Village Life™ in the Italian Lake District
 

May, June and September 2012

Lake Como, Lake Maggiore, Bellagio, Borromean Islands

High on the list of the most captivating destinations in the world is northern Italy’s fabled Lake District. Its unique setting of glacial waters and Alpine peaks, sub-tropical climate, ancient towns painted in terra cotta and ochre, and distinctly bella figura Italian style combined with a rich history, has inspired poets, composers, musicians, artists and philosophers for centuries.

We are delighted to offer this seven-night Village Life™ in the Italian Lake District program, a wonderful way to experience the true essence of life in and the incomparable beauty and charm of the fascinating region of Lombardy. Our expert-guided tours explore the artistic and architectural treasures left by Roman patricians, medieval lords and Renaissance princes, while enriching lectures and the exclusive Village Forum™ featuring local residents bring you personal perspectives on Lombardy’s cultural heritage and modern life. You will have opportunities to taste—and even cook—northern Italy’s acclaimed cuisine and learn key Italian phrases, making your visits to Como's lively market all the more enjoyable.

Complementing this one-of-a-kind comprehensive soggiorno are accommodations in the charming Hotel Regina Olga, overlooking Lake Como, and located in the heart of the ancient town of Cernobbio, just north of Milan.

Village Life™ in the Italian Lake District is a popular travel program, an excellent value and a great opportunity to really experience daily life in one of Italy’s most unique settings with the convenience of unpacking only once.
