Desenzano del Garda: A Gem on Lake Garda
Located on the southern shore of Lake Garda, Desenzano del Garda is a lively and historically fascinating town. With its picturesque streets lined with shops, elegant cafés, and a charming lakeside promenade, Desenzano offers the perfect balance of relaxation and entertainment. The town boasts a rich history, dating back to Roman times, as seen in the ruins of the Roman Villa, and a vibrant social scene thanks to its gourmet restaurants, markets, and lively summer evenings. Desenzano is the ideal starting point for exploring Lake Garda and enjoying the area's natural beauty, making it one of the most beloved destinations for international travelers.

The itinerary

Car Pickup in Sirmione
To make your trip even more convenient, Benacus Dreams Cars offers the option to pick up your car at one of our partner hotels in Sirmione. This option allows you to start your itinerary in comfort, departing directly from your luxury accommodation and heading towards Desenzano, just a few minutes away.

 

Start at the Old Port
Begin your journey in the morning at the Old Port, one of the most picturesque spots in Desenzano. Park your car along the promenade and enjoy a relaxing walk among the historic docks, admiring the sailboats and the village's charming atmosphere. Along the port, you'll find elegant cafés, perfect for breakfast or an aperitif with a view.

 

Desenzano Castle: A Stunning Panoramic View
After exploring the port, head up to Desenzano Castle, located in a dominant position over the city. The climb to the castle is perfect for testing your car's performance, while nearby parking allows you to walk to this medieval fortress. Once there, you’ll be rewarded with a spectacular view of the lake and the surrounding mountains.

 

A Gourmet Break on the Lakeshore
After visiting the castle, it's time for a lunch break. Desenzano is full of restaurants and trattorias offering traditional dishes from the Garda region. We recommend Ristorante Esplanade, where you can enjoy refined lake fish dishes and local products, all paired with a glass of Lugana wine.

 

Walk Along Lungolago Cesare Battisti
After lunch, continue with a leisurely walk along Lungolago Cesare Battisti, a pedestrian area directly overlooking the crystal-clear waters of Lake Garda. The contrast between the elegant moored boats and the town's historic architecture makes this stroll a must.

 

Giovanni Rambotti Archaeological Museum
If you're a history enthusiast, stop at the Archaeological Museum of Desenzano to discover artifacts dating back to the Bronze Age. One of the most fascinating pieces is the famous "Piroga di Lavagnone," an ancient boat that offers insight into lake life thousands of years ago.

 

A Sunset on the Water
To end the day in style, we recommend a boat experience on Lake Garda. Rent a private boat or join a guided tour to admire the sunset on the water, surrounded by the natural scenery that only Lake Garda can offer. This is the perfect way to relax after a full day aboard your Ferrari.
