On this excursion from Milan, we'll enter the Lake District at the foot of the Italian Alps. Depending on the season, we'll take a cruise to Bellagio or take a funicular up to Brunate - unforgettable!
Tour Details
At the designated time, we'll depart from the center of Milan, and head north towards the Alps by bus. Among its vast mountains lies the Italian Lake District, the highlight of which is easily Lake Como.
After a 1-hour drive, we'll reach the historic center of Como. There we'll begin to admire the turquoise-blue domes of the Como Cathedral, an intense color that stands out amidst the town's urban landscape.
Depending on the season, we'll continue the tour by boarding a boat to navigate the waters of the lake or by taking a stroll along the harbor, which boasts fantastic views of Lake Como. If the day is clear, we may even be able to make out the Swiss alpine mountains just across the lake!
Then, depending on availability, we'll either go up to Brunate by funicular or visit Bellagio by boat. If we go to Brunate by funicular, you'll have beautiful views of both Como and the western Alps.
If you take the cruise to Bellagio, you'll explore one of the most beautiful villages in northern Italy. Did you know that it was a source of inspiration for countless artists? In both cases, you'll have free time to visit Brunate or Bellagio at your leisure.
After free time, we'll board the bus that will take us back to the meeting point Milan, where this tour will be brought to an end.
