Stresa, Piedmont Region

On the map: Stresa is a town of about 5,000 people on the shores of Lake Maggiore, just across from Verbania, in the Piedmont region of northern Italy, about 56 miles (90 km) northwest of Milan. It is on the road and rail routes to the Simplon Pass, a high mountain road between the Pennine Alps and the Lepontine Alps in Switzerland.

The name of this town first appeared in documents in 998 AD. By the 15th century it had become a fishing community, and eventually ended up under the control of the Borromeo Family. In 1948 Ernest Hemingway visited Stresa—he had set part of his novel, A Farewell to Arms, in the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees. Stresa has a front and center view of sunrise over Lake Maggiore. It also has the feel of a bygone era of decadence and elegance. In the center of town, the Piazza Cadorna is shady, and a nice place for coffee or a wine break. There are ancient cobblestone streets that weave through town—they’re perfect for exploring. Enjoy a cable car trip up Monte Mottarone. You’ll have amazing views over the lake, including those of the gorgeous, little islands. Take a ferry to the Borromean Islands and wander the lush gardens. Consider taking The Lago Maggiore Express, a one-day train trip to Domodossola, and switch to the Hundred Valleys train to Locarno, Switzerland. (You can take a ferry back to Stresa.) Stresa is an exceptional town.

Many parts of the palace are open to visitors: richly furnished rooms and opulent salons are embellished with priceless artworks.  

The garden is full of flowers and exotic plants of great rarity, which grow thanks to the particularly mild climate of the Borromean Gulf. Everything on the island has been designed to create a scenic effect, including the “Theatre” constructed at the end of the superimposed terraces, dominated by a statue of a Unicorn, the heraldic emblem of the Borromeos, which is flanked by statues representing Nature and Art. The huge, extraordinary garden is further decorated with ponds, fountains and a plethora of statues dating from the second half of the 17th century.

Juliet's Balcony, Verona, Veneto Region

Visitors flock from around the globe to Verona to see the famous site of star crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet. The balcony belongs to the aptly named La Casa di Giulietta, or House of Juliet, the former home of the Cappello family and the inspiration for the Capulets. Love-struck couples linger in the garden, pose for pictures on the balcony, or attach letters filled with sweet nothings to the walls. For good luck, many like to cop a feel off the bronze statue of Juliet, specifically her right breast, which has resulted in it developing a beautiful patina. Many people also leave their mark through graffiti and sticking chewing gum to the walls, some of the blobs being shaped into crude hearts.

After an hour of free time for wandering or lunch, your group will meet back up and return to Verona by van.

Authentic Verona Family Dinner & Cooking Demo

In the heart of the Veneto wine region, we find Verona, known as the "City of Love,” and home to Romeo and Juliet. One of Verona's lesser-known secrets is its rich and varied gastronomy. Just like Romeo and Juliet, every local dish has its own love story.  For example, the Love Knot, known as the Tortellini of Valeggio, came from the legendary relationship between a soldier and a nymph, or “Pastissada de caval.” It is prepared using a recipe that dates back 1,500 years. 

When you dine at a host’s home in Verona, you will fall in love with the local dishes and their stories. Immerse yourself in a dining experience at a private home, enjoy an exclusive cooking demo, and taste authentic recipes treasured in family cookbooks and passed down by real Italian Mammas. Feel the warmth of Italian hospitality as you connect with local people. Enjoy an Aperitivo with sparkling wine and nibbles followed by a 4-course menu, including starter, pasta, main course with side dish, and dessert. Drinks are included—water, a selection of red and white wines from regional cellars, and coffee.

Take your time at Garda, and fall into the atmosphere and beauty of fine, relaxed living, Italian-style. You’ll want to explore Roman ruins and soak in thermal hot springs. If you love wine, tour some of the world’s finest wineries from here. (If you’re not a wine enthusiast, no problem. The countryside is irresistible.) From Garda, you can day-hop to Verona, and enjoy exceptional opera. There are three distinct regions at Garda: In the north, there’s Austrian food and an alpine feel. In the south, a Mediterranean ambiance of ease, olive trees, and farms. In the central part, you’re in the region of the plains and traditional Italian fare and folks. Dip into the hot springs that were enjoyed by the Romans, at Sirmione. The entire lake is a love song.
