Verona Opera celebrates 90th anniversary

PRLog (Press Release) - May 28, 2012 - The Opera Festival at Verona celebrates its 90th anniversary this year with six operas  bound together by the common thread of love.  The programme (22 June-2 September)  includes Don Giovanni, Aida, Carmen, Romeo and Juliet, Turandot and Tosca.

Tailor made Italy holiday specialist, ExpertoItaly, is offering a short-break stay in the Bardolino wine-growing area on the eastern shores of Lake Garda, just 25 kms from Verona, with tickets and transfers to the Opera.  

Villa Cordevigo reopened last year as a 5-star wine resort that, with just 12 individually-styled rooms, retains the atmosphere of a traditional 17th century Veneto villa.   The hotel sits at the end of a cypress-lined avenue amidst stunning parkland, flanked by a private chapel, and with a view from the pool across the vineyards and olive groves of the Cavaion Veronese hills.

Package details:  A three-night B & B stay at the Villa Cordevigo starts at £580 per person, inclusive of return flights, a ticket to the Opera (with return transfers) and car rental, with ExpertoItaly.

Two-centre trips are also available, combining a stay at the Villa Cordevigo with an additional three-night stay in Venice.  Prices start at £1060 per person inclusive of four nights (B & B) at the Villa Cordevigo, three nights at the centrally-located Bloom B & B in Venice, return flights, a ticket to the Opera (with return transfers) and car rental.

ExpertoItaly specialises in tailor made hotel and villa holidays in Tuscany, Sicily, Sardinia, the Italian Lakes and on the Amalfi coast.  Hotel accommodation is in a selection of handpicked, independently-run properties.  Further information from http://www.ExpertoItaly.com, tel. 0207 520 3100.
