About
This small lake to the west of Lago Maggiore is one of the loveliest places I have ever been. It is telling that the Milanese call it La Cenerentola (Cinderella) because they have long considered it the secretly superior sibling to the larger, money-blighted lakes of Como and Maggiore. But, for me, what sets Orta apart is not its beauty – though the place is absurdly pretty – but the lake's mysterious, ethereal, almost supernatural quality. There is something for the soul there as well as for the eye.

- rayofsj0 contributionsLots of walking but still enjoyableHad a good time. Our guide really provided a lot of information and pointed out a lot of things on the last supper painting. Be warned, it’s a lot of walking if you do the sforza castle tour.Written 5 September 2024

The stops are fantastic , her recommendation for lunch amazing . Even took me to great shops . The entire day was great .Written 11 August 2024
- mdjoseph29760 contributionsAmazing experience not to be missed in MilanMy husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience on this tour. Andrea was our guide and he made this experience even better! Not only did I not have to worry about getting tickets to the Last Supper before they sold out but the commentary during the viewing was so perfect. I am so glad I didn't do it on my own. Andrea was very educated on this experience and the piece we were looking at. The church after was so incredible. We are so glad we got to see them both. Then we stopped afterwards at the oldest bar in Milan, Bar Magenta! it was great. Loved the area, we had a nice leisurely stroll through the park and then Brera district. Perfect day in Milan. Great tour!Written 16 June 2024
- JaniHR0 contributionsThank you for your experticeThe sommelier was awesome. We learned a lot from him. Thank you guiding us to through different flavours and tastes around Italy! Your inside tips from the wines were valuable.Written 26 April 2024
- celmond0 contributionsFabulous Day in CremonaWe booked a tour to Cremona. Everything was perfect and without a glitch. Beatrice of Travel Diary booked us train tickets from Milan to Cremona and even validated the tickets for us before our trip. She arranged for the Cremona guide Francesca to meet us at Cremona train station itself. It was a great day trip - most significant parts of Cremona were covered, including the Iconic Clock Tower and Violin Museum. We even got to see a violin recital! Thank you so much for arranging such an awesome tour for us!Written 26 March 2024
- P8027KBlaurab0 contributionsFantastic wine tasting experienceExcellent wine tasting experience! We were able to taste 4 of Italy's high quality wines while also learning about the wine and the italian wine regions. Sommelier was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly which made the entire experience a great time. The wine bar is definitely a place I would return to if ever back in Milan!Written 10 March 2024
- jTrippr0 contributionsGreat value tour with Incredible Last Supper ViewsThe tour really was worth it, and that was largely because of our tour guide, Alexa was great. Her knowledge of the city Milan and its history was impressive given it wasn’t a city she grew up in but moved to.. The Last Supper really was incredible, and an absolute treasure to see.. I’d book this same tour again in a heartbeat.Written 26 February 2024

- witm20230 contributionsIncredible wine tasting 🍷Had an incredible time! As first-time wine tasters, we asked the sommelier a lot of questions, and he not only answered them with enthusiasm but also provided a wealth of knowledge, making the tasting accessible and enjoyable. The selection of wines was fantastic, making us confident that even seasoned wine enthusiasts would find it worthwhile. Additionally, the snacks and the overall ambiance of the place were a delicious touch We highly recommend this tasting. 🍷✨Written 23 December 2023
- witm20230 contributionsGreat experience booking wine tastingSeamless booking experience through! The process was reassuringly smooth, and we easily secured our spot for the "Italian Wine Tasting with Sommelier." Highly recommend the platform AND the wine tasting!Written 23 December 2023
- F8767YPjamesc0 contributions1/2 day at Komo = great decisionThe trip started off quite nicely, as we were met promptly at the starting point. Access to the train, and the discussion during the train ride was enlightening. Once we arrived at Como, the pace, at which he lead, the tour was quite comfortable, and the information, history met all of our needs. Our particular guide had actually lived in Como, and that was quite helpful I believe. Choosing between this in the full day tour, I think we made the best choice. As we had time to just absorb the history and the environment after the tour was over, without being overly exhausted.Written 17 November 2023
- qpqpdbdbrrrjoy0 contributionsLiv tour with guide KaterinaOur guide, KATERINA, showed us around. We were a group of 4 adults, a 1 year old and a 3 year old. She was also very kind to the children. She was very thorough in explaining details about Leonardo da Vinci's murals that are not talked about in books or on TV. It was a tour worth going even if it was a detour.Written 14 November 2023
