Palazzo Borromeo Tickets and Tours

Tour Palazzo Borromeo to Isola Bella, Isola Pescatori and DRINK!

Fantastic Experience !!!

We had a fantastic tour with Davide of the Borromean Islands and the Lombardy Countryside. This was the second time we had a tour with Davide and it was everything you could want in a tour of the Italian marvels of Northern Italy. He blended history, art and local culture so you left with a true understanding of the locale. It was pouring down rain and we were not bothered by it as he kept us engaged throughout the tour inside and out. He also took us to a traditional trattoria in the hills above Lake Maggiore for a special lunch with a spectacular view of the lake and countryside. He also provides recommendations on where also to go during our time in the area and his suggestions are always the best things to see. Best tour guide we have had in Italy. We highly recommend him and will tour with him again !!!

A wonderful guided tour of the Borromean Islands of Lake Maggiore

We had a fabulous excursion with Micaela. Right from booking her communications and logistics were excellent. Micaela’s depth of knowledge and friendly personality meant that we had a wonderful and memorable tour of the islands, palaces and gardens.

Lake Maggiore Daytrip from Milan - Private

Day trip to Lago Maggiore

We had a lovely day out of Milan, we were picked up by private transfer at 9am driven to Stresa where the driver purchased our ferry tickets and checked the time table to ensure we would be back at the correct time. We spent longer on Isola Bella where we bought our own tickets to view the Palazzo and gardens which were spectacular. We had lunch in a lovely restaurant near the castle (Il Fornello) and then took the ferry to Isola Superiore where we walked around and then returned to Stresa by ferry and connected with our driver and on back to Milan. It was very well organised day, which had been well communicated in advance and simple. It was a nice time of year to go as although busy, it was not overrun with people. We chose to eat on Isola Bella as we found a nice small restaurant and the timetable for the ferry was convenient to us. Sadly the sun did not come out but the temperature was mild and it did not rain!
