About the tour

Itinerary

Lake Como day trip from Milan

The tour will begin with your private driver collecting you from your hotel in Milan (another custom location in the area can be agreed) with a luxury sedan or minivan. Discover the beauty of the most elegant and third-largest lake in Italy with its incredible Mediterranean and Alpine scenery, spectacular views and authentic villas.

Within an hour, you will reach Lake Como and continue driving along the panoramic lake road SS340 to reach your first tour site: Villa Balbianello. The property was lastly owned by the Italian explorer and philanthropist Guido Monzino, who donated the building and gardens to the FAI (National Trust of Italy). The Villa now hosts an extremely beautiful, rich and complete museum of Monzino’s expeditions and also includes many art masterpieces of his collection.

Your driver will then take you to Villa Carlotta, between the villages of Tremezzo and Cadenabbia. Visit the Villa’s museum and the colorful Italian botanical gardens that line the lake.

After that, together with you personal driver, you will proceed boarding on a car-ferry that in just 10 minutes will take you to the world-famous town of Bellagio.

The perfect place to enjoy some free time browsing around the local shops, having some genuine lunch, just in front of a stunning view of Lake Como. The village dates back to the 7th Century A.D., and it develops on a narrow peninsula surrounded by waters of Lake Como.

After Bellagio, the tour will conclude and your private driver will take you back to your hotel in Milan or other desired location.

Please note that Villa Balbianello is open to public every working-day, excluding Mondays and Wednesdays. In addition from October to March some of the villas may be closed.
