Details
If you are dreaming of spending a calm and relaxing day, this boat transfer from Stresa to the Borromean Islands is for you. With this trip, you will have the opportunity to choose the departure time of your tour and will be able to move freely between one island and another at your own pleasure.
Set off from Stresa to the largest and most distant island of the archipelago, Isola Madre. On its territory there are still some buildings, including the palace with its botanical gardens. If you look closely, you will notice peacocks and pheasants strolling through the greenery. Then you move on to Isola dei Pescatori, the only one where people live all year round. Lose yourself in the narrow, characteristic alleys and stop to enjoy a good lunch in one of its typical restaurants. As a last stop, you can visit Isola Bella, the most fascinating of the three. Here you can admire its Italian garden, composed of ten terraces, and enjoy a unique view of Lake Maggiore.Highlights
