Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Eremo di Santa Caterina del Sasso, Via Santa Caterina 13, 21038, Leggiuno Italy
Depart from the resort town of Stresa on a relaxing sightseeing cruise along the beautiful coastline to discover the lesser-known corners of Lake Maggiore.
Admire architectural masterpieces such as "Villa Amalia Bernocchi" in Empire style, "Villa Carlottina Margherita" in Liberty style, "Villa Excelsior Niobe" in Castellano style, "Villa Vignolo Domus" and the most famous "Villa Pallavicino".
Sailing away from the coast of Stresa, move in the direction of the Hermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso, which perched on a sheer rock face overlooking the lake is undoubtedly one of the most evocative scenarios of Lake Maggiore. Take unique photographs and enjoy a tour of the lake outside the classic itineraries but no less fascinating and rich in history.
Stop At: Pallanza, Pallanza, Verbania, Lake Maggiore, Piedmont
Already a destination for elite travelers, such as painters and poets in search of inspiration, Verbania, "garden on the lake", is one of the most evocative places overlooking Lake Maggiore. Capital of the province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, it was born from the union of the industrial and residential area of Intra and some neighboring hamlets lying on the shores of the Borromeo Gulf.
It is one of the places where tourism and culture are most alive, equipped and cared for, it looks like a balcony from which to enjoy splendid views of the lake, such as Villa Giulia or Villa Rusconi Clerici. In this area there are some of the most fascinating gardens and parks in Italy, whose splendor and perfect state of maintenance highlight the coexistence between the fabulous lake atmospheres. The three main monuments to visit are located in the Pallanza area: Villa Giulia, Villa San Remigio and Villa Taranto.
Villa Giulia is a business of the Branca family, that of Fernet, dated mid-19th century.
Duration: 2 hours

Servizio puntuale economico e organizzato che ci ha permesso di visitare tutte le isole borromee. Durante il tragitto si possono ammirare dal lago scorci del lago molto suggestivi.

Metto un pallino perché non è possibile metterne zero! Avevo prenotato con un'altra compagnia, ma son stato fatto salire con l'inganno sulla loro barca. La cosa mi è molto spiaciuta, soprattutto per la compagnia con cui avevo prenotato. Spero che i miei 200€ di ieri facciano loro perdere 100 possibili clienti che leggono questa recensione.Marinella A

Bellissimo tour delle Isole Borromee. Servizi ok. Merita la visita al Museo delle Bambole, caratteristica l’Isola dei Pescatori. Da vedere!

Da wir nicht in der Hauptsaison hier waren konnten wir es richtig geniessen. Wenig Touristen und man konnte alles in Ruhe anschauen. Auch das Boot für die Überfahrt zu den Inseln war fast nicht besetzt. Während der Hauptsaison ist sicher Geduld gefragt und alles überlaufen.
