29 days in Como Itinerary

Known for its idyllic location on the shores of Lake Como and at the foot of the Alps, Como is one of northern Italy's most popular tourist destinations.

Venture out of the city with trips to Tremezzina (Villa Carlotta & Villa del Balbianello), Bellagio (i Giardini di Villa Melzi, Kayaking & Canoeing, & more) and Palazzo Borromeo (in Isola Bella). There's lots more to do: take in the architecture and atmosphere at Cathedral of Como (Duomo), contemplate the waterfront views at Lake Orta, admire the landmark architecture of Villa Olmo, and grab your bike and head to Anything But Work.

To see more things to do, maps, and tourist information, refer to the Como road trip planning website .

If you are flying in from Germany, the closest major airports are Malpensa International Airport, Milano Linate Airport and Il Caravaggio International Airport. In May in Como, expect temperatures between 25°C during the day and 13°C at night. Finish up your sightseeing early on the 20th (Sat) so you can travel back home.
