Charm of the Lakes & Mountains
It would be difficult to imagine a more relaxing holiday than a stay by the Italian lakesides and these can be explored on one of our tranquil retreats - Lake Como and Lake Maggiore or on our Italian Lakes & Mountains holiday, which includes a stay on all three Italian lakes. Lake Maggiore, renowned for its majestic beauty, is sheltered by the mountains of the Alps and Pre-Alps, allowing luxuriant and exotic flora to bloom on the Borromean Islands of Isola Bella and Isola Madre. Locarno at the northern tip of Maggiore, shaded by palm and orange trees, with the Piazza Grande is a perfect place to relax and unwind in the outdoor cafés. Lake Como offers the stimulating variety of tiny ports, charming villages and exotic gardens bordering the water. As a hideaway in the past for the Milanese aristocracy, one can still glimpse the many imposing villas lining the lakeshore. Lake Garda has a thriving display of lemons, olives and semi-tropical flowers climbing among the picturesque buildings on its west banks and the mountains of Monte Baldo in the east. Explore promenades, an abundance of cafés and boutique-style shops on our Lake Garda and the Dolomites tour. We are also pleased to offer our multi-centre holiday, Lake Geneva & Lake Como featuring the Glacier Express, which links these two lakes in Switzerland and Italy by the Glacier Express rail trip, recently voted as one of the greatest and most spectacular rail journeys in the world.
