More info about travel to the Italian Lakes: Lake Como — lined with palm trees and elegant pastel-colored villas, crowned by snowcapped mountains, and criss-crossed by a fleet of ferries and hydrofoils — is a great place to take a break from the intensity of Italy that one finds further south. Bellagio is a classy combination of Old World elegance and new world luxury. Varenna has a romantic waterside promenade, a tiny harbor, and inviting narrow lanes.

INCREDIBLE HOLIDAY ON LAKE COMO - Italy travel guide video
Looking for an incredible holiday in Italy? Lake Como is literally one of the most beautiful places to travel to, so take a look in my Lake Como video guide all about the lake and hiking in the surrounding mountain range.
This part of Italy is packed with alleyways and waterside towns to get lost in, ferry rides across the lake, eating incredible Italian food and of course, mountain hiking and trekking in the Swiss and Italian Alps (which is only an hour away). These for us were the best parts of Lake Como.
It's an insane place to explore for those who are looking to discover a truly native side of Italy with few tourists, epic scenery and beautiful towns and villages.
We stayed in a quiet village called Civenna, which is just a 10-minute drive from Bellagio and the ferry port we used to travel across the other side to head to the Alps.
I got some amazing drone footage as well of outstanding views, and photos for my blog.
We were there for 9 days before we headed back to Milan to get our flight back.

TRAVEL TIP: How to Relax in LAKE COMO, ITALY
// ABOUT //
A relaxing week in Northern Italy at Lake Como in the towns of Varenna and Bellagio. This was just what we needed after two months of aggressive sightseeing in Europe. We took a 2 hour and some change train ride from Milano to Varenna. There isn’t a fast train option; therefore you don’t need to book your train in advanced as the train is a regional one. I found booking regional trains online actually cost more than paying upon arrival. And the seating is first come first serve! Being high season, lodging centrally in the lake front town of Varenna was out of our price range so we stepped a few minutes drive outside of Varenna and into the mountains of Perledo. Our terrace looked directly over Lake Como and the view was breathtaking. Walking into town every day was a scenic downhill stroll and an uphill taxi return for 10 euros. Follow the Rick Steves walking tour of Varenna and find yourself at the end of this tour on a tiny beach on the lake. Pack a picnic and soak in the sun. Eat and drink your way back through the town, walking of course. While we were recommended to visit Bellagio, it wasn’t our favourite place to see. We found it too ritzy for our taste. Instead, perhaps a ferry boat ride to Menaggio instead, next time. However, no matter where you are on Lake Como, you’ll find yourself in a state of bliss. Each town has a boat load of history, charm and delicious pasta and wine. Lake Como is the perfect quiet getaway in Italy!
Travel tips:
✔ Don’t book the train in advance (to avoid extra online fees)
✔ Stay in Varenna (it has the most charm)
✔ Book lodging several months in advanced (especially in high season to avoid inflated prices)
✔ Be open to hopping around on the ferries (it’s fun and the three main towns to see are in a triangle connected by lake)
✔ Eat at the train station in Varenna (it was one of our favourite restaurants believe it or now!)
✔ Bring walking shoes (there is a lot to see)
✔ Be leery of restaurants on the water (off the beaten track restaurants are much cheaper and more authentic serving)
