If you are considering a holiday that combines sun, rich culture and stunning scenery then look no further than this Lake Garda SuperSaver Holiday. The Lake Garda region offers a huge variety of activities for holiday makers – the narrow northern corridor is a Mecca for boating activities and the surrounding Dolomites are a perfect getaway for hill walkers and nature lovers as well as those simply wishing to relax in beautiful surroundings.

Lake Garda straddles three provinces, Verona to the south east, Brescia to the south west and Trento to the north; it’s also Italy’s largest lake. While it is renowned for its magnificent landscape, it also has an intriguing history and rich culture. History enthusiasts will enjoy exploring the quaint medieval villages that dot the lake and there are many attractions of both historical and cultural significance to visit in the region.

Lake Garda has provided our customers with many happy memories for the past two decades and many people return time and time again.
