Groupon's Guide To Milan
A magnet for designers, artists, photographers, and models, Milan is one of the world's fashion centres, boasting an elegant backdrop rooted in Roman times.
From its imposing historic centre and fashion districts to the countryside outskirts, Milan is a rare and appealing mixture of ancient values and contemporary lifestyle. The Navigli area features an abundance of restaurants, ranging from pizzerias to fine seafood haunts, while Piazza del Duomo, boasting the Milan Cathedral, one of the largest cathedrals in the world guarding the city’s cobblestoned streets since 1385, opens to shops, theatres, museums, and galleries in the city centre. Big fashion names can be found in the Corso Buenos Aires or Corso Vercelli, and cultural sights are plentiful, including attractions such as the Sforza Castle. Art lovers will rejoice at the chance to take in Italian art from the 14th century to modern times at Pinacoteca di Brera. Milan has a humid subtropical climate with hot days of summer and humid rather cold days of winter. During summer, the temperatures are expected to be around 21°C and sometimes a sudden rain accompanied by thunderstorms will thrill the cityscape. Spring and autumn come with moderate weather conditions when the nights will be colder than the days, and rainy moments will be frequent. Winter knocks at the door with temperatures around 7°C, but the sun won't shine like in the previous months.
Groupon's Guide To Lake Como
The third largest lake in Italy, Como blooms in the fresh breezes of the Alps, exposing flourishing wildlife in a vast and verdant scenery. With ancient lakeside villas and landscaped parks scattered around, the region bears witness to the regal past and decadent wealth of the Roman Empire.
Crystal-clear waters invite holidaymakers to set sail and go yachting or make the most of the refreshing winds from the Alps and try out a session of windsurfing or kitesurfing at one of the on-shore sporting centres. Lakeside hiking trails will lead to the Tremezzo village, where the manicured gardens of the medieval Villa Carlotta fill the air with sweet perfume. Amid rustling olive groves and exotic woods on the western edge of the lake, The Sacro Monte di Ossuccio attracts cultural sightseers with its 15 Baroque-inspired chapels leading up to the famous sanctuary. Similarly inspiring historic sights await at the Gothic Como Cathedral, which features imposing Renaissance architecture and statues.
Groupon's Guide To St. Moritz
In addition to the magnificent mountain scenery and giant glaciers, the Upper Engadine is also a paradise for active summer vacations.
This part of Switzerland offers its visitors the opportunity to explore 500 km of marked trails, 400 km of mountain bike trails, refreshing lakes, mountain crystal streams and virgin forests. In the neighbouring area visitors will also find two golf courses with 18 holes, while water sports facilities are available on Lake Silvaplana.
Groupon's Guide To Bernina Express
The Bernina Express, a marvel of engineering, glides through the Swiss Alps, offering panoramic views of breathtaking landscapes. Majestic peaks, snow-covered and enchanting, tower above meadows and forests, creating a fairytale-like scene. As the train winds through alpine towns and crosses viaducts, it reveals cascading waterfalls and dizzying heights. Impeccable service and attentive staff enhance the journey, sharing stories that bring the landscape to life. The final stop in Tirano, nestled in the Italian Alps, echoes the region's Roman Empire legacy. Cobblestone streets and ancient architecture invite visitors to bask in the town's rich heritage. The Bernina Express is a harmonious blend of natural beauty and cultural marvels. It evokes wonder and reminds us of the treasures that await those who embark on this extraordinary adventure.
Lake Como Boat Tour
Get on board of a wonderful boat and admire the breathtaking view of Lake Como! You will meet your captain at Sant'Agostino pier and you will leave for your pleasant experience.
Along the way you will have the opportunity to admire some of the main villas and attractions of the first basin of the lake. The Captain will accompany you to discover the wonders of Lake Como and will provide explanations on all the beautiful villas and the main attractions that can be enjoyed from the lake only from a boat.
You will also have the opportunity to stop and enjoy the wonderful panorama and take unique photographs from the perspective of the Lake in absolute tranquility. Moreover, in the case of a full boat, there is the possibility of extending the tour for 30 minutes in order to reach the famous Nesso waterfalls, and the Captain will offer you some wine to toast together.
