3-Day Northern Italy Tour Packages
Quick Northern Italian getaways pack Milan and Lake Como into efficient 3-day tours. You'll start with guided walks through Milan's historic center to see the Duomo, La Scala opera house and also the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Day two takes you by train to Como where you'll explore the lakeside town before catching ferries to Bellagio and Varenna. Our travelers particularly like having time in Bellagio to wander the narrow lanes, visit gardens and find perfect spots for lunch with lake views. While the pace moves quickly, customers tell us the mix of city and lake experiences feels just right for a short trip. The hotels are simple but well-located, making it easy to explore on your own during free time.
