LAURA'S VACATION ON LAKE COMO

WHAT THE CLIENT ASKED FOR...

Laura and her husband are long-time clients who were scheduled to vacation in Northern Italy in March of 2020. Due to the pandemic we had to quickly cancel that trip. So, she combined a wedding they were attending in Northern Wales with this trip to Lake Como in 2022. They had been to Italy but never to the lake region. Laura and her husband are active and really wanted to enjoy the outdoors, the beauty of the lake and stay in a centrally located lakeside town. 

​

WHAT WE BOOKED FOR THEM...

We arranged for transportation and a couple of nights in London before the couple was transferred to the wedding in Wales. From there we planned their transfers and flight to arrive at Lake Como. On the lake we suggested a lovely brand new hotel in Menaggio which, upon arrival, client described as “gorgeous and extraordinary”.  We organized for them a series of activities while also allowing for time at leisure. We included a scenic guided hike along the lake, a private boat taking them to visit a spectacular villa then a stop for lunch, and a private guided bike tour.

THEIR TESTIMONIAL...

"I wanted to thank you again for planning such a wonderful trip for us. Your organizational skills are amazing, Belkys. You really remove any worry about travel. Your comprehensive pre-trip packets are so helpful! The transfers and guides you secured for us throughout the trip were wonderful. Everyone was always punctual, pleasant, and informative. The day trips in Lake Como were amazing. We'd highly recommend the guided electric bike trip from Bellagio up to Ghisallino. We particularly enjoyed the gorgeous vistas, and visits to the Ghisallo cycling museum and Madonna del Ghisallo Cycling Chapel. It was truly a memorable experience. We had so many special days in Lake Como. The guides you provided for the boat ride, tours of the villas, Bellagio, and the Greenway hike were exceptional. Their comprehensive knowledge and pleasant and welcoming manner were greatly appreciated. And, of course, every restaurant we dined in was wonderful. We particularly enjoyed: Crotto del misto, La Darsena, Ristorante La Fagurida, and Ristorante di Paolo. We look forward to a return visit very soon, as well as a future destination including the whole family. Thank you, again."
