Verona with Children — Things to Do in the Historic Centre
Verona is often associated with the love story of Romeo and Juliet, but it is also an extraordinary city to experience as a family. The historic centre is entirely walkable, full of monuments, gardens, interactive museums and hidden corners that children will love to explore.
Here is the complete guide to organising a family holiday in Verona — from the must-see attractions to practical tips for enjoying the city with the whole family.
The Best Attractions for Children in Verona
Verona Arena 🏛️
The first-century Roman amphitheatre is the first unmissable stop. Climbing the two-thousand-year-old stone steps is an experience that strikes children in an extraordinary way — they feel transported back in time.
During the summer season the Arena hosts the famous opera season, but it can be visited during the day all year round. We recommend taking children in the early morning when there are fewer crowds.

Children's Museum Verona 🔬
A museum designed specifically for children aged 0 to 12. The fundamental principle is simple: touching is compulsory! Children can experiment, build, play and discover the world through interactive workshops dedicated to science, technology, art and mathematics.
⚠️ Important: entry is limited. It is strongly recommended to book tickets online in advance to avoid queues and disappointment.
Information and bookings: www.childrenmuseumverona.it
Torre dei Lamberti 🗼
The medieval tower of 84 metres in the heart of Piazza Erbe offers a breathtaking panoramic view over all of Verona. The lift makes it accessible even for younger children. Climbing to the top is an experience that thrills little ones — and helps them understand the layout of the city from above.
Giardino Giusti 🌿
One of the most beautiful Renaissance gardens in Italy, with hedge mazes, fountains, centuries-old cypress trees and a panoramic terrace. Children love exploring the maze and running along the pathways. A green oasis in the heart of the city.
Juliet's House 💑
Via Cappello 23 — the famous Juliet's balcony is a stop that fascinates older children too, especially if they already know the story of Romeo and Juliet. The inner courtyard is always open and entry is free.
Piazza Erbe and the Market 🛒
The oldest square in Verona is the beating heart of the city. In the morning it hosts a lively market with fruit, vegetables, local products and souvenirs. Wandering through the stalls with children is an authentic and engaging experience.
Nearby are some of Verona's best artisan gelaterias — a sweet stop is a must 🍦
Ponte Pietra and the Lungadige 🌊
Ponte Pietra is Verona's oldest Roman bridge, with a spectacular view over the Adige river and the surrounding hills. The walk along the Lungadige is ideal for families — a flat, safe and scenic route along the river.
Boat Trip on the Adige 🚣
From May to September it is possible to take a boat trip on the Adige through the historic centre of Verona. A water adventure in the heart of the city that children will not easily forget.
Practical Tips for Visiting Verona with Children
🚶 The historic centre is entirely walkable and free of architectural barriers on the main routes — ideal for pushchairs and young children.
🚌 No car needed — from Verona Porta Nuova station the entire centre is reachable on foot in just a few minutes.
🌡️ In summer temperatures in Verona can be high — bring water, hats and sunscreen. Early mornings are the best time to visit outdoor monuments.
🎟️ For the Children's Museum always book online in advance — spaces fill up quickly, especially at weekends and during school holidays.
🍕 Verona has many family-friendly restaurants and trattorias in the historic centre — ask for an outdoor table when the weather allows.
