Highlights
Discover the charm of Como with a flexible self-guided audio tour that brings to life the city’s medieval streets, grand piazzas, and architectural treasures at your own pace. As you stroll from ancient gates to elegant churches and lakeside promenades, the audio guide reveals stories of Roman origins, local traditions, and the legacy of Alessandro Volta. After exploring the historic centre, continue your experience in a traditional wine bar (enoteca), where you’ll enjoy a tasting of three Italian wines accompanied by small artisanal snacks. The tasting is guided by an English-speaking sommelier who introduces each wine’s character and origin. A perfect combination of culture, flavour, and independence. To help us maintain the quality and availability of our audioguides, we request the presentation of a valid ID at the start of the tour, ensuring that future visitors can also enjoy this enriching experience.

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).
