    Lovely way to spend a couple of hours
    We stumbled on this by chance and are so glad we found it. The gardens in September were beautiful and the are lots of different paths for you to wander around and areas for quiet contemplation. You can also visit an apartment in the building and I found it fascinating. The rooms have been kept as they would have been years ago, some over the top with a riot of colour on the walls and furnishings and others much more parred back. One was dedicated to horses with horseshoe shaped furniture!

    Fabulous gardens. The highlight of our Verona trip
    Magical place. If you didn't know it was there you would just walk past as entrance is anonymous. Enter and you are in another world. Fabulous gardens you can explore. At first glance, a formal garden with topiary and statues. Explore and climb the hidden steps to the top and you will find grotto, follies, belvedere. And amazing views over the city. Hardly anyone else there when we visited which made it all the better... Only complaint, no guide book as I would love to have had a good historical guide explaining the development of the gardens over the centuries.

    Memories of days past.
    So lovely to visit this very special garden with my friend who used to come here as a young woman with her books to study in a quiet shady corner. Her friend was one of the Giusti family so she visited often when she was staying with the family in their home just outside Verona. Imaging Goethe and Mozart wandering through the formal paths among the statues was magical.

    A stunning garden away from the centre of Verona
    The garden is a moderate size and is situated in a very tranquil area. Includes a view point and a maze to enjoy. We also loved that there were turtles swimming in a fountain. Important to note you have to pay to enter. In my opinion it is a must-visit when in Verona!

    Beautiful and engaging. So much more than a garden!
    Well worth a visit. So much more than a beautiful garden. The turtles (I think that's what they are) in the fountain were a nice surprise. There's plenty to do and see here and would be good for kids of all ages... Statues of gods and goddesses, a maze, turtles in fountains, a climb to a vantage point and then another climb through a tower to some more spectacular views over Verona. On the way out we noticed that we could also go in the villa. Another half hour of beautiful rooms, art and history. There is a free guided tour that is available on a smartphone. Took a bit of fiddling to get it working but the explanations of the history and different garden styles were good and in English.

    Beautiful garden and interesting tour.
    We would highly recommend you visit this beautiful garden in Verona. The entrance ticket includes a self guided tour of the beautiful apartment that is in the original house attached to the garden. It was the most enjoyable attraction that we visited in Verona. Very interesting tour and beautiful views from the top of the garden.

    Classic Italian style garden
    We visited the Veronetta area just across a bridge from the historical centre to see these gardens. The entrance fee was 12 euros each. It was a very enjoyable experience, a tranquil peaceful oasis in the city. A lower and upper garden, with quite alot to see including a Roman collection, mythological figures, old city walls, a pavilion, the mascherone and swimming turtles.

Visited during a hot Veronese day, overall a nice attraction, but not as glamorous as others in Verona.
Unfortunately I only want to indicate the somewhat expensive price of the ticket in relation to what can be admired (but it could be worth it on a clear day for a visit to the city! However, it is not enough as the palace unfortunately due to the vicissitudes of modern history paintings etc. have disappeared)
I recommend better care of the cypresses as they are a little irregular but overall it remains a good garden.
However, applause must be given to whoever created the audio guide and info application and how it works.
Final advice as your audio guide also advises you to look for the secret passage to reach the beautiful view, too bad it is closed and you can reach it with other routes.

Beautiful garden with sculptures, fountains and wooded areas. So far so good, your problem is the €11 entrance fee which is not worth it, perhaps three or four euros less would be more correct. There are not as many sculptures as they sell, the fountains except one of them were dry and taking into account that half of the garden is a wooded area that, with the weather and so on, is cared for "on its own", well... Add that a part was under maintenance and maybe that had a negative influence. The views of the city from above are very good, the toilet is the typical one you find in mountain/picnic areas (full of spiders) and the man at the entrance to the garden was quite stupid, we asked him about the entrance to the apartment which in The theory was included in the entrance and he refused to open it, claiming that it was a private area and could not be visited.

It’s so poorly maintained and almost abandoned! No one cares about us: paying €11 for an uninteresting garden… it’s a far cry from the photos offered. Avoid until the day a serious person takes the trouble to manage this garden properly.

The only positive point to note is the view of the city once you reach the heights of the garden.

What a wonderful green oasis and much larger than you first think.
It has multiple paths that go up the garden and its different levels.
We really enjoyed our visit and you can easily spend a few hours in a beautiful setting.

we had walked around the city all day and were quite full of both buildings and houses. Entering an absolutely beautiful garden, being surrounded by greenery and flowers and hearing birdsong was most welcome. One of the people working here who met us at the entrance was incredibly welcoming and friendly. We recommend going here to everyone! Beautiful in every way.

An experience intensely appreciated, intellectually satisfying and lived, almost savored, in a succession of enchantments. The site is inserted, like an extraordinary jewel, on the edge of the oldest Verona, admirably preserved. The millimetrically accurate management which also involves skilful pedagogical communication, enhancing the historical-cultural virtues of the illustrious palace and the memorable park for the topiary art, is truly to be noted as exemplary. (Here with friends on the afternoon of November 16, 2023)

Really lovely morning spent strolling in the gardens. The €10 entrance fee covers the large garden and the apartment. I’d recommend downloading the audio guide. Lots of short but interesting snippets using the QR codes dotted about brings the garden and apartment to life. Lots of photo opportunities and some places to sit and relax, although more benches at the top in the shade are needed! You can refill your water bottle and use the toilets too if you need to. It’s hard to spot on the street as the entrance is quite hidden but well worth a short walk from the old town of Verona.

This was the very first stop we wanted to make in Verona, and it did not disappoint. The manicured lawns and shrubs, the majestic cypresses and cedars of Lebanon, the brilliant landscape architecture, and the sweeping vista to the "mascherone," were all indescribably beautiful. I loved the sound of piano music accompanying a dance class near the gardens, too. So worth a visit!
