This luxurious 7-day getaway will begin when you land at Milan’s Malpensa Airport. One night in Milan will be an excellent way to begin your journey before transferring to Lake Como.

You will soon arrive in the lakeside city of Como, where you will be provided with the opportunity to explore the beautiful 14th-century Como Cathedral. By the end of your tour, you will feel entirely immersed in the culture of the city.

On the morning of day three, you will set sail on Lake Como in your luxurious private boat, and the gentle breeze will guide you to Lenno. Lenno and a few other communities have come together to form the Tremezzina area, which is ideally situated on the lake. This delightful area will be your home for the night, and you will fully explore Lenno and Tremezzo during a guided tour in the afternoon. Visits to some of the area’s most famous and luxurious villas will highlight your tour, and you will be fascinated by their bountiful gardens and incredible views of the surrounding area. Your journey around Lake Como will continue with a cruise across the lake to the charming village of Bellagio, where you will explore the best areas of Bellagio during an exclusive tour. From the picturesque views to the quaint fishing neighborhoods, every moment of your tour will be memorable and will even feature a visit to a local restaurant for a delightful wine tasting. The wonderful flavors of your favorite blend will still be fresh on your palate as another fantastic day comes to a close.

After the lovely sunrise on the fifth day, you will venture to Menaggio, where you will bask in the scenic views from its promenade before discovering its wonderful boutiques and delicious restaurants. The following morning, you will sail to your final lakeside destination of Varenna, where you will indulge in a tour of the Church of San Giorgio and beautiful Villa Monastero before an authentic meal at a local restaurant culminates your final evening in Italy.
