Discover the beauty of two countries in one unforgettable day on this private tour from Como to Lugano. Begin in the heart of Como with a guided walk through elegant squares, medieval alleys, and the magnificent Cathedral, where Italian charm and history come alive.
Then enjoy a panoramic train ride across the border into Switzerland, arriving in the picturesque city of Lugano—set between mountains and lake. Your private guide will lead you through the old town, Piazza della Riforma, and the Romanesque Cathedral of San Lorenzo with its sweeping views.
Take a relaxing break for lunch at a lakeside restaurant before embarking on a serene one-hour cruise across Lake Lugano, surrounded by Alpine scenery.
End the day with a comfortable return train journey to Como, carrying with you memories of art, culture, and landscapes that bridge two worlds.
Attention! - passport required for border crossing.
