Locanda La Tirlindana is one of the most scenic spots for a fantastic lunch or fresh & indulgent dinner on the shores of Lake Como. Make sure to get the speciality of the house: ravioli with mascarpone & lemon.

Isola Comincia is the only island in Lake Como, belonging to the Brera Academy. Though the taxi boat service is only open on a Saturday and Sunday, groups can visit during the week by appointment. Come for the lush greenery and to explore the ruins of the St. Euphemia Church.

Perched on the edge of the wooded peninsula on Lake Como, the elegant, romantic, 18th-century mansion of Villa del Balbianello and its peaceful gardens have, over the centuries, hosted writers, scholars, travellers, and… Anakin and Padme. You may recognise the panoramic lakeside terrace from Star Wars Episode II!

This intimate, family-run restaurant in the mountains above Tremezzo serves traditional country fare and cucina di montagna (mountain cuisine). For those adventurers out there, walk from Tremezzo - though be prepared, it is a hike! The sweeping views, and delicious food make it well worth the trip however!
