A feast for the senses, Lake Como, or Lago di Como in Italian, is one of the world’s most romantic travel destinations, and has been popular since Roman times.

Nestled in the Italian Lake district, and surrounded by hills and mountains, Lake Como is just across the border from Switzerland and only a 45 minute drive from Milan and three major airports.  Charming towns and villages dot the lake’s perimeter.  These are linked by ferries that are handy for public transportation and a boon for sightseeing and photography.

Perhaps no other region in Italy offers the variety of cultural activities, delectable cuisine and splendid scenery as Lago di Como.
