Stresa, Stresa, Italy we will meet in Piazzale Lido Stresa at 9.30 10 minutes
Isola Bella, Italy During the day we will visit the Baroque palace on Isola Bella and the luxuriant Italian-style garden, which reaches a height of 37 metres and is laid out on ten terraces. 120 minutes
Island of the Fishermen (Isola dei Pescatori), Italy Then we will visit the Isola Pescatori (Fishermen’s Island), or Upper Island because of its more northerly situation than the other islands in the Gulf, is the most picturesque of the Borromean Islands, as well as the only one to be permanently inhabited. Distinctive features of its ancient little village are narrow lanes with characteristic two-storey houses, with long balconies traditionally used for drying fish; the island’s inhabitants earn their living mainly by fishing and tourism.
I can suggest you a nice place for lunch to taste the lake fish. 120 minutes
Isola Madre, Italy Finally we will visit the Isola Madre: it is the largest and perhaps most characteristic of the three islands in the Borromean Gulf. Its palace was built in the 16th century and the garden is a paradise with tropical flowers, where peacocks and pheasants wander in freedom. 120 minutes

The tour was a bit perfunctory. I would expect a bit more for the cost of the guide plus boat transfer costs and entry fee for the two islands on top of that.

We really enjoyed our tour. It was great. We were in Stresa so the boat ride was very short. I would have liked to see more of the lake

L'Île madre est la plus belle, je recommande.
Le soir c'est Saint Tropez en Italie. Place avec des restaurants très sympas. Très bonne ambiance.
