Upon your arrival at the Malpensa airport, our driver will be there to welcome you and transport you to your hotel. You will be spending the night in Milan, ready to start your exciting adventure the following day.
Begin your day with a breakfast at your hotel before embarking on a memorable adventure around the city.

You’ll explore a number of fascinating locations, including the renowned Duomo, Sforza Castle, Colonne di San Lorenzo, and Scala Opera House. You won’t want to miss the chance to visit the stunning Duomo Cathedral, the largest church in all of Italy, which is conveniently located near your hotel. Take a stroll through the 19th-century glass vaulted shopping arcade, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, where you’ll find fashionable shops and cafes. At the end of the gallery, you’ll come across Milan’s world-famous opera house, La Scala Theatre, which has hosted some of the most iconic musicians and opera singers of all time, like Pavarotti, Maria Callas, and Giuseppe Verdi. In the afternoon, you’ll have free time to explore at your own pace. Spend the night in Milan.
Are you ready for a relaxing day in the beautiful Lake Como area? Starting with breakfast at your centrally located hotel, our driver will pick you up and take you on a scenic one-hour drive along the panoramic lake road SS 340 until you reach your first tour stop, Villa Balbianello.
Villa Balbianello is a stunning property that was last owned by the Italian explorer and philanthropist Guido Monzino. The villa now houses a museum of Monzino’s expeditions, including many art masterpieces from his collection. It was also used as a movie set for James Bond: Casino Royale and Star Wars: Episode II films.
Lake Como, the third-largest lake in Europe, is encompassed by breathtaking alpine vistas and charming villages, renowned for their quality silk production.
After exploring Villa Balbianello, you will proceed with a car-ferry ride to Bellagio, one of the most famous towns on the lake. You will have some free time in town to enjoy the stunning panorama, shop at world-class stores, and admire the centuries-old architecture.
In the afternoon, your private driver will take you back to your hotel in Milan. Please note that a moderate amount of walking (15 min) is involved to and from the car parking to Villa Balbianello.
It’s time to say goodbye to Milan, but not before enjoying a delightful breakfast at your hotel. Our driver will be waiting for you to take you to the airport for your departure. This concludes our services.
