Highlights
Our 3 hour Como Food Tour provides a unique food tasting and cultural experience. Our professional English-speaking guides will give you the local insider view of the history, culture and architecture of this fascinating city, while enriching the tour with delicious food stops. Admire the principal monuments such as the Duomo, the “Broletto” and the church of San Fedele. Walk and discover more hidden corners in the medieval part of the town. Pause to taste the flavors most appreciated by locals. Visit a local “enoteca” to sample a selection of local wines accompanied by top-quality sliced meats. Sample high-quality extra virgin olive oil harvested in Lake Como and learn how it compares to one produced in Southern Italy. Sample local cheeses accompanied by delicious balsamic vinegar and, naturally, more wine. Before saying goodbye, our guide will stop at a local selected shop where you will end your tasting experience with a nice “cono gelato”.

About Lake Como
Lake Como is a deep, Y-shaped lake in Lombardy, ringed by steep green mountains, pastel villages, ornate villas and terraced gardens.
Lake Como is shaped like an upside-down Y, with three arms that meet near Bellagio. At more than 400 metres deep, it is one of the deepest lakes in Europe, held between steep wooded slopes that rise towards the Alps. Villages with painted houses and small harbours stand along the water, and a network of ferries links them, making a boat the best way to see the shoreline.
Top-ranked sights in Lake Como: Villa del Balbianello, Villa Melzi Gardens (Giardini di Villa Melzi), Como-Brunate Funicular Railway (Funicolare Como-Brunate).
