Railbookers · Independent rail package

Zurich, Lake Como, and Milan

Eight-day independent rail loop from Zurich through Lake Como to Milan

Illustration of Zurich, Lake Como, and Milan

Railbookers' eight-day independent rail package weaves together two of Europe's most distinctive cities with a lakeside retreat in between. Starting in Zurich, you spend two nights exploring the Swiss city's charming Old Town and cosmopolitan culture. A direct train then carries you south into Italy and down to the shores of Lake Como, where two nights allow you to stay in the town of Como itself, ferry across the water to the picturesque village of Bellagio, and climb up to Brunate for panoramic views of the surrounding Alps and lakes. The final leg brings you to Milan for two full days of urban discovery. Railbookers handles your train tickets and hotel bookings throughout; you navigate each destination at your own pace. This itinerary suits independent travellers who enjoy a mix of city culture and mountain-lake scenery without the structure of a guided group.
