Amarone country starts just beyond Verona's northern edge. The Valpolicella hills hold the Classico communes of Negrar, Marano, Fumane, Sant'Ambrogio and San Pietro in Cariano, where Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes are air-dried for the region's strong reds. Soave and its Garganega vineyards sit east of the city, while Bardolino, Custoza and Lugana country runs along the Lake Garda shore to the west. Most estates receive visitors by reservation only, and the tours compared here handle that booking for you.
Fourteen bookable tours sit below, each with its listing rating, a from-price, what the day includes and where it starts.
First time in Amarone country and no car: book the half-day Amarone tasting tour from Verona, two wineries with hotel pickup, rated 4.9 across 762 reviews, from $145 per person.
Want a full day with lunch: the grand tour of Valpolicella runs about 5 hours across two wineries with an Amarone vintage tasting, from $246.
Staying on Lake Garda: the Garda hills tasting starts at $52 and meets at the winery, while the Valpolicella wine and lunch trip collects you at the lake towns from $103.
Prefer to move under your own steam: the self-guided e-bike ride costs $110 for a half day, and the panoramic tasting above Verona takes about 1.5 hours from $53.
Based in Venice, or after a private car: the private Amarone and Soave day from Venice or Treviso starts at $280 for about 8 hours, and the private full day from Verona with lunch at $419. See all three private options.
The formats are simple to tell apart. Half days from the city cover Valpolicella and Amarone. Full days add lunch and, on some itineraries, Soave. Lake Garda tours pair Bardolino country with the water. Two listings are winery-direct: an e-bike ride and a hillside tasting. Three are private, including departures from Venice. Every listing shows its from-price, rating and inclusions so you can compare like with like.

Wine touring and driving do not mix well in Italy. The legal blood-alcohol limit for drivers is low, stricter still for newer licence holders and professionals, and penalties for driving over it run from heavy fines to licence suspension and, at the top end, criminal charges. A cellar tasting usually means several pours, and the tours listed here often include four or more. With a guided tour the driving is someone else's job, and the vineyard roads between Negrar, Fumane and Marano are narrow and unfamiliar even to confident drivers.
Verona's historic centre is a limited-traffic zone controlled by cameras, and hotel guests must have their plates registered to drive in. Out in the Valpolicella, most wineries take visitors by reservation, many keep weekday hours, and a cellar tour with tasting carries a per-person fee that the best estates set at a premium. A guided tour bundles the driver, the reservations and the tastings into one price. The other honest route is a winery-direct visit with a non-driving companion or an e-bike, and two such listings appear below.
Three listings cover the half-day format. Two collect you in Verona and drive into the Valpolicella hills for winery visits and tastings built around Amarone and its stablemates. The third is a guided tour of a historic family estate, run by the winery itself, with transport offered as an option. All three allow free cancellation.

Pagus Wine Tours runs this half-day escape out of Verona and into the Valpolicella hills, with pickup at your city hotel. At least four wines are poured: Valpolicella, Ripasso, Amarone and Recioto, each paired with bread, cheese and salami. The listing rates it 4.8 from 146 reviews, from $105 per person.
The grand tour runs about five hours, visits two Valpolicella wineries and sits down to lunch, with an Amarone vertical among the tastings. A shorter day pairs a Soave winery with a Valpolicella stop and includes hotel pickup. The third listing is a vineyard walk and cellar tasting in Soave itself, run by a local operator.
Most reviews in this category
A full-day-style loop through the Valpolicella hills north of Verona, built entirely around Amarone. Your Local Guide takes you to two wineries, with a focus on how the appassimento method shapes the wine, and lunch is part of the day rather than an afterthought. The tour runs about 5 hours and is rated 4.9 across 170 reviews on the listing.
A winery visit inside Soave's historic centre: a guided walk among the vines, a look at the cellar where the wines rest, then a tasting of four organic wines poured alongside a platter of local cured meats and cheeses plus baked appetizers. You meet at the winery, as no transport is provided. Rated 4.9 across 17 reviews on the listing.
A half-day out of Verona that pairs Veneto's best-known white and red in one run. First stop is Soave, Garganega country east of the city, for a tasting of the local DOC whites. Then the van turns toward the Valpolicella hills, where a second winery pours Ripasso and Amarone. Pagus Wine Tours runs it in about 4.5 hours, from $170 per person.
Bardolino, Custoza and Lugana are the lake's own designations, reds and whites shaped by the Garda climate. The three listings here take different angles. One is a tasting at a winery in the Garda hills and carries one of the lowest from-prices on the site. Another is a half-day cruise past the lakeside castles with a tasting on board. The third picks up at the lake towns and drives into the Valpolicella for winery visits and an agriturismo lunch.

A half-day boat trip on Lake Garda run by Garda Tours, sailing from Sirmione with the lake's castles in view and a wine tasting with snacks served during the crossing. Sailings go ahead only when enough participants are booked. The listing shows a rating of 4.6 across 297 reviews.
CittàdiLazise hosts this tasting at their own estate in the hills behind Lake Garda. The visit takes in the vineyard and the cellar, then finishes at a table set with four wines and a platter of cold cuts, cheese and bruschetta. Since you make your own way to the winery, the from-price holds at $52 per person, and the listing shows a 4.8 rating across 155 reviews.
A half-day guided trip that trades the Lake Garda shore for the Valpolicella hills, operated by Likegarda. You get picked up at your hotel around the lake, ride into wine country, tour a cellar with tastings of the local reds, then sit down to lunch at an agriturismo. The listing shows 4.6 from 50 reviews, from $103 per person.
Two listings skip the minibus. One is a self-guided half-day e-bike ride out of Verona into the Valpolicella vineyards, with tastings and a cheese and salami stop. The other is a short tasting of five wines at a family winery in the hills above the city. Neither includes vehicle transport; both are booked directly with the operator.

Roughly 1.5 hours at Cantina Giovanni Ederle, a family winery in the hills above Verona. A guide walks you through the vines and cellar, then pours five wines, from a white up through Valpolicella, Ripasso and Amarone, alongside local cheeses and cured meats. Groups stop at 20 and you meet at the winery itself. It rates 4.9 across 279 reviews on the live booking page.

Pedal out of Verona on an e-bike and into the Valpolicella hills on this half-day self-guided ride from Itinera Bike & Travel. Wine tastings at a local winery are built into the route, and you set your own pace before rolling back to the city. The listing shows a 4.8 rating from 82 reviews.
Three private options close the list. One is a full day from Verona built around Ripasso and Amarone with a full lunch. Another runs about eight hours from Venice or Treviso, visiting a Soave winery and a Valpolicella winery. The third picks up in Venice, Padua or Verona for an eight-hour day with two cantinas and a trattoria lunch. Travellers based in Venice can also reach Verona by train and join a city departure.
Most reviews in this category
A private day of about 8 hours covering both halves of Veneto wine country: the Garganega slopes of Soave and the Amarone hills of the Valpolicella. Guided tastings at a winery in each zone, with time in Verona worked into the route. Run by Italy Tours and More, rated 5.0 across 42 reviews on the listing.
A private 8-hour day trip from Venice, Padua or Verona into the Valpolicella hills, run by Venice Day Trips. Pickup comes at your accommodation, and the day is built around Amarone and the other wines of the zone. Rated 5 across 37 reviews, from $632 per person, with free cancellation.
This is a full-day private tour out of Verona, centred on Amarone and the Valpolicella hills. A driver-guide takes your party into the cellars for tastings of Ripasso and Amarone, with a long lunch matched to the wines. Starts and ends in Verona, at the meeting point on the listing.
Inclusions differ from listing to listing, so the table is the place to check. Five of the fourteen build in a meal: the grand tour serves a light lunch, the Lake Garda trip ends at an agriturismo, and the three private days each include lunch, from trattoria plates to a full spread. The remaining tours pair their tastings with bread, cheese, salami or a platter rather than a meal. Transport is included on both Verona pickup half days, the grand tour, the Soave and Amarone day, the Lake Garda trip and the private days; it is offered as an option on the estate tour in the Valpolicella; the winery-direct, cruise and e-bike formats expect you to arrive under your own steam. Every listing on the site offers free cancellation.

Verona sits within 40 minutes by car of three wine zones: the five Valpolicella Classico communes to the north-west, Soave to the east, and the Bardolino, Custoza and Lugana country along Lake Garda to the west. The city also hosts Vinitaly every April.
The harvest shapes the calendar. Valpolicella's red grapes are picked in early autumn, and the fruit destined for Amarone then spends months drying on racks before pressing, so the drying rooms are at their most interesting on a late-autumn visit. Spring brings Vinitaly, the international wine fair held at Veronafiere, when the city fills with trade visitors. Summer means the Arena opera season and hot afternoons best spent on a morning tour or beside Lake Garda. Winter is quiet, and the cellars are warm places to taste.
Amarone Opera Prima brings the newest vintage to Verona each year between late January and early February. The 2026 edition ran on 31 January and 1 February, pouring the 2021 vintage, while January nights in the city average around minus 0.5 C.
Fits: the half-day Amarone tasting tour and the panoramic tasting above Verona.
Vinitaly takes over Veronafiere from 11 to 14 April 2027, while the public-facing Vinitaly and the City runs 9 to 11 April. April afternoons in Verona average 18.7 C.
Fits: the grand tour of Valpolicella with lunch and the Soave vineyard walk.
Summer sets the pace: the Arena opera season runs 11 June to 11 September 2027, the Palio del Chiaretto fills Bardolino and Lazise in early June, and July afternoons average 30.4 C.
Fits: the Sirmione castle cruise, the Garda hills tasting and a morning start on the e-bike ride.
Autumn is harvest time in Veneto, roughly from mid-September into October. The grapes destined for Amarone and Recioto then dry in ventilated lofts through the autumn before pressing, which is why the Valpolicella cellars are at their most atmospheric in November.
Fits: the half-day Amarone tasting tour, the private full day from Verona and the wine and lunch trip from Lake Garda.
Every wine poured on these tours comes from one of three zones within easy reach of the city. The Valpolicella reds are built on Corvina and Corvinone with Rondinella in the blend, the same grapes behind Amarone, Ripasso and Recioto. Soave is a white region built on Garganega, and the Lake Garda shore adds Bardolino and Chiaretto reds plus the Custoza and Lugana whites.
The grapes are dried after harvest, then fermented dry, and the finished wine must reach 14 percent alcohol and age two years before release. The result is the region's flagship red.
Poured on the half-day Amarone tasting tour, the grand tour with lunch and the e-bike ride.
Ripasso starts as Valpolicella, then the finished wine is passed over the marc left from Amarone or Recioto, a second maceration that adds body and lifts the minimum alcohol to 12.5 percent.
Poured on the half-day Amarone tasting tour and the private full day from Verona.
Valpolicella's fresh, youthful style, made from the same blend and requiring a minimum of 11 percent alcohol, while the Classico designation covers the five historic communes north-west of Verona.
Poured on the Amarone half-day tour and the day from Venice, Padua or Verona.
Recioto is Amarone's sweeter, older counterpart. Same dried grapes, but fermentation stops early, leaving a minimum of 2.8 percent potential alcohol as residual sweetness in the glass.
No listing names it as a pour; ask for it on the cellar visits in the Valpolicella half days.
Soave's whites come from Garganega, the grape behind the walled town's wine. The DOC requires a minimum of 10.5 percent alcohol, Superiore needs 12 percent, and the Classico zone covers only Soave and Monteforte d'Alpone.
Poured on the Soave vineyard walk, the Soave and Amarone half day and the private day from Venice.
Bardolino, the light red poured all along the lake, and its Chiaretto rose are made from the same grapes as Valpolicella, at a lower minimum of 10.5 percent, across 16 communes on the eastern and south-eastern shore.
Closest listed tours: the Lake Garda, Bardolino and Sirmione category.
Lugana comes from the flat lakeshore at the lake's southern end, made from Turbiana at 90 percent or more, and Peschiera del Garda is the only commune in the zone within Verona's province.
Closest listed tours: the Sirmione castle cruise and the rest of the Lake Garda category.
A blended white from the moraine hills between Verona and the lake, built on at least three of the four local grapes in the recipe, and easy to taste on the drive out to Bardolino country.
Closest listed tours: the wine and lunch trip from Lake Garda, which picks up at Peschiera del Garda.
Picture the city in the centre. The Valpolicella Classico communes sit a short drive to the north-west, Soave lies east beyond the plains, and the Lake Garda towns of Lazise and Bardolino spread west along the shore. Every one of these points is within roughly forty minutes of the centre by car, which is why half-day tours work so well here.

“We had a lovely small group. Our guide Emmanuele was good fun and very knowledgeable. The minibus was cool and comfortable. Both Vineyards gave an interesting and informative tour that wasn’t too long before we got down to the serious business of sampling their delicious wines. The morning tour gave us the afternoon to sleep off the effects of the wine before our evening activity. A must do for wine lovers.”

“A very interesting guided tour in a beautiful 17th-century palazzo. From the vineyards to the cellars, historical utensils: the guide knew everything there was to know about them. The tasting was amazing. We tasted 4 wines, and the verbal explanation was accompanied by beautiful slides on a gigantic TV screen. The wine itself was very tasty. Highly recommended. In addition to the palazzo, you can also take a lovely walk through the hills of other vineyards.”

Four of the fourteen tours collect guests from hotels in the city, and a fifth picks up from the Lake Garda towns. A base inside the old city walls or on the eastern shore keeps the morning transfer short and leaves the evening free for an aperitivo.

Check ratesThe Classico communes sit in the hills just north-west of Verona, close enough that a half-day tour with transport runs comfortably within an afternoon. Soave lies east of the city, and the Bardolino and Lugana vineyards follow the Lake Garda shore to the west. Driving times shift with traffic, and summer weekends on the lake roads can slow a journey considerably. Every tour on this site states its departure point and meeting arrangements, so the logistics are settled before you book.
You can, provided your driver is not tasting. Italy's general blood-alcohol limit is 0.5 g/l, and it drops to zero for drivers under 21, anyone in the first three years of a category B licence, and professional drivers. The 0.5 to 0.8 g/l band carries a fine of 543 to 2,170 euros and a licence suspension of three to six months. Verona's historic centre is a camera-controlled ZTL, and most Valpolicella estates receive visitors by reservation. A guided tour bundles the driver, the bookings and the tasting fees into one price.
Every one of the fourteen tours here publishes a from-price in US dollars, and they run from $34 to $632. The Soave vineyard walk in the historic centre is the entry point at $34, (checked September 2026) the Garda hills tasting starts at $52, and the Amarone half days from Verona begin between $105 and $145. The grand Valpolicella tour with two wineries and lunch is $246, while the private days, including the Venice departures, run from $280 to $632 (checked September 2026). All fourteen carry free cancellation.
Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG starts with Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella laid out to dry after harvest, using at most 65 percent of the permitted crop. Pressing cannot happen before 1 December, the wine ages at least two years from the January after harvest, and minimum alcohol is 14 percent. Ripasso is Valpolicella refermented on the marc of Amarone or Recioto for extra body. Recioto is the sweet wine from the same dried grapes, and it is the older style of the two.
Harvest usually runs from mid-September to early October, and the drying lofts fill from then until pressing begins on or after 1 December. Spring brings Vinitaly, the large April wine fair held in town. The Arena opera season carries the summer, and the city fills accordingly. July and August heat makes morning departures the comfortable choice. All fourteen listed tours run year-round with free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure.
Three listed tours suit travelers based beyond Verona. One is a private eight-hour day from Venice or Treviso, another is an eight-hour day with pickup in Venice, Padua or Verona, and a third departs from Venice, Padua or Verona as well. High-speed trains reach Verona Porta Nuova from both Venice and Milan in roughly an hour and a quarter, so a Verona departure works as a day trip from either city. No tour on this site departs from Milan itself.
Tasting fees are included on every tour listed here. Lunch appears on five of them: the grand Valpolicella tour with two wineries, the Lake Garda trip with lunch at an agriturismo, the private full day from Verona, and the two Venice-side private days. The rest pair the wines with bread, cheese, salami or bruschetta. Each tour page spells out the full inclusions taken from the live listing.
Guided visits at Valpolicella estates generally go by reservation, most cellars open Monday to Saturday, and Sundays are quiet. Estate-direct tasting prices run from about 25 euros for a short visit to 120 or more for vertical and lunch formats. Three winery-direct options on this site, the Soave vineyard walk, the Garda hills tasting and the panoramic tasting above Verona, are booked with a fixed meeting point at the winery.
Behind this page sit planning guides and short answers, grouped by the question each one settles, from booking norms to driving rules and harvest timing.
