Sitting in northern Italy, Lake Garda is surrounded by three unique regions: Lombardy, Trentino Alto-Adige, and the Veneto. With its enchanting scenery of clear waters and majestic mountains, this lovely area is perfect for exploring lakeside towns such as Sirmione and Desenzano.

Lake Maggiore

Nestled on the southern fringes of the Alps, the pristine waters of Lake Maggiore are an iconic landmark in both the Lombardy and Piedmont regions. One of the biggest draws to this region is The Borromean Islands, where you'll find Isola Bela's 17th-century Palazzo Borromeo.

Lake Como is acclaimed for its striking alpine backdrop and luxury villas. This deep, Y-shaped lake is a haven for relaxation and recreation, offering boat rides, historic towns like Bellagio, and captivating vistas that have attracted celebrities and tourists for centuries.

Lake Iseo, also in the Lombardy region of northern Italy, is renowned for its serene beauty. This little-known corner of northern Italy is surrounded by charming villages, rolling hills, and the stunning Monte Isola, Europe's largest lake island. A holiday here is ideal for a peaceful Italian escape.

A hidden gem in the Piedmont region of Italy, Lake Orta, exudes charm with its small size and beauty. Surrounded by quaint villages like Orta San Giulio, it offers a quiet retreat with scenic walks and an authentic Italian way of life. It's also a fantastic base to explore further afield.

“We loved our holiday, excellent hotel Gardinetto in Italy. Plus the mercure at Mulhouse was just opposite the train station. Final day too long travelling back to London. Paul Cording tour manager dealt with train issues as they arose.
