Discover the charming natural beauties, the 16th century villas, late Baroque, and neoclassical estates blended with venerable lake front towns. In ancient times, poets from Virgil and Catullus to Tennyson and Longfellow have raved about the lakes of Lombardy, but it is impossible to do justice when describing the marvelous beauty of Lake Como without visiting and above all understanding it.
Lake Como is one of the most beautiful natural lakes in the North of Italy, it is approximately 28 miles long and never more than two miles wide. Located in Lombardy, at the foot of the Alps, it is close to Switzerland at about 70 miles away from Milan. The comfortable temperature of the ambiance from May to October, the gentle climate and the glorious landscape enables visitor to enjoy breath-taking vistas as well as the characteristic mountains surrounding the Lake seem to be intentionally conceived for fabulous sightseeing tours.
Private boats and ferries travel up and down, offering views of the villas such as:
- Villa D'Este
- Villa Del Balbianello
- Villa Pizzo
- Villa Carlotta.
We'll have lunch in a typical panoramic restaurant to taste the traditional recipes of the local cuisine.
