hours it was open (reduced rate). Today I was looking at the flyer I took at the beginning of the season and I see that the opening hours have changed from the end of August. I look at the website and it shows a different opening time. I then phone one of the two numbers written, they inform me that the opening hours are neither the one on the flyer nor the one on the website, today it closes at 6.30pm. I therefore ask if by showing up two hours before closing (4.30pm) it would be possible to access with a reduced rate reserved for those who enter in the last two hours. I'm told "absolutely yes". I show up at the time, and the guy at the cash desk tells me in a completely arrogant way that I have to pay €20 for two hours for two people (as if I had to stay there all day) and that I phoned the wrong number even though it was written on the flyer, I had to call the other number written. I therefore ask to speak to the manager (on the phone because he isn't there). The manager, Mr. Nicola, confirms that now that they are closing earlier there is no reduction. In the meantime, a person arrives, probably a friend of the boy at the counter, gives him €5 in cash (same reduced rate that I would have liked to pay) and enters without a receipt being issued. I took it and left. Total disorganization, wrong information, rudeness. (Original) Sono stato alcune volte questa estate, accedendo alla piscina le ultime due ore di apertura (tariffa ridotta). Oggi guardavo il volantino preso a inizio stagione e vedo che l'orario di apertura da fine agosto cambia. Guardo il sito e riporta un orario di apertura diverso. Telefono quindi ad uno dei due numeri scritti, mi informano che l'orario di apertura non è né quello sul volantino né quello sul sito, oggi chisura 18.30. Chiedo quindi se presentandosi a due ore dalla chiusura (16.30) fosse possibile accedere con tariffa ridotta riservata a chi accede alle ultime due ore. Mi viene detto "assolutamente si". Mi presento all'orario, e il ragazzo in cassa in modo del tutto arrogante mi dice che devo pagare per due persone 20€ per due ore (come se dovessi stare lì tutto il giorno) e che ho telefonato al numero errato anche se era scritto sul volantino, dovevo chiamare l'altro numero scritto. Chiedo quindi di parlare con il responsabile (al telefono perché non c'è). Il responsabile signor Nicola, conferma che adesso che chiudono prima non c'è la riduzione. Nel frattempo arriva una persona, probabilmente amica del ragazzo allo sportello, gli da 5€ in contanti ( stessa tariffa ridotta che avrei voluto pagare io) ed entra senza che venga emesso lo scontrino. Ho preso e me ne sono andato. Disorganizzazione totale, informazioni sbagliate, maleducazione.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, very clean, beautiful and well-kept pools, qualified staff, everywhere. (Original) Bellissimo posto molto pulito piscine bellissime e tenute bene,personale qualificato, ovunque.

(Translated by Google) I recently visited this pool with my family and had a less than positive experience with one of the lifeguards. While relaxing on a lounger, I received a scolding for eating ice cream and bringing a glass bottle, both of which are prohibited by pool rules. I understand the importance of rules to ensure safety and hygiene, but I believe there is a more respectful and kind way to communicate these rules to guests. Especially when it comes to pregnant guests or those with special needs, a little understanding and kindness can make a big difference. I hope that in the future, the pool staff can be more attentive and respectful towards guests. The facility itself is beautiful and clean, but the experience could be further improved with a little more attention to the customer. Thank you Michela Iannazzo (Original) Sono stata recentemente in questa piscina con la mia famiglia e ho avuto un'esperienza non molto positiva con uno dei bagnini. Mentre stavo rilassandomi sul lettino, ho ricevuto una ramanzina per aver mangiato un gelato e per aver portato una bottiglia di vetro, entrambe cose vietate dalle regole della piscina. Capisco l'importanza delle regole per garantire la sicurezza e l'igiene, ma credo che ci sia un modo più rispettoso e gentile per comunicare queste regole ai clienti. Soprattutto quando si tratta di clienti incinte o con esigenze particolari, un po' di comprensione e gentilezza possono fare una grande differenza. Spero che in futuro il personale della piscina possa essere più attento e rispettoso nei confronti dei clienti. La struttura in sé è bella e pulita, ma l'esperienza può essere ancora migliorata con un po' di attenzione al cliente. Grazie Michela Iannazzo

(Translated by Google) I just visited this Sporting Club and found a wonderful Olympic-sized pool and friendly staff. It's a shame there are no hydromassage tubs, which you can find everywhere these days. Unfortunately, the restrooms were very dirty and in need of maintenance. (Original) Sono appena stata in questo Sporting club ed ho trovato una splendida piscina olimpionica, personale gentile, peccato manchino gli idromassaggi che ormai trovi dappertutto, ma purtroppo i servizi erano molto sporchi e bisognosi di manutenzione.
