What you'll do

A full-day excursion of fairytale beauty and scenery, among picture postcard sites and amazing landscapes. Discover Lake Orta, only 12 kilometres in length, which has been for centuries a great source of inspiration for world-renowned artists and poets like Nietzsche and Browning. 


First on the agenda is the stunning Orta San Giulio, an enchanting resort set on a garden peninsular which majestically overlooks the Island of San Giulio. Orta’s narrow streets are unsuitable for cars, so it is a special pleasure to stroll through its cobblestoned avenues instead.  It is interesting to note that all the streets in this town lead to the suggestive Piazza Motta, the heart of the village, which is open to the lake offering stunning views over the Island of San Giulio. [readmore] Next, we will travel by bus to Lake Maggiore: this blue, majestic lake is the second largest of the Italian lakes, at 65 km length. Here we will admire the enchanting resort of Stresa, also known as “the pearl of Verbano”, which is, without doubt, the most beautiful town overlooking the lake. 


You will have free time to explore the historic centre at your own leisure, taking in the relaxing atmosphere of the main piazza and walking along the world celebrated lakeside promenade, made even more impressive by the lush vegetation and flowers like oleanders, mimosa and azaleas decorating it. 


The cherry on the cake of this wonderful daytrip will be a visit to the jewel of the Lake, the stunning Isola Bella. A private boat will take you there, and you can decide to visit the majestic Palazzo Borromeo at your own expenses or to simply explore the isle on your own. A visit to this Palace shall not be missed, especially for its gardens, inspired by the hanging gardens of Babylon, one of the ancient seven wonders of the world. An intense day out good for the mind and the soul, where the beauty of nature will be your travel companion.
