Villa del Balbianello & Velarca: Guided Visit + Lake Como Boat Tour

Onno

Originally commissioned in the late eighteenth century by Cardinal Durini, a prominent writer and patron, the Villa del Balbianello Park was intended to be a haven of literary leisure and delight. 

Fast forward to modern times, and the property was acquired by Guido Monzino, an entrepreneur, collector, and passionate adventurer. 

In 1974, Monzino transformed the villa into a personal retreat where he could meticulously preserve the memories of his exciting life, including his historic achievement of becoming the first Italian to summit Mount Everest.

Join a Lake Como tour and visit Villa del Balbianello and the historic boat La Velarca, which will be open to the public for the first time in September 2024. Your tour includes detailed commentary by a bilingual tour guide fluent in English and Italian. 

Start with a guided tour of Villa del Balbianello, then take a taxi boat to La Velarca for another guided tour. Return by boat to Villa del Balbianello and enjoy free time exploring the garden and taking photos.
