Amarone is Valpolicella’s masterpiece, dried grapes and long patience, and the hills that make it are twenty minutes from Verona. Here are the best Valpolicella and Amarone tours: which visit family estates and which the grand names, how many wines you taste, whether lunch is included, and which lay on a driver so nobody has to stay sober for the road home.

“Our guide was Lorenzo. He was knowledgeable of the history of Verona. The winery was nice and it has been passed on within the same family from generation to generation since 1896. The views are amazing. Even though the bikes are electric, you still need to be in good health to do the tour. Keep in mind that part of the ride will be in narrow curved roads shared with car drivers.”
