Day 1
Dinner at hotel
Travel to your hotel located in beautiful Lake Garda, the gateway to the Italian Alps. Upon arrival, your Visions
Ambassador will conduct an in-depth welcome, safety and orientation meeting followed by an excellent dinner
in the hotel.
Lake Garda - Lake Garda is Italy's largest and most visited lake. The lake is 51km long but only 17km wide at its
widest point in the south. Picturesque villages, medieval castles, and lakeside promenades dot the shoreline.
The lake has a diverse landscape with beaches along the southern shores and rocky cliffs above the northern
shoreline. Lake Garda is known for its clear water; great for swimming in the summer. Windsurfing, sailing,
and hiking in the many parks are popular activities.
Lake Garda is situated in northern Italy between Venice and Milan and set in an alpine region formed by
glaciers at the end of the last ice age. The lake and its shoreline are divided between the provinces of Verona
(to the south-east), Brescia (south-west), and Trento (north). Being easily accessible from the north via the
Brenner Pass, the lake is a major tourist destination including a number of exclusive hotels and resorts along its
shore. The Dolomite Mountains are not far away and can be seen towering above the lake.
http://www.gardaitaly.com & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Garda
Sample Hotel: Hotel Touristico – Located in the vineyard country
near Bussolengo and surrounded by the greenery of a natural park,
Hotel Touristico is an excellent property with a superb pool
complex and outstanding Academy facilities including workshop
rooms and theatre. Students sharing beds will sleep three or four
to a room; teachers sleep two to a room. The hotel bedrooms have
en-suite restrooms and the resort features an excellent restaurant
and café on premises. http://www.hotelgardesano.it

a few kilometres from the old city of Verona, the Hotel Antares is a stylish,
modern and spacious European 4-star hotel set on its own impressive grounds.
The superb on-site facilities include an outdoor swimming pool and ample
Academy workshop space making the Hotel Antares a real winner with Visions
groups! www.hotelantares.com
Tonight, Visions groups will enjoy a wonderful dinner at the hotel to kick off the start of our tour!
Day 2
Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
Good morning Italy! After a leisurely breakfast, we’ll embark upon our first Master Classes!
Master Classes 1 & 2 – Before the start of the tour, teachers will have spoken to our Academy specialists to
discuss and agree upon the programme contents of all Master Classes, the goals and the specific instruction
given. Teachers may opt to have all classes in one discipline, or may elect to have a variety of disciplines
inclusive of Dance, Drama, Art and Music. All classes are instructed by our European team of tutors and are
1.5-hours in length.
After a buffet lunch at the hotel, students will enjoy a discovery tour of Lake Garda Lazise before embarking
upon our third Master Class!
Lake Garda Lazise - Lazise, on the Veronese shore of Lake Garda, has very old origins. The name Lazise comes
from the Latin word ‘lacus’ which means ‘village on the lake’. In fact, Lazise used to be both a place where
there were lake-dwellings besides a Roman suburb, a market and a prestigious castle in the Middle Ages.
http://tangoitalia.com/turismo/veneto/lazise.html
Lazise has many interesting churches, among these is the Romanesque church of San Niccolo (XII century) near
the port. The most evident building in Lazise, which was known as the Customs of Veneto, used to be an
arsenal for ship maintenance. After the reconstruction during the last years, the building began to be used for
holding congresses. Villa Pergolana, located at the end of the lakeside, towards Bardolino, was built in
renaissance style in the XIV century.
After many years, Lazise as well the other towns on the lake, made lots of changes: from a small and poor
town made up of fisherman and farmers to a very important tourist centre full of hotels and restaurants,
allowing it to become one of the favourite destinations on Lake Garda.
After discovering Lake Garda Lazise, we’ll embark upon our third Master Class!
Master Class 3 – choose from disciplines in Dance, Drama, Music & Art instructed by our European team of
professional tutors. We encourage all school groups to delve into the unique culture of Italian Arts and the
Commedia dell’Arte, allowing for instruction in the areas that correlate to this wonderful destination!
After our workshops, we’ll be able to enjoy a brilliant dinner in the hotel leaving the late evening open for a
moonlit walk or a variety of wonderful evening activities! Evening activities may be booked directly with your
Visions Tour Ambassador and include options such as Benacus Amusement Park - an amusement arcade with
bowling, go-carting and laser tag; karaoke night, disco night or a fun evening in with a school quiz night.
Day 3
Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
Good morning Italy! After a great breakfast, we’ll start the day off with our final two Master Classes.
Master Class 4 & 5 – choose from disciplines in Dance, Drama, Music & Art instructed by our European team of
professional tutors.
Following our workshops, we’ll have a leisurely lunch. This afternoon, we’ll be heading to another of Italy’s
great sights – Verona!
Verona – Well known as the setting for the story of Romeo and Juliet, historic Verona is a tangle of its storied
past and modern industry. One of the most powerful cities during the early rule of the Roman Empire, the old
city of Verona is one of the best-preserved sections in the country. The city of Verona has much to offer for
sightseeing, even for those who are not Shakespeare enthusiasts. Unlike most of the larger cities in the
country, you are likely to find only a small percentage of tourists in historic Verona.
Built along the Adige River and the later home of Dante Alighieri, the city boasts a number of beautiful sights
amongst its circuitous streets. The scenic mausoleum of Arche Scaligere houses outdoor tombs bordered by
evil-looking iron gates and is the final resting place of the Scaligeri princes, city leaders well known as both
great warriors and great patrons of the arts. The Arena di Verona is the third largest arena in Italy, and should
not be missed! Despite being constructed in 30 AD, much of the original architecture remains, and the
amphitheatre still houses opera productions throughout the summer. Castelvecchio is a military fortress that
has been transformed into an art museum, renowned for providing shelter to many significant works of art in a
strictly medieval setting.
As you can imagine, seeing a performance of the story of Romeo and Juliet in its true setting is a staple of most
travellers' visit to the city, and the summer months bring about Verona's famous Shakespeare festival, which
includes performances by the Royal Shakespeare Company. To further the legend of the doomed lovers who
may or may not have actually existed, tourists can see the houses of the families that the two were said to
have been based on. http://www.italyguides.it/us/italy/veneto/verona/verona.htm
Groups may determine specific venues that they wish to peruse, however we recommend checking out the
sights below. Please know that while in Verona, you may customize what you would like to see and when you
would like to see it, paying for any admission fees once there.
Vision groups may also add a professional City Guide while in Verona. Please enquire for applicable fees.
Following are some suggested sights to visit in Verona:
Arena di Verona - The Verona Arena (Arena di Verona) is a Roman
amphitheatre which is famous for Opera and also, one of the best preserved
structures of its kind. The building was built in AD 30 on a site which at the
time was outside of the city walls. The ludii (shows and games) staged there
were so famous that spectators came from many other places, sometimes
very distant. The amphitheatre could host more than 30,000 spectators.
Thanks to its outstanding acoustics, the building lends itself to musical
performances, the practice of which began in 1913. http://www.arena.it/enUS/HOMEen.html
Giardini Giusti – The Giusti Garden contains all the features of a typical Renaissance garden: geometrical
layout of flowerbeds and hedgerows, fountains, grottos, mask, mythological statues, avenues of cypresses and
a maze. Mozart, Goethe, kings and emperors have all visited this garden, which for four centuries has been
one of the most beautiful and well-visited in the whole of the Veneto. The garden, designed by Agostino Giusti
as a setting for the villa which bears his name, is made up of three sections: a lawn, a wooded hill with a ravine
and cliff and landscaped terraces with a belvedere.
Piazza delle Erbe - The Forum, the centre of city life during
Roman times, was situated here at Piazza delle Erbe and has
continued to fill this same role for centuries: meeting place, home
to the market, and also home to the city's administration. In fact,
just like many other sites in Verona, the Piazza delle Erbe is one of
the most historical and picturesque city squares in the whole
country.
Located between the Via Mazzini and the Corso Porta Borsari, the
Piazza delle Erbe stands where the ancient Roman forum was
once located. Once a place where chariot races were held, it is
now the site for the local market. Piazza delle Erbe is literally
translated as the Square of Herbs. As the name implies, you can
find all sorts of herbs in the marketplace. Nowadays, herbs are
not the only things of value you can buy in the market. Anything
from clothes, refreshments, and souvenir items are sold in the
numerous stalls scattered around the market square.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piazza_delle_Erbe
Juliet's House (Casa di Giulietta) - “Two households, both alike in dignity, In fair Verona, where we lay our
scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny, Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.”
Who doesn’t know about the love story between Romeo and Juliet? Immortalized by Shakespeare in the first
line of his play, Verona holds the claim to having the house of perhaps the greatest lovers in history. Of
course, there is much debate as to whether the lovers existed or not but that hasn’t stopped hundreds of
thousands of tourists from wanting to see the Casa di Giulietta, or Juliet’s House.
The dell Capello family owned the house on Via Capello for a many years. In fact, it
is the similarity of their name that spurned the popular belief that this was the
house of the Capulets in Shakespeare’s play. The dell Capello’s coat-of-arms can
still be seen on the keystone of the inner archway in the courtyard. From the
courtyard you can see Juliet’s Balcony. This is supposedly the very same balcony
where the tragic heroine cried out to her Romeo. These days, do not be surprised
to see many a young girl standing on the balcony, probably dreaming her own
dreams.
Day 4
Breakfast, Packed Lunch & Dinner
Rise and shine Lake Garda! Today we’re off to explore fabulous Venice! After breakfast, we’ll board our
private motorcoach and head to the city, approximately 2-hours, to discover this incredible region! Home to
gondolas and mask making, beautiful blown glass and unbelievable history; this city is fabulous!
Venice – Venice, gateway to the Orient, is one of the few cities in the world that can be truly described as
unique. Over an extraordinarily long period, the city was embellished with monuments of rare splendour that
today make it a tourist attraction like none other in the entire world...
Venice makes you a believer in fairy tales. Cars are banned, so the only way to get around the 1,500-year-old
city is by foot or by water. From these vantage points, you'll be awed by the magical beauty! La Serenissima,
‘the most serene one’, is filled with palaces and art, fine shopping and excellent food. Relax in Saint Marks
Square, visit the basilicas, have an Italian Ice and wander the alleyways and bridges.
Venice is a city in northern Italy, the capital of the region Veneto, and has a population of approximately
271,251. Together with Padua, the city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area (population
1,600,000). Venice has been known by many names including the ‘City of Water,’ ‘City of Bridges,’ and ‘The
City of Light.’ It is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
The city stretches across 118 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast
Italy. The saltwater lagoon stretches along the shoreline between the mouths of the Po (south) and the Piave
(north) Rivers. The population estimate of 272,000 inhabitants includes the population of the whole Comune
of Venezia; around 62,000 in the historic city of Venice; 176,000 in Terraferma (the Mainland), and 31,000 live
on other islands in the lagoon.
The Venetian Republic was a major maritime power during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and a staging
area for the Crusades and the Battle of Lepanto, as well as a very important centre of commerce (especially
silk, grain and spice trade) and art in the 13th century up to the end of the 17th century.

SELF-GUIDED WALKING TOUR - Schools will arrive in Venice and then take a water taxi to the Bridge of Sighs
and Saint Marks Square. Upon arrival, groups may orchestrate their own self-guided walking tour OR elect to
be entertained with a 3-hour guided walking tour with a professional Venetian Guide, and afterwards, have
2-hours to explore the streets, shops, sights and smells in this delightful city! The choice is yours. General
costs for the 3-hour guided tour are approximately €130, however rates are subjects to change and specific
costs will be confirmed at the time of booking.
Our suggested Venice sites include:
The Bridge of Sighs - Perhaps when it comes to romance, Venice could claim the label of ‘most romantic city in
the world.’ Its tight streets wind through the city in tandem with coursing waterways all set amongst some of
the most stunning architecture. Spanning the Palazzo Rio, or Palace River, is the historically eerie Venice
Bridge of Sighs. Tales of local legend says that lovers will be assured eternal love if they kiss on a gondola at
sunset under the bridge. Thus, it was thought by many that the Bridge of Sighs name was inspired by the sighs
of lovers overwhelmed by the romance of it all. However, beautiful and endearing as that may be, it is for
much darker reasons that the Bridge of Sighs takes its name.
This bridge at Venice was built at the beginning of the 17th century with the
purpose of connecting the Old Prisons and interrogation rooms in the Doge's
Palace, or Palace of the Dukes, to the New Prisons just across the river. Situated
just off the side of Saint Marks Plaza, the Bridge of Sighs is one of the most
famous scenes of the city and its beauty masks what was likely a devastating last
walk for many condemned prisoners. Inspired by Romantic literature and one of
the most romantic of visiting northern European poets, Lord Byron, the Bridge of
Sighs name is actually borne of the notion that one could hear the sighs of these
prisoners as they looked one last time upon the outside world before being
locked up.
St. Mark's Basilica - The mightiest of Venetian monuments, the one that really shows the greatness of Venice,
is undoubtedly the Basilica of San Marco. It was built over several centuries, frequently transformed and
enriched with precious treasures, often from the Far East. Its architecture, a mixture of Byzantine, Roman and
Venetian, is the work of artists and craftsmen from around the world. It can be considered a real laboratory, a
living organism, developing and transforming over the centuries.
The story goes that Mark, one the four Evangelists together with Luke,
Mathew and John, was given the task by Peter, of writing his Gospel and
did so in Rome. The Venetians chose him as their patron saint because
of his ties with Rome thus declaring their independence of the
Byzantine Church. Venetian merchants along the Eastern routes often
stopped at Alexandria to pray on the saint's tomb. And it was in 828
A.D. that two Venetian merchants stole his remains and brought them
back to Venice by ship, after hiding them in a chest full of vegetables
and pork to avoid strict Muslim control. When the saint's body reached
Venice it was welcomed in triumph and the Doge had a new church built
as his tomb.
The Basilica was supposed to be inspired by the Byzantine model, the ancient Church of the Apostles in
Constantinople. The Doge's decision turned out to be a strategic, decisive choice for Venice's prosperity as in
that time of the Middle Ages, owning a saint's remains meant great earnings for a city. As there were twelve
Apostles but only four Evangelists, owning the ‘entire body’ of one of them was a benefit to Venice. The
symbol of St Mark, a winged lion armed with a sword, became the city's emblem. A simple symbol to
represent civil virtues, strength and courage.
Doge’s Palace - If you imagine landing in Venice from the sea, as did those who
came inland by ship, the first thing you see rising out of the water is the
unmistakable shape of the Doge's Palace - the city's most famous building. The
Palace is the most representative symbol of Venice's culture, which, together with
the Basilica of San Marco at the back and the Piazzetta in the forefront, forms one
of the most famous sceneries in the world. For centuries the Doge's Palace had
three fundamental roles: as the Doge residence, the seat of government and as the
palace of justice. This was where some of the most important decisions for
Venice's, and even Europe's, destiny were taken.
Rialto Bridge - The Rialto Bridge is the most famous of the bridges that cross the Grand Canal. At first a simple
bridge of boats, and later a real wooden bridge made from two inclined ramps with a mobile section in the
middle, in order to allow the passage of ships. The current Rialto Bridge, a stone arch, was constructed
between 1588 and 1591.
When Venice was a marine power that navigated and traded throughout a good part of the modern world, big
cargo ships coming from many other countries stopped here in order to unload and sell their merchandise.
Here gathered Venetians with silk and spices from the Orient, traders from Lombardy and Florence who
offered work in metal and textiles, together with Germans and many others coming from other parts of Italy
and from across the Alps. Today the Rialto Bridge is one of the most visited tourist attractions of the city.
The Grand Canal - The Canale Grande, known to English-speaking visitors as the Grand Canal, is the main
aquatic thoroughfare in central Venice. The ‘S’-shaped waterway follows an ancient riverbed from the
Tronchetto parking island, the Piazzale Roma transit centre, and the Santa Lucia railroad station to Piazza San
Marco and St. Mark's Basin. The canal is about 2.5 miles long, with a width that varies from 98 to 230 feet.
The best way to see the canal is to ride a water taxi from the Piazzale
Roma or the railroad station in the direction of Saint Marks. As the
water taxi zigzags between stops on both sides of the canal during its
40-minute journey from the Piazzale Roma to San Zaccaria, you'll pass
under three bridges and see dozens of palaces that were built from
the 12th to 18th Centuries. Another way to see the canal is from the
bridges that cross it. Go to the top of any bridge, find a place at the
railing, and watch the constant stream of vaporetti, barges, water
taxis, police boats, ambulances, gondolas as they float by.
Following our day in this outstanding city, we’ll travel back to our hotel for dinner and then enjoy the
remainder of the evening casually or, perhaps we’ll opt for dancing the night away with a teen disco!
Day 5
Breakfast
Good morning Italy! Today is our last day in beautiful Lake Garda! After breakfast and dependent upon travel
times, we’ll start packing our bags and begin to say goodbye to this awesome region as we head off for home;
taking memories with us that will last forever!
OR, ADD-ON ADDITIONAL DAYS WITH THE FOLLOWING EXCURSION OPTIONS
Day Excursion to Milan, Italy – Milan is a city that arouses extreme feelings. A frenetic, restless rhythm is part
of both work and leisure, so much so that it is difficult to stay unmoved and not get overwhelmed by the
cultural and social stimulus. Maybe for this reason, Milan makes itself indispensable as they say it is
impossible to feel so alive and full of energy when you are away from this city. Milan is always one step ahead:
a laboratory of artistic experiments and a building site for social behaviour that is continuously changing. A
city full of contradictions, ancient and modern, trends and counter-trends, fashion and underground, middle
class and working class, but always simply ‘cool.’
Milan is the biggest city of North Italy; the powerhouse of the country and
one of the most stylish cities of the planet. The now and the next are
invented daily in Milan, Europe's creative capital. Until Milan led the way,
who knew that happy hour could last four hours, that clothing and
household appliances could be made out of basketry, and that coffee could
make a delicious pasta sauce? This city is all about worldly pleasures.
Shopping is of quasi-religious significance. Theatre and cinema flourish in
this fashionable milieu, as does a hopping club scene and a slew of
tempting restaurants. Apart from a few gems, the city is not renowned for
its looks; it's lifestyle that counts.
It’s also a city with many important museums and wonderful monuments. While visiting, make sure to see the
Castello Sforzesco, the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie (which displays Leonardo’s Last Supper), the Brera
Museum (Madonna and Child and Pieta by Bellini), and many other museums, monuments and churches.
Being the fashion capital, you might run into a top model or designer. And if you have money to spend, just
make a visit in via Montenapoleone and via della Spiga where you’ll find boutiques by Gucci, Ferragamo,
Valentino, Armani, Ferre, Fendi and others. Look for other famous designer labels and items such as shoes,
camelhair blankets and leather goods. http://goitaly.about.com/od/moreitaliancities/p/milan.htm
Day Excursion to Gardaland Theme Park – Situated on the banks of Lake
Garda and in the centre of northern Italy, Gardaland has represented an
important point of reference for entertainment for more than twenty years,
suitable for all ages for both Italian and foreign visitors. Located only 12 miles
from Verona, Gardaland is the biggest amusement park in Italy and attracts
more than 3 million visitors every year. Blending all the attractions of a top
class water park with roller coasters, shows and family attractions, Gardaland
is a perfect day out for anyone visiting the north of Italy.
Gardaland has 113 acres of rides, shows and attractions in ten themed areas. The amusement park's 40
attractions include four roller coasters, two water rides, a vertical free-fall ride, and a selection of high-energy
thrill rides. The Gardaland Theatre hosts a number of Broadway-inspired shows while Time Voyagers takes
riders on an ‘extra-sensorial’ journey through time. Other highlights include the Corsairs, a boat trip around a
tropical island fully equipped with sea monsters and Spanish pirates, and Blue Tornado, a roller coaster in
which riders sit in a replica jet plane. Space Vertigo is the requisite 130-foot free-fall ride, while the Jungle
Rapids takes riders on a tour around an ancient civilization on the side of an erupting volcano.
http://www.gardaland.com/en/home.php
Day Excursion to CanevaWorld Aqua-Paradise – CanevaWorld’s AquaParadise is one of the biggest water parks in Europe with water games, super
slides, huge swimming pools, lagoons, acrobatic shows, restaurants and bars.
It's probably the most beautiful Italian waterpark and it definitely is the best
place to be if you want to enjoy a truly sunny, exciting and water filled
summer’s day! There are a lot of water attractions to experience along with
relaxation areas and hydro-massage pools and quiet shady places to linger.
Coming here you will feel the atmosphere of a tropical island supported by
real palm trees! The water park is open May to September.
