Lake Maggiore
Lake Maggiore is Italy's second-largest lake, and one of its most popular. It's a long, thin lake on the south side of the Alps, shared by Italy’s Piedmont and Lombardy regions as well as Switzerland’s Ticino canton. It's noted for its picturesque surroundings of verdant mountains. Some of the towns along the shores of Lake Maggiore which are worth noting are Stresa, Cannobio, Arona, Verbania, and Baveno. The three tiny, but popular Borromean Islands, with their terraced gardens and aristocratic villas, can be reached by boat from Stresa, one of the larger lake towns.

Lake Como
Situated less than an hour by train or car from Milan, Como is a remarkable destination, not only for being a backdrop for one of the Star Wars movies, but more importantly for its beauty. The dramatic scenery of the azure lake makes this little town a romantic destination rivaling Venice. All romance aside, Como is a serene place to escape from the madness of modern life, where visitors can savor every moment.
Visit and explore the amazing city of Bellagio, Como, Villa Serbelloni, Villa Carlotta, Villa d`Este, Villa del Balbianello, Menaggio, Varenna and so much more. -
Lake Garda
Formed by glaciers, Lake Garda, the largest and easternmost of the lakes, is one of the most beautiful places in Italy. Its exotic landscape has attracted the poet Gabriele d'Annunzio, whose villa near Gardone is one of the area's major attractions. Visitors come here to swim, windsurf, and enjoy the relaxing ambience of Garda's many pleasant lakeside resorts. The ancient fortified town of Sirmione, located on the south of the lake is one particularly popular destination.
Visit and explore the Sirmione, Desenzano del Garda, Salo, Isola del Garda, Gardone Riviera, Gargnano, Limone Sul Garda, Garda Trentino, Malcesine, Bardolino, Gardaland and so much more. -
Milan
Milan is Italy's window on Europe, its most sophisticated and high-tech metropolis. La Scala, its landmark, is one of Europe's most prestigious opera houses. Milan is one of Europe's top shopping cities, with an incredible concentration of sophisticated, high style boutiques - and that's only fitting because Milan is the dynamo of the Italian fashion industry. Dolce & Gabbana, Ferré, Krizia, Moschino, Prada, Armani, and Versace have all catapulted to international stardom from design studios based here. Inevitably, shopping is of almost religious significance.
