Full description
Embark on a unique experience: a one-hour boat tour of the Simione peninsula. Set off from Desenzano and venture out to discover this pearl set in the breathtaking scenery of Lake Garda.
You will have the opportunity to admire some of its main attractions, from the Rocca Scaligera, the imposing medieval castle that dominates the entrance to the peninsula, to the famous Grotte di Catullo, which will take you back in time.
Sit back, let yourself be lulled by the serene waters of the lake and enjoy the spectacular panorama!
What we will do
The meeting point is 15 minutes before the time selected during the booking process in Desenzano (BS). Once all participants are seated on board, we will be ready to set sail immediately in the direction of Sirmione!

We will see the Scaliger Castle, with its medieval harbour, the Aquaria thermal baths with their sulphurous springs, and the Grottoes of Catullus, one of the largest archaeological areas in northern Italy, housing the remains of a residential villa from the Augustan era.
We will finally return to the meeting point after about 1 hour of navigation.
