Lake Maggiore Tour with its Borromeo's Islands 

Spend a day at the stunning Lake Maggiore with this day trip from Milan. At a short distance, the Borromeo's Islands are the highlight of a stay at Lake Maggiore. Visit Stresa, a charming village caught between the mountains and the lake with its beautiful XIX century mansions and gardens. First settled over a millennia ago, the town of Stresa was heavily influenced by Milan's aristocratic Borromeo family, who commissioned the beautiful 15th - 17th century palaces and villas for which Stresa and the neighboring islands are renowned. Your guide will introduce you to the sumptuous Baroque palace and terraced gardens of Isola Bella, the charming villas, gardens and theatres on Isola Madre, and the traditional fishing village of Isola Pescatori. Isola Bella will surprise you with its sumptuous baroque palace and its terraced Italian-style gardens. On Isola Madre the atmosphere is more authentic, with a wonderful botanical garden; Isola Pescatori is the more lively, with its colored fishermen's houses, its little shops and cafés where you can have lunch and shopping, after free time your guide will escort back to Stresa and Milan.
