Lake Como Bellagio and Varenna Private Tour by Car from Milan
This private tour brings together the lake’s three big names in one day: Villa del Balbianello, Bellagio & Varenna. Morning begins on Como’s lakefront, then leaves the busy shore road for the hills and the Ghisallo pass, where a small chapel to the patron saint of cyclists, hung with the bikes of Italian champions, looks straight down on the water. From there the road winds down to Bellagio, set on the point where the lake splits in two, with free time to climb its stepped lanes, browse the silk shops and stop for a coffee on the lakefront. Take ferry for the crossing to Varenna, a fishing village of coloured houses and a lakeside promenade. The star of the day Villa del Balbianello comes last, this lakeside villa where Anakin & Padmé married in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones & where James Bond recovered in Casino Royale. Reach the villa by boat from Lenno, then explore the terraced gardens and the famous loggia, with the lake on three sides and the late-afternoon sun on the water.
