Overview of your Como tour:

Do you know why the castle of Baradello has always been so loved by the locals? It’s not hard to say once you’ve been there: it’s not far from the city, you can get there with an easy walk in a protected natural area and last but not least, there is an incredible view on the surroundings! Built , immediately after the fall of the Roman Empire, as a watchman of the city, it was destroyed and rebuilt in the Middle Ages. Destroyed again, what is perfectly preserved is the tower from which we will enjoy an incredible view. In its stones we can literally read a piece of European history. I’ll teach you how to do it and you’ll find out how easy it is once you figure out the trick! Inside the tower there is a museum showing all the finds that were found in the excavation area during the last restoration dating back to Roman times. We will go on the roof of the tower, climbing metal and wood stairs, pretend to have gone back in time, to see if the enemy comes from the Alps, from the lake or from Milan.

Your Como tour itinerary

I'll meet you in a Como and, in about 10 minutes by public bus, we will get to the stone paved path that, in about 30/40 minutes walking, will lead us to the castle. The visit of the ruins and of the inside of the tower, takes about one hour, but once you come out of the walls you can relax a little bit in the parade ground, overlooking the city and the lake. We will then go back by a different path, where I can show you some other interesting things. In about 1 hour we will get just outside the city centre. In case of additional requests I'll adjust the tour according to your needs.
