On this excursion to Lake Como, Lugano and Bellagio from Milan we'll travel through the beautiful alpine landscapes of northern Italy and southern Switzerland, visiting two countries in one day!
Lake Como, Lugano & Bellagio Tour
We'll meet at 8:30 am at Piazza Quattro Novembre, and from this point in Milan we'll travel north by bus.
After a 1-hour ride we'll arrive at our first destination, where we'll enjoy a guided tour of Como. On this tour, we'll see the most important monuments of the historic centre of this town such as the the Basilica of San Fedele and the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta.
From here, we'll head to Lugano by bus. In this Swiss town you'll have two hours of free time to have lunch and visit its famous chocolate stores.
After lunch, we'll return to Italy, where we'll pass through Cadenabbia di Griante. This village has hosted distinguished figures such as Queen Victoria I of England and Tsar Nicholas II: In Cadennabia, we'll hop aboard a ferry that'll take us on the 20-minute trip to Bellagio. When we get to this picturesque town, you'll have 1 hour of free time to stroll through its charming streets.
From Bellagio, known as the pearl of Lake Como, we'll continue the trip by bus to the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Ghisallo, a virgin highly revered by cycling enthusiasts. In fact, next to the temple is located the Museum of Cycling. Here you'll be able to see the jerseys and personal belongings of great legends of the sport such as Coppi, Bartali, Merckx, Motta and Pantani.
After visiting the museum, we'll return to the meeting point in Milan, where we'll arrive between 10 and 12 hours after pickup.
