Upon arrival, meet your private licensed tour guide in Como’s historic downtown. Enjoy a guided walking tour that beautifully blends history, culture, and scenic views in this stunning lakeside city, founded by the Romans and still surrounded by medieval walls. As you explore Como, uncover its hidden gems — including the magnificent Gothic and Renaissance-style Cathedral. With your expert guide, you’ll visit the city’s most iconic landmarks, admire significant works of art, and gain insight into the cultural influences that have shaped Como’s unique character over the centuries.

Wine Tasting: Drink Wine As A Local
At the end of your walking tour, indulge in a refined Italian wine tasting at an intimate, historic, family-run wine shop. Discover the stories behind each label and enjoy the opportunity to purchase some carefully selected bottles of local wine to take a piece of Como home with you.

Scenic Brunate Exploration
After some time at leisure for lunch, continue your adventure with a scenic ride aboard the funicular railway to Brunate, a charming hilltop village offering breathtaking views over Lake Como. Stroll through its picturesque streets, visit the beautiful parish church, and take in the elegance of the Art Nouveau villas. Don’t miss the chance to see the iconic Volta Lighthouse Tower — a 29-meter-high monument honoring Alessandro Volta, inventor of the electric torch. At the end of your day, sit back and enjoy the comfort of your private transfer as you return to Milan, enriched by a full day of discovery, beauty, and unforgettable moments.
