Let me guide you
Hi, I’m Silvia — and I created this guide to help you plan your visit to Bellagio and explore the wonders of Lake Como.
I’ve been living in this area for years, and over time I realized how many people were looking for honest, simple advice on how to get to Bellagio, what to do once they’re here, and how to make the most of their time.
That’s how this website was born: a place where you can find practical tips, local insights, and inspiration for your trip.
You’ll find everything from how to reach Bellagio from Milan or nearby airports, to how the ferries work, what to expect from a boat tour, where to go hiking, and even how to book a trip on the Bernina Express.
I’ve included activities and experiences I genuinely recommend — some of which are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission if you book through them (at no extra cost for you).
Bellagio is often called the “Pearl of Lake Como” — and for good reason.
The village sits right where the lake splits into two branches, offering postcard views, picturesque alleys, gardens, and a peaceful atmosphere that’s hard to forget.
If this is your first time visiting, I suggest starting with How to Get to Bellagio — it’ll help you figure out the best route depending on where you’re coming from. Then take a look at Things to Do for ideas on how to spend your days here.
I hope this guide helps you fall in love with Bellagio, just like I did.
