Italian Lakes From the slopes surrounding Lakes Maggiore, Lugano and Como, walk ancient trails, walk through the gardens of 18th-century villas and find many quaint lakeside villages. Absorb the area's cultural village lifestyle and take in amazing views of lakes, forest green hills and snow topped mountains. For many years, the Italian lakes have been a favourite holiday destination from Roman historians to aristocratic Europeans to today's many celebrities, all impressed by its hot climate, quiet lakesides, and its regional tasty cuisine. Como is known to be the most beautiful of all the Italian lakes. The tourist friendly and delightful town of Bellagio, found where the main body of water meets its eastern Lecco branch, and Varenna, on the clean eastern shore, both deserve a visit. Or you can explore the lake by boat—travel is also rally effortless and the views are breath-taking. |

Italian Lakes, Italy Holiday Review
Submitted by: Jeff
Date of travel: 20-May-2007
Hired a car earlier this year and drove around the Italian Lakes with my wife and two young children. We had a fantastic time. The distances between the different lakes are not too long so the kids didn't get too bored. Hotels were great and rooms were shild friendly. no gaping balcony rails or sharp corners! The Sportsman Hotel in Garda was a favourite.
Water sports at the lakes are fantastic! and venice and verona are not far so you can always make a day trip. Food and wine in the region is fantastic and the theme parks were great for the kids.

Riva del Garda, Italian Lakes, Italy Holiday Review

Enjoyed a fantastic holiday to Riva Del Garda this year. Was nice to go earlier in the year before the summer rush as I could imagine that it would be much more crowded in the summer. Definitely hire a car or you run the risk of getting trapped in your hotel enjoying lazing around staring at the views when there is so much more to do!!

Lake Garda, Italian Lakes, Italy Holiday Review
Submitted by: John
Date of travel: 10-August-2006
I went with 30 of my teenage school kids to Lake Garda. This is definitely a great place for kids. Although next time I'm going to take my own!
The Gardaland theme park is fantastic. The vertical drop and the log flumes were a particular favourite. The water park was also great fun. Plenty of flumes to keep the kids and their young at heart teachers entertained! I didn't have any problems letting the kids enjoy the park in groups. They were completely safe the whole time.
Everyone like pasta and pizza so no problems with getting kids to eat everything. For the grown ups the locally produced Valpolicella wine is fantastic. The heat did get to some of them so pack the sun block and hats! And because this area is still very much Italian, we got plenty of opportunity to speak the language but if any of the kids got stuck, the locals were very friendly and easily switched to english.
