Lake Maggiore Island Tour
This half-day tour whisks you away to two of three Borromean Islands in Lake Maggiore. After a quick boat trip, you'll arrive at the shores of tiny Isola dei Pescatori – it's barely 500m long by 100m wide. You'll be able to wander among its tiered, narrow alleys lined with plant-bedecked houses. Then, it's off to Isola Bella, which means ‘Beautiful Island'. And it's got a showstopper of a baroque palace as well as tiered Italianate gardens, inspired by the hanging gardens of Babylon. The shell-encrusted grottoes on the lower floor are well worth a look, too.
