24 Hours in Lake Como (PHOTOS)

Elizabeth Brady

Spring in Italy's Lake Como (or Lago di Como) is an enchanting time for a visit. The crowds – which clog the roads on the lake's perimeters, and populate the water with boats – have not yet arrived en masse, the weather is gorgeous and hotel discounts are available. I recently tagged on an extra day to a week long stay in Italy, and took the time to decompress at Como's stunning Grand Hotel Tremezzo.
