Small-Group Lake Como & Lugano: 2 Countries in 1 Day, Boat Cruise
Overview
Lake Como and Switzerland in one relaxed day — with a very small group of just 12 travelers.
Travel from Milan with a licensed English-speaking guide and reach Lake Como in 40 minutes. From there, the day continues by boat and on foot through some of the lake’s most beautiful corners.
Visit Torno or Cernobbio, elegant lakeside villages with an authentic atmosphere, then enjoy 2 hours of free time in Como to stroll the historic center, relax along the waterfront, and enjoy lunch.
In the afternoon, cross the border into Lugano, Switzerland, where palm trees meet alpine mountains and the lakefront promenade invites an easy walk through the old town.
Where else can you have lunch in Italy, then spend the afternoon in Switzerland — enjoying Swiss chocolate by the lake or even a refreshing swim in the clear alpine water during summer?
All train and boat tickets are pre-booked and perfectly timed, so you don’t need to worry about connections or queues — just show up and enjoy the day.
