Itinerary

San Giovanni Beach Stop 1
San Giovanni is a village located on the western shore of Lake Como in the Lombardy region of northern Italy. Nestled between the towns of Bellagio and Menaggio, San Giovanni offers visitors a peaceful and authentic experience along the picturesque shores of Lake Como. San Giovanni is blessed with stunning views of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks along the lakefront, take boat rides on the lake, or simply relax and take in the tranquil beauty of the water and the landscape.
Pass by
I Giardini Di Villa Melzi Stop 2
The Gardens of Villa Melzi d’Eril, among the most beautiful of Europe, rise along the shores of Lake Como near Bellagio, harmoniously inserted into the hilly landscape between the two branches of the lake. Inside the Gardens stand the Villa, the Chapel and the Orange Greenhouse (or Orangérie), now a Museum of great historical relevance. The Gardens of Villa Melzi d’Eril are a splendid expression of the Neoclassical style, and have been declared a national monument.
Pass by
Bellagio Stop 3
THE PEARL OF THE LAKE, Bellagio is a small jewel located on the promontory that separates the two southern branches of Lake Como, those culminating in the cities of Como and Lecco. It is one of the most glamorous and romantic destinations in Lombardy and Italy. In fact, the well-known “Pearl of Lake Como” is home to a colorful historic center, beautiful gardens (parks of Villa Serbelloni and Villa Melzi), charming neighborhoods (such as Pescallo or San Giovanni), and much more. Its central location makes Bellagio perfect for visiting beautiful surrounding towns such as Varenna, Tremezzina or Menaggio… where you can easily arrive by boat!
Pass by
Villa Carlotta Stop 4
, located on the shores of Lake Como near the charming village of Tremezzo, is a triumph of natural and architectural beauty. It was built in the 17th century by order of the Marquis Giorgio Clerici, in the then fashionable Baroque style and surrounded by a magnificent Italian style garden. Today the villa is an art museum where visitors can admire the many masterpieces purchased by the owners through the centuries, including Antonio Canova’s sculptures and Francisco Hayez’s paintings.
Pass by
Villa Del Balbianello Stop 5
Villa del Balbianello is located on a wooded promontory, offering an enchanted view of Lake Como. This elegant, romantic 18th century mansion and its magnificent garden have hosted writers, scholars and travelers, including Count Guido Monzino, the last owner of the Villa.
