What travelers are saying

This is a wonderful lake, slightly bigger than Com and it has some lovely places to visit. the PalaCe, Isola Bella is still managed by the family and has a fabulous art collection.

It is, I believe the second largest of the Italian lakes, Garda being the largest.

Lv Malpensa airport every 2 hours, directly to Lake Maggiore avoids a stop/transfer in Milano.

Malpensa bus transport direct to Lake Maggiore, CHEAP & FAST, avoid Milano transfer

Want CHEAP, FAST & DIRECT bus transport to Lake Maggiore? Use ALIBUS! Lv Malpensa airport every 2 hours, directly to Lake Maggiore avoids a stop/transfer in Milano. Fast, 1-1.5 hr long. It’s cheaper and more direct than a train or limo! Even locals use it.

TOP TIP FOR YOUNG FAMILIES

Reef shoes or rubber scuffs are an excellent idea for young children to enjoy the shores and swimming that all the Italian Northern Lakes offer. All shire lines stony and mossy. Sheep rocks. No sand at waterline. Wish I had bought reef shoes we purchased...More
