LAKE COMO

We flew into Milan from Paris for $97 a person and rented a van from Noleggiare Car Rentalto to go through Switzerland. The customer service was incredible. Our flights got delayed so we arrived at the rental car place late but when we called at the airport they were willing to stay later to help us out. We ended up returning the rental car at a different airport in Milan but they were so helpful in the process. If you end up doing this keep in mind that there are added fees for extra drivers, insurance, premium country fee (for visiting Switzerland) and for returning the van at Belgamo instead of Malpensa Airport. We also had to pay $42 Euros for a Swiss Travel Pass on the van.

We stayed the night at The Lake Como Youth Hostel La Primula, Menaggio which was amazing! We woke up and looked out our window to a view of the lake from up on a hill. The booking and check in/out process was easy and they offered free breakfast. Highly recommend! We had breakfast at Cafe del Pess and had a beautiful view of the lake. Then we spent the morning/early afternoon just walking around the town.
