The day tour starts when you meet your English-speaking guide in central Milan. From there, a private air-conditioned coach will take you across the border to Switzerland through stunning scenery and your guide will be on hand to fill you in on the sights.
Lake Como
The best way to experience Lake Como is by boat. A relaxing private boat will allow you to view this tranquil landscape from the water. As you float by, your guide will point out famous villas used as locations for Star Wars and James Bond movies along with the homes of international stars like George Clooney. You’ll also have plenty of time to take pictures or just take in the view with a refreshment from the onboard restaurant. Arriving back in Milan in time for dinner, you won’t believe you managed to see so much in one day, and without ever feeling rushed.

Absolutely outstanding tour, spectacular views and terrific commentary and interesting facts from the amazing Amato. Cristian our driver had the skills of a formula one driver going through the tight tunnels and hairpin bends! It is truly a one-day trip of a lifetime where the views are simply breathtaking and we were able to stop off in Lugano and purchase the most exquisite Swiss chocolates. Amato and Cristian made it an incredible experience. A super super day!
