Guided city tour

What to expect

Milan is more than just a place for fashionistas or football fans – there's a historic side to the city beyond its cool, cosmopolitan and chic exterior. And this tour does just that – you'll see the best and most impressive side of Milan, including the Duomo and Sforza Castle.

You'll travel from Lake Maggiore to the bright lights of Milan, where a day of sightseeing and exploring awaits. Kick off your guided tour of the city at the Monumental Cemetery, home to the mausoleum of the Campari family. Then it's on to Sforza Castle, which houses major works of art.

To end the tour, you'll pass by the spectacular cathedral, the Duomo, and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele shopping arcade. You'll find yourself looking up at its iron-and-glass roof more than the shops. Afterwards, you'll have free time – either make your way to the La Scala opera house museum or indulge in some window shopping in the fashion capital of Italy.

Lake Orta Tour

Known locally as La Cenerentola, or Cinderella, Lake Orta has an ethereal, unspoilt quality far away from the crowds. You'll journey along its shores during what promises to be a relaxing afternoon tour from Lake Maggiore.While Lake Orta is the smaller and less visited of Italy's subalpine lakes, it's considered one of the prettiest by many. You'll be able to judge for yourself on this tour, which takes you to its most scenic points along the shore. There's free time to sip a drink at a café in a lakeside piazza or just sit back and soak up the lake's mountain backdrops. It's a very romantic setting.You'll also catch sight of the islet in the middle of the lake, San Giulio, one of the northern Italy's best-kept secrets. Hop aboard a short boat ride across and make sure to visit its Romanesque basilica, famed for its frescoes.
