Description
Your Morning in Como
To begin your day, you will meet your private local guide in downtown Como. From there, you will head to one of its most cherished cafés to enjoy a delicious breakfast, featuring a homemade regional cake paired with your choice of a creamy cappuccino or classic espresso.
Walking Tour Through 2000 Years of History
After breakfast, you can step back in time as you explore Como’s perfectly preserved medieval quarter, which ancient Roman walls still embrace on three sides. Your private guide will unveil the city’s fascinating transformation from a Roman settlement to a modern Italian gem. Of course, the tour includes a visit to the breathtaking Como Cathedral, a masterpiece that showcases the finest Gothic and Renaissance architecture in Northern Italy. Inside, you can admire the work of the “maestri comacini,” the skilled local stonemasons who made this region famous.
An Italian-style Aperitif
To crown your morning, you will enjoy an aperitif at an intimate, historic, family-run wine shop. Here, you will also have the opportunity to buy a few bottles of local wine to take home with you.
