Lake Garda, Italian Lakes, Italy Holiday Review

Date of travel: 10-August-2006
I went with 30 of my teenage school kids to Lake Garda. This is definitely a great place for kids. Although next time I'm going to take my own!
The Gardaland theme park is fantastic. The vertical drop and the log flumes were a particular favourite. The water park was also great fun. Plenty of flumes to keep the kids and their young at heart teachers entertained! I didn't have any problems letting the kids enjoy the park in groups. They were completely safe the whole time.
Everyone like pasta and pizza so no problems with getting kids to eat everything. For the grown ups the locally produced Valpolicella wine is fantastic. The heat did get to some of them so pack the sun block and hats! And because this area is still very much Italian, we got plenty of opportunity to speak the language but if any of the kids got stuck, the locals were very friendly and easily switched to english.

I visited lake Garda on my own & can say quite easily that this is one of the prettiest places I have ever seen, especially the Balcony of Thrills at Tremosine the view over the lake is second to none. Also the pretty harbour and village of Limone with its cobbled streets and picturesque buildings. I was a little bit intrepid at first as this was the first holiday I ever undertook alone, but no worries I found everything very relaxed and friendly
