Fun outings
Gardaland Amusement Park
Opening Hours: See on their webpage
Gardaland is an amusement park for all ages, but especially for the little ones. They have many good rides. Summers and holidays it gets crowded, so try to go off season. Being near Lake Garda is a good way to do something for the kids and something for mom and dad too.
Sea Life
The Gardaland SEA LIFE has a small marine world. It's a nice visit if you're already spending a few days in the Garda area.
Zoo, Safari and Dino park
Opening Hours: See on their webpage
This is a modern zoological institution with a wonderful collection of happy and healthy animals. It is also near Lake Garda. Their website is full of excellent information and very useful in planning your trip.
Genoa Aquarium
Opening hours: See on their webpage
The mission of the Acquario di Genova is to involve the largest public on conservation of natural environments. This is a modern aquarium rebuilt in 2001 with a wonderful collection and a few unique experiences like spending the night with the sharks. Make sure to go off season too as they do NOT handle crowds efficiently.
San Pe Agrigelateria
Autumn Hours: Friday - Sunday and Holidays: 10:30 - 24
This is a farm that makes superbe ice cream. They have their own cows for the milk and they grow everything they can for their ingredients. It's no wonder Eataly has chosen this agrigelateria for their ice cream corner. This farm has a huge playground, animals to see and a big seating area. They handle birthday parties and give tours on Sundays of their milk cows.
