The afternoon will be devoted to discovering the historic city centre, including a visit to the Duomo. With its spires, pinnacles, gables and countless statues, this cathedral, begun in 1396 and completed in 1950, is the emblem of the Lombard capital and one of the tallest and largest cathedrals in the world. The interior, marked by a sober almost austere style, is striking for its monumental dimensions.

Breakfast at the hotel. Departure for Como and guided tour of the city. Built on the shores of Lake Como, the town invites relaxation and the enjoyment of la dolce vita. You will visit in particular Como Cathedral, renowned for its remarkable façade virtuously decorated by the Rodari brothers. The solemn interior features Renaissance decoration set within a Gothic framework: tapestries, paintings by Bernardino Luini and Gaudenzio Ferrari, and a moving Descent from the Cross sculpted by Tomaso Rodari.
Lunch at a restaurant. Return to Como and boat cruise on the lake. You will enjoy this timeless setting where Eden-like gardens, dream villas and picturesque villages line the lake’s shores. Nestled in the Italian Alps, this small corner of paradise, reminiscent of a cinematic backdrop, has fascinated visitors for centuries.
