Italy: Lake Como Bellagio Varenna Tremezzo

Buongiorno!

It is always the right time to visit Italy, especially the Lake Como area. Lake Como is the third largest lake and sits at the foot of the Alps. It is among the most romantic and picturesque scenery in the world and is home to some of the most stunning views. It is perfect for a destination wedding and honeymoon, an anniversary celebration, a romantic getaway and even a family vacation.

Como, Bellagio, Tremezzo, Varenna

Como’s city center is full of little streets with great shops and family owned restaurants. You can opt to take a ferry to Bellagio, known as the Pearl of Lake Como, Tremezzo and Varenna. These towns are known for their cobbled streets lined with colorful houses and beautiful views.

In Bellagio, visit Salita Serbolleni. It is their most famous street and perfect dining Al fresco, shopping or a still. Varenna is one of the most typical and peaceful towns on the lake. Villa Monastero and Riva Grande are two sights that cannot be missed. Across the lake is Tremezzo, known for Villa Balbianello, where Star Wars and Casino Royale were filmed. Many couples choose Villa Balbianello for their wedding destination location.

My recommendation for an ultimate experience is to charter a private boat for the day, stopping at each village at your leisure, having lunch overlooking the lake and enjoying a champagne cocktail on your return sail to your hotel or private villa. It will be magical.

Not sure where to stay, or how to get around, where to eat or what to do? I can customize your trip to ensure that all aspects of your trip are covered. The possibilities are endless from boat excursions, nature walks, beaches or live like a local. Put your trust in me and I can make your Italian adventure is one for the books.

What is the best time to visit?

The best time to visit is April - June and September - October when the weather is mild and not too many people. The summer months are very hot and humid and very crowded with tourists.

What foods or drinks should you try?

Typical foods in Lake Como are Missoltino, a sun-dried fish; Pizzoccheri, buckwheat pasta; pan de como, Como’s signature bread; and cutizza, nicknamed the “cake of the poor” - a type of pancake. Make sure to order an aperitif watching the sunset before dinner.

My Promise

My promise to you is: I will take care of all the planning details from “take-off to home sweet home”, so you can enjoy every minute in Lake Como stress free. Contact me today to begin your next unforgettable travel journey.

Great trip to Spain!

Reviewed By Frank - Fort Lauderdale , FL | Traveled to Madrid ~ Spain ~ Europe

Lillian was amazing to work with. She was very attentive and available whenever I had a question about our trip to Spain. My wife and I had a great time in Madrid. Everything was perfect from the luxury hotel, to the city walking tour, and even the recommendation to wear comfortable shoes, to eating delicious Spanish food. We would definitely work with Lillian again in the future. We highly recommend her!

I would recommend this agent to my family and friends

A Dream Come True!

Reviewed By Brooke - Chicago, IL | Traveled to Sorrento ~ Italy ~ Europe

Lily is both a calming force and a powerhouse travel pro. An avid traveler herself, she knows her stuff, yet presents the options without the overwhelm and stress that oftentimes accompanies trip planning. Lily skillfully crafted our family vacation to the Amalfi coast that had both interactive experiences and days of leisure. There's something so comforting having all of the minute details planned so you can just enjoy your time. Traveling to Europe as a family of 5 is not easy...rooms are small, and often do not accommodate us well. Lily chose the perfect hotels that were both comfortable and beautiful. She also selected incredible excursions for us to enjoy as a family that kept things interesting, fun and stress fee! I highly recommend Lily for any of your upcoming travel needs!

An unforgettable trip!

Reviewed By Isaac - Doral, FL | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe

My wife and I reached out to Lilian with about 3 months of a time frame to book an Italian getaway. Despite short notice, she paid exceptional attention to details and took the time to explore what we wanted out of the trip. She expertly curated the best itinerary that was perfectly tailored to our interests and stayed within our budget. Two of my favorite parts of our trip to Italy was the private boat tour along Lake Como and the safari ride along vineyards in Tuscany! Overall, she provided us with an unforgettable experience and memories that will last a lifetime.

I would recommend this agent to my family and friends

Lillian Cedeno responded:

Can't wait to work with you again!

The Most Unforgettable Trip Ever!

Reviewed By Gabriella - Miami, Florida | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe

It was my first time in Italy and it was amazing!! It was everything I expected and more. We visited Milan, Rome, Modena, Capri, and Positano (Amalfi Coast). Lillian took care of all the trip details, from first-class airfare, private airport transfer, 5-star hotels, private excursions, and even dinner reservations. We had an olive oil tasting, a boat ride along the Amalfi Coast, a balsamic vinegar tasting, a tour of each place, and lunch at a local farmhouse. I highly recommend Lillian, as she did not overlook anything. I would use her services on future trips. Lillian truly made my first time visiting Italy an unforgettable experience!
