    A lovely day out of Milan. There were some travelling times, of course, but the scenery and Bellagio made it all worthwhile.

    A pleasant and well-organised excursion. The Wi-Fi on the bus was handy for sending photos and letting the family know how we were getting on.

    Bellagio was lovely, with narrow streets and a peaceful atmosphere. The guide gave us useful tips on how to make the most of our time there.
