Bellinzona & Lugano (Switzerland)

Bellinzona is known for its ancient origin (late first century). We'll begin the day here, enjoying some of its rich history, a walk around the city center and market, take in several historic buildings, and enjoy a guided tour.

After our morning in Bellinzona, we'll head off for beautiful Lugano, the largest town in the holiday region of Ticino and situated on gorgeous Lake Lugano. Lugano is Switzerland's third most important financial center and a conference, banking and business center. It is also a town of parks and flowers, villas and sacred buildings. With Mediterranean flair, Lugano offers all the advantages of a world-class city, combined with the quaintness of a small town.
