How to get around Verona, Italy, by foot, bike, and city bus

Verona lends itself to walking and strolling, and most sites are concentrated within a few history-steeped blocks of each other. Venture off the store-lined treadmill and seek out the narrow, cobblestoned side streets that are evocative of eras past.

Little to no car traffic is permitted in the city center, so upon arrival stash your car in a parking area suggested by your hotel (where they’ll most likely have a special arrangement), and let your feet do the transporting—though for outlying sights you might want to avail yourself of the city's cheap new bike-sharing program, and to get to and from your hotel and the train station, there is the city bus system.

How long does Verona take?

Planning your day: You could knock off the major sights (plus lunch) in six hours or so, and thus visit Verona as a day trip from Venice (or en route to or from Venice, as Verona is one a main rail line).

However, Verona truly deserves an overnight of its own. Its sights are a bit spread out around town, so it sakes a little while to see them all, plus it is simply a lovely place to spend the evening, with the liveliest shopping, restaurant, and nightlife scene of any town in the Veneto region, along with some great hotels.
