Northern Lakes & Dolomites
The weather: It is the height of Summer and it can get quite warm and humid in Milan and on the lakes. For this part of the trip we recommend light and comfortable clothing with your favourite pair of walking shoes. You will be staying in comfortable accommodation with air-conditioning. In the mountains, the weather can be warm during the day with cool nights so we recommend bringing a light wind and/or rain jacket.
Physical expectations: We do not place age limitations on the tour and welcome anyone with a moderate level of physical fitness. Please keep in mind that it is mountainous country, so you can expect it to be very hilly and in some parts the gradients can be quite steep. It is not a hiking tour; however, some walking is required. You should expect to stroll leisurely for up to two hours with many breaks for sightseeing, coffee and a taste of the local produce.
The program appears to be busy and full; however, it is mixed with long restful lunches and leisure time for your enjoyment and comfort. If you need to, you can always take time off from the organised program.

As one of Italy’s most beautiful natural wonders, the Dolomites’ tranquil scenery is well known throughout the country, but often missed by tourists. Whether you’re a hiking enthusiast or simply love to see breathtaking (world heritage listed) nature, these Italian Alps are perfect.
In our tour we visit the striking Dolomites during the best time of the year to ensure we can see the glistening alpine lakes and mountains in the warm sunshine. Our experienced travel guides adore Italy’s breathtaking mountain range, so much so we’ve written a blog about what makes the Dolomites so special. Read about the most spectacular mountain range in Italy’s history and the best spot to see panoramic views.
The Dolomites are a jewel in Italy’s crown of spectacular sites, one that even our own tour guides are mesmerised by no matter how many times we’re lucky enough to visit.
With captivating beauty the world renowned Lake Como encapsulates natural beauty and Italian culture. During our tour the Italian sun sparkles across the lake during Summer, making the elegant estates and gardens surrounding the lake more charming.
Lake Como has a deep history of hosting the elite and inspiring worldly artists, writers and philosophers. Commonly associated as the celebrity playground, due to its seclusion and beauty, Lake Como and Bellagio can make anyone feel like royalty.
The lakeside town of Bellagio can be forgotten due to the stardom of Lake Como. Bellagio is a true Italian paradise for culinary food, enchanting architecture and luxurious views. Lake Como has featured in films that has only capsulated it’s fame further, as the Star Wars and Ocean’s franchises have immortalised the serene lake. We explore the million dollar views of lake Como in our day ride boat tours and stroll through the Bellagio town.
Lake Garda is not only serene but is Italy’s largest lake that complements living la dolce vita. Surrounded by picturesque towns this is a foodie’s dream to enjoy authentically delicious Italian food while taking in the vast blue of Lake Guarda.
There is so much to do at Lake Garda, from water sports to adventuring down the cobbe-stoned paths of Sirmione, Limone and Riva del Garda. After years of travelling to this stunning part of Northern Italy we’ve perfected our itinerary to see the best of Lake Garda. Discover what makes Italy’s largest lake at the foot of the alps so special today!
