A chance to see 3 of the most beautiful lakes in 2 countries!

To the north of Lake Maggiore you will pass the mystical floating castles of Cannero whilst travelling towards the snow-capped peaks of the Swiss Alps and across to Lake Lugano.

 

Lugano city nestles between the peaks of S. Salvatore and Monte Bré and looks out over the celestial blue waters of the Lake. Imagine taking a stroll along the palm and cypress tree lined promenade which gives the city a truly Mediterranean feel. Head for the Palazzo Civico to feel the hustle and bustle of the city centre – this area is brimming with restaurants and boutiques.

 

Lake Como has to be one of the most spectacular lakes in Italy – sparkling waters surrounded by dramatic mountains. Here there is the opportunity to visit Villa Carlotta where every ceiling is a masterpiece of frescoes and where, in the gardens, there are over 500 species from giant sequoia to camellias. Como itself is a modern city steeped in history. See the 14th century cathedral or hunt out some bargains in the vast array of silk shops.
