Relaxed way to enjoy the town - Booked through trip advisor Davide sent clear directions to meet. The walking tour and sunset boat ride being our choice. The easy and pleasant walk took us to the town, a roman villa, castle and church with informative commentary en route. The sunset boat ride on Lake Garda was a very romantic and fun experience with bubbles included, lasting around half an hour. Davide also took photos of the whole experience and shared them. We would highly recommend Umbrella Tours as an interesting and relaxed way to enjoy the town. 5 stars and value for money.

Chiara Klasse - The leadership with Chiara could not have been better. The boat trip was very nice but the drink on board was a joke: 1.5 cm Spumante in a plastic water cup.

Best Evening Tour Ever! - What an amazing evening spent with Chiara. Her knowledge of Desenzano del Garda and its history are exceptional. If you haven’t seen the Roman lakeside villa ruins circa 100BC - 400AD, it’s worth the trip. The villa is in the middle of Desenzano boasts colorful mosaics and frescos that are well preserved and there’s a clear outline of the former structure - just WOW! As a local to the area, Chiara is also very willing to give great tips on the best places to eat, drink and find the best gelato. The sunset cruise was a lovely way to end the evening. Thanks Chiara for a wonderful first night!
