Paddle in Italy!

This exciting tour to Italy will whisk you into a world of immense beauty, culture, history, and most importantly, paddling!

Your Italian adventure begins in Verona, home to legendary Romeo and Juliet and the glistening shores of Lake Garda, Italy's largest lake.  Verona's center is a labyrinth of winding narrow streets that combine the old atmosphere with new, creating a unique appeal.  Contemporary stores fill the historic buildings with modern products while the architecture echoes back to earlier centuries.

Enjoy a once in a lifetime experience paddling a dragon boat in the Grand Canal in Venice! Meet paddlers from around the world and enjoy friendly competition on the water as the Arizona Gila Dragons competes in the 9th Venice International Dragon Boat Festival. Then, participate in the Vogaloga, a celebration of all rowers and paddlers from dragon boats to gondolas.
