Activity itinerary

Villa Troubetzkoy

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
Villa Cagni Troubetzkoy is a charming historic residence located in Blevio, overlooking the waters of Lake Como. Built around 1850 by Russian Prince Alexander Troubetzkoy, the Villa owes its double name to the famous Italian admiral and explorer Umberto Cagni, who later resided there. In addition to its elegant architecture, the estate has always enchanted with its wonderful terraced botanical gardens that gently descend to the water, offering a truly spectacular and romantic view

Villa Pliniana

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
Villa Pliniana is a magnificent and mysterious historic residence located in Torno, in an isolated inlet of Lake Como. Built in 1573, it takes its name from a peculiar source of intermittent water, already described in Roman times by Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger, which flows right inside the courtyard of the structure. Immersed in dense vegetation and overlooking the water, the Villa is famous for its romantic and somewhat melancholic charm, which over the centuries has bewitched illustrious guests such as Napoleon, Lord Byron, Percy Shelley and Gioachino Rossini.

The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Lago di Como

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
Mandarin Oriental, Lake Como is a luxury five-star Resort located in Blevio, housed in the magnificent Villa Roccabruna, a nineteenth-century building that was once the striking home of the famous opera singer Giuditta Pasta. Nestled in a lush botanical park that slopes down to the water, the hotel combines the historic charm of neoclassical architecture with contemporary design and oriental hospitality. It is particularly renowned for its spectacular floating pool on the lake and the atmosphere of refined and exclusive tranquility.

Orrido di Nesso

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
The Orrido di Nesso is one of the most iconic and evocative natural spectacles of Lake Como, located in the homonymous and picturesque village. It is a deep and narrow rocky gorge where the streams Tuf and Nosè join, plunging between the rocks with a thunderous waterfall that flows directly into the lake waters. This charming canyon is overlooked by the romantic Ponte della Civera, an ancient stone donkey-backed bridge from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view, so picturesque that it has enchanted even Leonardo da Vinci, who mentioned it in his Codex Atlanticus in the past.

Villa Le Fontanelle

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
Villa Fontanelle is an elegant neoclassical residence located in Moltrasio, which has become legendary worldwide for being the beloved residence of the great designer Gianni Versace. Purchased and lavishly restored by Versace in the late 1970s, the Villa transformed into a gilded retreat and exclusive gathering place for international stars and illustrious friends such as Elton John, Madonna and Princess Diana. With its impeccable gardens and direct views of the lake, this estate represents the perfect combination of the historic charm of Lake Como and the glamour of haute couture, still retaining a magical and unmistakable aura.

Grill di Villa D’Este

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
Villa d'Este is one of the most iconic and prestigious places on Lake Como, located in the elegant setting of Cernobbio. Built in 1568 as a lavish summer residence for Cardinal Ptolemy Gallius, it was transformed in the late nineteenth century into a luxurious five-star hotel, becoming since then the favourite destination of royalty, aristocrats and Hollywood stars. The estate is an absolute masterpiece of Renaissance architecture, surrounded by a centuries-old park where a magnificent mosaic nymphaeum stands out and famous for its unmistakable floating pool that seems to blend directly with the waters of the lake.

Villa Erba

  • 2m
  • Admission ticket included
Villa Erba is a sumptuous nineteenth-century residence located in Cernobbio, set in a vast and magnificent centuries-old botanical park overlooking Lake Como. Built in the late nineteenth century by the wealthy Erba family of pharmaceutical industrialists, the Villa is intimately linked to the figure of the great director Luchino Visconti, who spent the summers of his childhood here and drew inspiration for his future works. Today, with its majestic frescoed rooms and impressive architecture, it is a prestigious convention centre and a coveted film set, chosen even by Hollywood for famous films such as Ocean's Twelve.
