Escorted Tour Package
Milan is the second largest city in Italy and the worlds largest fashion capital. Home of Armani, Versace and Dolce and Gabbana. If shopping's not your thing then enjoy the culture, architecture or visit Italy's largest Cathedral in the main square, Piazza del Duomo. For me I just love to chill and enjoy the Italian madness of Milan !
Lecco is our Tour location ; a very picturesque town located on Lake Como, one of the deepest lakes in Europe. Surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery, Lecco is a relaxed but a lively setting with many bars and restaurants. It has a gentle spectacle of villas in the midst of centuries-old grounds.
