Itinerary
• Milan
• Bellagio (3h)
Bellagio is perched at the tip of a promontory where Lake Como splits into two arms, and this magnificent location is not the only reason for its nickname “the pearl”, the history it preserves and the Italian sophistication it represents are only a few of the factors.
• Visit Villa Menzi’s botanical gardens
Experience a mystical visit at Basilica di San Giacomo
Stop by Villa Serbelloni
Try traditional dishes at Ristorante Bilacus
• Varena (2h)
Once you visit Varenna, it will be the first place that pops into your mind when you hear “fishing village”. The colorful houses that cascade down to the water’s edge, with towering green hills dotted with Cypress trees behind create the perfect Varenna summary
