Lake Maggiore Half Day Trip from Milan with a Panoramic Cruise Included

This is an enchanting half day trip to Lake Maggiore and the Alps – enjoy a relaxing stroll around the charming town of Stresa and a romantic cruise around the Lake!

Lake Maggiore curves its way between Piedmont and Lombardy, surrounded by the majestic Alp Mountains. You will arrive at the charming and superbly positioned town of Stresa, where you can shop and or simply stroll around to discover the quaint beauty of this lake-front village.

Then, make your way to Lake Maggiore for a panoramic boat cruise among the islands and along the Alp-hugged coastline. You can admire the stunning villas with their rolling lawns and richly exotic gardens – a gardener’s dream.

The cruise begins with the panorama of Isola Madre, with its 20 acre park. Then, we will move on to the simplicity of Fisherman’s Island where you’ll be free to explore, peek in the shops, or eat some delicious specialty snacks. Next, we will reach Isola Bella, where you can visit the beautifully decorated gardens of the Borromean Palace surrounded by chic boutiques and cozy cafes.

The trip ends with a final view of the Alps and Lake as the boat returns to Stresa, where your coach for Milan awaits.

A perfect day away from the hustle and bustle of Milan!
