ACCOMMODATION

The best way to get to these islands is by boat from Luino. You can by a tourist ticket (biglietto turistico) for about €18 per person which will cover the return trip to the islands and the boat trips between the islands.

The first island is Isola Madre. This only has one restaurant so it is best to make use of your time in the Botanic gardens (cost €10 per person). The next boat leaves for Isola Superiore just over an hour later.

Isola Superiore has a small village on it with a wider choice of lakeside cafes and restaurants. Isola Bella is a very short boat trip from Isola Superiore and this also has more cafes as well as botanic gardens.

If you spend and hour on Superior and an hour on Isola Bella you can catch the last boat to Luino, which leaves at about 3.30pm and arrives just after 5pm. www.selfcateringitaly.co.uk
