The enduring charm and beauty of the Italian Lakes has lured everyone from Roman emperors and Hollywood celebrities to the cream of European society. The clear blue waters of Lake Como are nestled between rugged mountains and fringed with elegant villas and quaint villages that tumble down wooded hillsides to the lake shore. On Lake Maggiore idyllic islands play host to grand palaces and picturesque fishing villages as well as superb gardens that nurture plants from all over the world. It's a beguiling region, littered with Michelin-starred restaurants and fine hotels, making a trip here a feast for both the eyes and the senses.
