Como

Como is the capital and main city of the area around the lake, the point where one usually arrives as the first destination to then explore villages, nature and historic villas. Como is ideal as a base to stay for one or more nights or as starting and arrival point for those who decide to visit the lake for a day. Don't miss the narrow streets in the historic center, the walks on the lake and the viewpoint from Brunate, reachable by funicular.

Cernobbio

Cernobbio, the first town you come across from Como going north towards Switzerland, has always been a famous tourist destination. The center of Cernobbio is characterized by a square and a very charming lakeside promenade. In Cernobbio there are two of the best-known villas on Lake Como. Villa Erba is a villa that was built at the beginning of the 1900s by the noble Erba family, surrounded by a huge park, and today hosts an exhibition centre. Villa d'Este is today one of the most well-known 5-star hotels in all of Italy. The hotel maintains a very classic style, in its architecture and service: entering this luxurious residence feels like taking a leap into the past.

Q: Will I get seasick on Lake Como : Private Express Tour – Villas and Best Spot Photos?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
