    You're off for a day's tooling around Lake Como, one of Italy's most beautiful lakes, in the shadow of the snowcapped Alps - a mecca for the well-heeled on holiday since ancient Roman times. An hour-long drive takes you to a nearby town, where you'll board a boat for bellissima Bellagio. Known as "the Pearl of the Lake", you'll have a bit of free time to explore this gem as you wish. Take in the lake views and explore the centuries-old buildings, stone lanes, and cobbled stairways lined with shops. A boat cruise shows you more of Lake Como, which the poet William Wordsworth described as "a treasure whom the earth keeps to herself". The forested shoreline is punctuated by small towns with ancient stone bell towers and opulent villas. Disembark your boat for a lakeside lunch at a local venue before heading back to Milan late this afternoon. Please Note: Touring on Days 2 and 3 may be switched.

At 35 miles long, it's the longest railway tunnel in the world, a major feat of engineering that took 17 years to complete. Because you're heading north, you may enter the tunnel in one kind of weather and exit to find that the weather has completely changed. In Basel, embark your riverboat; attend a Discovery Briefing and enjoy cocktails in the lounge before dining onboard your ship. ...
