After breakfast at your hotel, we recommend a trip on the ferry which in less than an hour will take you to Bellagio,the world renowned "Pearl of Lake Como" thanks to its strategic position rising on the promontory of the two branches of the lake: the Como branch and the Lecco branch. Bellagio is also famous for the majestic villas that dominate the stunning scenery. First among them is the 14th century Villa Serbelloni, which faces a huge park and nowadays is a luxury hotel. Another villa worth visiting is the neoclassical Villa Melzi with its very beautiful gardens including the first example of an English style garden in Italy.
