The train is so much easier.

Trains run from both Milan train stations to the city of Como (about a 40-minute ride). From there you can take the hydofoil which stops at many towns on the lake.<BR>You're in for three glorious days!

Thanks for the help. Are day-trips over to Lake Como OK or does it make much more sense to stay there? We do have a great deal(points) on a Milan Hotel. Thanks a lot.

You can visit Lake Como on a daytrip; the town of Bellagio is quite beautiful, with at least two nearby villas open to the public. No shortage of good places to eat, or stuff to buy!<BR><BR>

We have just got back from our trip and went to Como as a day trip from Milan. We travelled by train and it was and easy day trip. The area is beautiful and I would have loved to have spent a night or 2 there and explored the other towns.
