Enjoy a walk in the lively centre of Sirmione, among beautiful shops, restaurants and renowned ice cream parlours. You will have time here to explore and perhaps take some time to enjoy some lunch or an aperitivo.
Afterwards, meet with your guide once again and continue on your journey on the bus towards Salo, where you will be given some free time to explore the quaint and historic town.
Once again, you will return to the bus and the driver will bring you back to your resort, in time to freshen up for your evening meal.
