The highlights of Como: Half Day Private Tour

A walk around Como to discover this beautiful city

The Lake Como is one of the most beautiful areas in Italy as it boasts breathtaking landscapes, historic and picturesque towns, elegant villas, Mediterranean-style gardens, a mild and pleasant climate. All these beautiful characteristics were already known in Roman times when Como was one of the main centers along Via Regina, a historic route that used to link the Po Valley with the northern areas of the Alps.

A nice walk throughout the city of Como starts from the beautiful public garden near the lake, with an imposing Memorial to the Fallen of the Great War and Tempio Voltiano, built in remembrance of Alessandro Volta, inventor of the electric batteries who was born in this city.

After a pleasant walk along the lakeshore, we can reach the city center, walking along the quaint streets of Como, the Basilica di San Fedele, the Civic Museums, the Art Gallery, Piazza Vittoria, and Porta Torre.

We will conclude our tour with the Basilica di Sant’Abbondio, a masterpiece of the Romanesque style.
