Ciao, buongiorno! My name is Alessandra and I'm a true local in Como area, as I was born and grew...

Experience the best of Lake Como in just one day! This tour combines the visit of the charming city of Como with a 2 hour lake cruise that will take you to Bellagio, a quaint village known as "the pearl of the lake". We'll begin the day walking in Como to discover its highlights: the Cathedral, piazza Volta, San Fedele church and the ancient walls. We'll board a slow ferry and take all the time to discover Lake Como and its shores, with the green mountains falling into water and the famous villas. My favourite is midway between Como and Bellagio: its name is Balbianello and you might recognize here a Star Wars location! We'll get off in Bellagio, which I like for the views, the quaint and challenging staircase alleys and the endless choice of silk scarves in shops. I will share with you all the beauties and stories that Como has to tell! Quite often, I get the impression that travelers didn't expect this city to be so pleasant! Let's see what you think after taking this tour!

This is mainly a walking tour. For the cruise, we'll use the Ferry system of Lake Como. Details here: http://www.navigazionelaghi.it/eng/c_flotta1.asp?ID=10 On our way to Bellagio we'll get on a slow ferry: a slow sailing is the best way to see the shores and have time to enjoy the landscape and the villas. To return to Como, you may choose to take the hydrofoil, which is considerably faster: instead of 2 hrs, only 50 minutes/ 1 hour maximum. Requires prebooking and a supplement (4.40 €)
