We took a 3 hour tour with Giulia Ferrari and she is awesome! Giulia knows all the history of San Giulio including the chapels honoring St. Francis of Assisi. We also took a boat with her to the island of San Giulio to tour the church and the grounds of the convent there. We stopped for cappuccino at the cafe on the island and it was quaint with a gorgeous view. Giulia is very knowledgeable about the local area and gave reliable recommendations for good quality hotels, restaurants, and shopping in the region. She is a pleasure to talk to, speaks English very well, and we highly recommend her!

Un luogo unico, un gioiello un po’ nascosto dove tranquillità e magia si fondono. Ottimi ristoranti e bar per ricchi aperitivi. Assolutamente da vedere!

Un posto fantastico, un piccolo borgo Orta con l'isoletta San Giulio a poca distanza e a fare da contorno una splendida natura e il tranquillo lago D'Orta. Il tutto raccontato dalla simpatica e professionale guida Giulia che ci ha organizzato un tour veramente impeccabile. Un'esperienza che consiglio di fare.

עיירה יפהפייה לא לבוא מחוץ לעונה כי הכל סגור. (בין נובמבר למרץ) ממש סגור. אם כבר הגעתם אל תוותרו על טיול רגלי לאיזור המנזרים שבמעלה ההר 13 מנזרים מתקופת הרנסנס ונקודת תצפית מקסימה שמשקיפה על העיירה.
