Overview

Your experience begins in the heart of Varenna, where you will meet near the ferry pier. From there, a short five-minute walk leads to the entrance of a historic private villa.

Once inside, you’ll stroll through a beautiful terraced garden filled with flowers, cypress trees, and lush greenery. A gentle walk of about 15–20 minutes takes you through the garden terraces carved into the hillside.

At the top, you’ll reach a secluded garden viewpoint overlooking Lake Como — a perfect setting for photos and quiet moments away from the busy village below.

In a private shaded corner of the garden, a carefully prepared picnic table awaits. Each table is elegantly decorated with Italian tableware and refined details.

Guests will enjoy a curated picnic basket with local cheeses, cold appetizers, seasonal fruit, small desserts, and your choice of wine or prosecco selected in advance.

You will then have time to relax, enjoy the setting, and savor the picnic in complete privacy.

What to expect

Escape the crowds of Varenna and step into a hidden private villa garden overlooking Lake Como. This exclusive experience invites you behind doors normally closed to visitors, where terraced gardens, cypress trees, and Mediterranean plants create a peaceful oasis above the lake.

Over the course of three relaxing hours, you’ll discover a secluded garden setting designed for intimate moments and elegant celebrations. A beautifully styled picnic awaits in a shaded corner of the garden beneath olive and quince trees, with breathtaking views of Lake Como.

This experience is perfect for romantic dates, marriage proposals, small celebrations, or travelers looking for a refined and private moment in one of Lake Como’s most charming locations.
