  • The most convenient airport for visiting Lake Como from the UK is Milan Malpensa (MXP) as it is well connected to UK cities and about an hour’s drive from the lake. Bergamo (BGY) is another option, often used by budget airlines, and just slightly further away. From any of these, you can reach Lake Como by car, train, or private transfer.

  • We will be providing transport from guest accommodation to the venue, so most guests won’t need to arrange their own travel on the day.

    📍 Location
    Villa Regina Teodolinda is located in the village of Laglio on the western shore of Lake Como, around 20-25 minutes from Como town.

    🚗 By car or taxi

    • The easiest option is a short lakeside drive from Como (approx. 15-20 minutes).

    • Taxis are available but can be limited in the area, especially late at night.

    🚌 By bus

    • Regular buses run from Como to Laglio (e.g. from Como San Giovanni station).

    • The journey takes around 20-25 minutes, followed by a short walk to the villa.

    ⛴️ By ferry + short transfer

    • You can take a ferry across Lake Como (a beautiful option!) to nearby stops such as Pognana Lario.

    • From there, you’ll need a short taxi ride to the villa.

    🚶‍♂️Final access

    • The villa is not directly next to a major station or ferry terminal, so a short final transfer (taxi or shuttle) is usually required.

  • Lake Como is best explored by a mix of boats, taxis, and local transport:

    • 🚤 Ferries & Water Taxis: The most scenic way to travel! Regular ferries run between towns like Como, Bellagio, and Varenna. For more flexibility, private water taxis can be booked in advance.

    • 🚗 Car or Taxi: Handy for exploring inland villages or late-night returns. Roads can be narrow and winding – parking is limited in small towns.

    • 🚌 Local Buses: Reliable and affordable, especially for getting between nearby towns like Laglio, Cernobbio, and Como.

    • 🚶‍♀️ Walking: Many villages are compact and lovely to explore on foot – bring comfy shoes for cobblestones!
