Lake Como Excursion
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!
Lake Como Excursion
At the designated time, we'll pick you up at one of the meeting points in Milan, and head north towards the Alps by bus. Among its huge mountains lies the Italian Lake District, the highlight of which is easily Lake Como.
After a one-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 urban landscape of the town.
Depending on the season, we'll continue the tour by boarding a boat to navigate the waters of the lake or 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 the selected dates, we'll either go up to Brunate by funicular or visit Bellagio by boat. If you go to Brunate by funicular, you'll have beautiful views of both Como and the western Alps.
On the other hand, 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 at your leisure.
After free time, we'll board the bus that will take us back to Milan.
