Italy Summer Festivals – Milan, Verona – June 29-July 10, 2023

Join us in Italy in 2023 as we return to two of our favorite places: Milan and Verona (for the 100th Anniversary Season of the Arena di Verona). First, we travel to Milan to visit  La Scala. There, we will see MacBeth (featuring Anna Netrebko) and the Prokofiev Romeo and Juliet Ballet. We will tour: the Duomo; Galleria; Santa Maria Della Grazie-Da Vinci’s Last Supper Masterpiece; Brera Art & Poldi Pezzoli Museums; and get a VIP PRIVATE TOUR of La Scala Opera Backstage & Scala Museum. We will also take a day trip to Stresa at lovely Lago Maggiore, all while staying in the 5-STAR Grand Hotel Et De Milan.

After our time in Milan, we travel to London, where we will stay at the 5-STAR Deluxe Hotel Due Torri. During our stay in Verona, we will attend operas at Arena di Verona, where we will see Carmen, Rigoletto, La Traviata, and a brand new production of Aida to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the festival. We will explore: Basilica San Zeno, Teatro Romano, Fortress Museum Castelvecchio, Scaligeri Tombs, Romeo And Juliet Houses; and take day trips to the fortress town of Sirmione on Lake Garda and to see the Ducale Palazzo in Mantua, which is where one of the operas we are seeing, Rigoletto, takes place.
