The Palazzi, fine architecture and squares reflect the wealth of the Dukes of Gonzaga Family. The town is also famous as the birthplace of Virgil, and of artists Mantegna and Donatello. We re-join the boat for lunch and a cruise to Governolo before leaving for the beautiful medieval town of Soave, famous for its dry, still wines.
