We'd planned to take a bus to Riva at the top of Lake Garda. At Hotel Royal Village in Limone they gave us the times and told us the bus left from the tourist information office. The hotel staff checked to see if we knew where the tourist office was but we'd seen it in the town near the shore of Lake Garda. After a lazy breakfast in the hotel we left with just enough time to catch the bus.
It was only when we got down to the lake that we realised there was no way a bus could get down these tiny streets. We checked the map and found another tourist information office on the Gardesana Occidentale road, above the old town in Limone, back up the hill where we'd come from and not far from our hotel. With no chance of catching the bus we decided to go up Lake Garda to Riva by boat.
This site is being developed so please be patient with us. We'd love to get back to take more pictures of Riva del Garda to do the beautiful town a little more justice. Visiting Riva for only a few hours on an unusually rainy day is perhaps not fair!
Eventually we hope to carry advertising on this site from hotels and tour operators, travel companies and other companies linked to the hotel, travel, leisure and tourism industry.
We love Lake Garda in Italy, particularly Limone sul Garda, Riva del Garda, Malcesine,
Lazise, Bardolino and the town of Garda itself. When we get the chance we're hoping
to explore more of the towns and villages round Lake Garda, towns like Desenzano,
Padenghe, Moniga, Manerba, San Felice del Benaco, Salo, Gardone Riviera, Toscolano-Maderno,
Gargnano, Torbole and Sirmione.
There are still loads of beautiful places we haven't seen and if advertising on this web site from hotels, tour operators and travel companies will help pay for us to explore further we won't be complaining. We'll post any new photos or pictures of Lake Garda on this site.
If you think any of the data in the site is wrong, or if you have problems with the site or if you can see ways we could improve it, please email us. Thanks!

Though Jac and I would love to be able to travel more and take more photos, for the
time being the day job has to take priority. We run a small company servicing, fault-
In what remains of our spare time we've also started to put together a guide to shower types, gravity showers and power showers which is at powershowerguide.com
It's still in a rudimentary state but will hopefully soon have more technical information provided by shower manufacturers.
And then there's lovekin.net, a web site where we record some of the fault-
