Overview

A self-guided walking game through Verona's old town with a twist on the city's most famous story: Dr Elena Capuleti, a descendant of Juliet, hands you a time machine and a mission to give Romeo and Juliet the ending they never had. You follow her on your phone from one stop to the next, and each place hides a puzzle that changes the plot. Play at your own pace.

The app shares the real history behind the legend as you go: the courtyard of Juliet's House and its bronze statue, Piazza delle Erbe, the old market square once nicknamed the painted city, Piazza dei Signori and the Scaligeri who ruled from it, their ladder-crested tombs beside Santa Maria Antica, the Roman gate of Porta Leoni and the 12th-century walls that still frame the centre. Hints are built in; chat support answers 24/7.

The route starts at Piazza Bra by the Arena and ends at Juliet's Tomb. About 2.7 km on flat streets, 90 to 120 minutes. Easy, and made for couples, families and first-time visitors.
