/, Lake Garda, Veneto/ITALIAN EXPERIENCE: LAKE GARDA AND VENICE

LAKE GARDA

DAY 1: Arrival at the Airport and transfer to Desenzano del Garda. Check-in at the Acquaviva Hotel.
The Hotels are in the heart of Desenzano del Garda with easy access to the main attractions, restaurants and coffee shops facing the Lake.

DAY 2: Play at Garda Golf Club 27 Holes Championship Course over 110 hectares.
Experts consider the Garda Golf Country Club one of the best golf courses built over the last decades.

DAY 3: Play at Arzaga Golf Club.
9 holes Jack Nicklaus course + 9 holes Gary Player Course.
The two world-famous names designed the course with two very different styles: Jack Nicklaus Junior followed his father’s use of spectacular features, requiring a great deal of work, for an American type of course, whilst Gary Player designed an English-style course with far fewer changes to nature.

DAY 4: Play at Franciacorta Golf Club.
Embedded in a former viticultural reserve surrounded by small lakes, creeks and old farms, golfing here becomes an experience of nature. The 27-hole golf course offers excellent playing conditions.

DAY 5: Check out and transfer to Venice. On the way to Venice you can stop for a Wine Tasting Tour along the wine routes of Valpolicella or a visit of Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliet. Verona’s surviving architecture and urban structure reflects the evolution of this fortified town over its 2,000-year history.

VENICE

DAY 6: Play golf at Circolo Golf Venezia. In the afternoon sightseeing walking tour of Venice going from Saint Mark Square with the external visit of the famous bell tower and the Basilica, the exterior of the Doge’s palace and then continue to the inner streets of the lagoon town called “Calle”.
The Venetian Golf Club can rightfully claim the title of the eldest club in the region and among the oldest ones in Italy. It was built in 1928 and enlarged to 18 holes in 1951 in a spectacular strip of land between the Adriatic Sea and the Lagoon of Venice.

DAY 7: Play golf at Ca’ della Nave. One of the most renowned golf courses on the Venetian mainland, on the background of a splendid 16th-century patrician villa with its centuries-old park, a complex of refined architecture that houses the Club House. 

In the afternoon come back to Venice and choose between two different experiences:

  • Join one of the most important Master for a three hours of Cooking Class to learn how to make some Italian’s classic dishes, the art of homemade “pasta” from scratch following an ancient recipe or a delicious and authentic Tiramisù.
  • Dinner at one of eight Venetian Michelin Starred Restaurants enjoying a unique gastronomic experience tasting the stunning menu prepared by the Chef.

DAY 8: Transfer to Cà Amata Golf Club (1h from Venice). In the afternoon Prosecco wine tasting at Villa Sandi or similar cellar.
