Help me choose a lake(s) to visit in Como area Italy
Our take
Hey there, adventure seeker! Planning a trip to the stunning Como area in mid-April sounds like a dream! With only two days to explore, it’s essential to choose your lakes wisely. While Lake Como is famous for its beauty and charm, nearby Lake Orta and Lake Maggiore offer their own epic experiences. Balancing all three lakes along with a visit to Lugano might be a bit ambitious, especially using public transport. Let’s dive into the best options to maximize your adventure without feeling rushed!
Hey so I'm going in mid April (18 - 19/20) to Como and surrounding for 2 days. I'm arriving from Padova/Padua. But I read about Lake Orta dan Maggiore and wondering if those 2 are more worth it than Como?
If going to Como I'm gonna go to Lugano. I've spent some time trying to organise all 3 lakes + Lugano but I'm worried it'll be too packed for 2 full days. Would it too ambitious for me to try and see all the lakes in one go? I'm even considering taking a day trip from Milan instead.
I'll be using public transport since I don't think it's worth it to rent a car cause I'll be travelling solo.
Thanks!
Edit: My next destination is Turin

- Where to visit from MilanSo, in a few weeks I'm going on a vacation. We're 3 people, it's gonna be a 7 day travel, and we booked an appartment in Milan for the whole trip so we wouldn't be carrying the bags all the time. The day we arrive we are going to explore Milan. The last day is to pack bags and go back to the airport. We are left with 5 days to visit other places. We were looking into visit Florence, Verona, Lake Como, Lake Garda, Lugano and maybe do the Bernina train. This are all options to do on this vacation and we are trying to choose what to do, in each day. For example, for me, Lake Garda, Florence and Lugano are priorities but I'm not the only on vacation. But we are flexible and have about the same tastes. For people from there and who have traveled there, how would you advice organizing this, where to go, what advices do you have? Should we book train tickets right now before going or it's fine booking them on the spot? What about the boats if we go the the lakes? Thank you in advance. submitted by /u/Ancient-Pen- [link] [comments]
- Lake Garda for 4 nightsHi all, I am planning a trip to North Italy (possibly 13-17th May, before it gets too hot for us) - thought about Venice but settled on 4 nights in Lake Garda with half a day or so in Verona before our flight back. I have been doing research, and really want to experience Riva and Sirmione, as well as possibly Limone? (suggestions are very welcome). I am unsure how to divide our hotels, for example should I spend 2 nights in Sirmione and 2 nights in Riva? Or should I spend all 4 in a town halfway between? We will probably only have a backpack each as luggage, so moving hotel isn't as big of an issue than if we had big suitcases. At first I even considered a different hotel every night going around the lake, but maybe that is too busy as we still want a relaxing holiday. Does anyone have any advice on what towns we should visit during our 4 nights, (5.5 days ish) and whether we should stay in the same hotel or if it is a good idea to move? Or should we stick to one side? Many thanks in advance! \#lakegarda #italy #verona submitted by /u/Own_Duty2374 [link] [comments]
