Overview

Escape Milan for a full day on Lake Como, visiting three of its most beloved towns: Como, Bellagio, and Varenna. Travel by air-conditioned coach and enjoy a scenic boat cruise across the lake, with views of grand villas and mountains rising from the water.

Start in Como, where an easy walking tour reveals elegant lakefront promenades and historic piazzas before you board the boat. Next comes Bellagio, nicknamed the "Pearl of Lake Como": wander its cobbled lanes, browse boutique shops, and enjoy free time for a lakeside lunch.

The final stop is Varenna, a quieter fishing village with pastel houses, narrow alleys, and postcard-worthy lake views.

With an official English- and Spanish-speaking guide (plus audio guides in French, German, Italian, and Portuguese), hassle-free transport, and free time to explore, this tour makes it easy to experience Lake Como's highlights in a single day from Milan.
