Itinerary stop at Villa Olmo on private day trip from Milan

Villa Olmo is a public site on the shore of Lake Como, built in 1797 in the Neoclassical style. This grand, traditional building is surrounded by pristine gardens, offering stunning views across the lake. The site also hosts a rotating series of art and cultural exhibitions, inviting visitors to learn more about the Villa’s historical significance and current artistic influence. Those interested in architecture will enjoy admiring the building up close and contrasting its design with the Rationalist styles of nearby sites such as Terragni’s Monument to the Fallen. As of late 2025, the villa's interior is closed for restoration, but the gardens and park are open and worth exploring. The park is open from 7:00 to 19:00 in the winter, and 7:00 to 23:00 in the summer.

Itinerary stop at Bergamo on private day trip from Milan

Bergamo features impressive Venetian walls that divide the city into two parts, the Upper and Lower Town. Here, visitors can enjoy the city's Romanesque and Renaissance architecture while indulging in the fine dining and modern amenities of the Lower Town or exploring the narrow, historic streets of the Upper Town. Enjoy a funicular ride between the two parts of the city, and be sure to see the Duomo di Bergamo, the iconic cathedral that dominates the older Upper Town. While you're here, try the Casoncelli Bergamaschi, a meat-stuffed pasta dish with a hearty dose of sage.

We’ll take you back to your starting point.

Amazing driver experience

Our driver, Ibrahim, was wonderful. He drove us from Amman airport to Petra. Our flight was one hour early and he was already waiting for us when we got to the exit of the airport. He was helpful, professional and friendly. We would definitely love to have Ibrahim again and highly recommend him!

Awesome experience! Highly recommend!

So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.

Touring through Tuscany

We had the same driver for our 2 day trip in tuscany. I was able to develop my own itinerary so I could go where we wanted and see the things we wanted. Marco was fantastic!! He opened doors for us and made sure my mother was able to get in and out of the car easily. He had water in the car for us. He was early picking us up both days and brought us as close to the towns as he could. He told us which way to go to enter the cities and then sent me his location so we knew how to get back to him after traveling the streets. Im so happy I decided to get a driver to take us through Tuscany. It took all the worry and anxiety of driving through this region I had never been to and didnt know where to park. Money well spent!

Great transfer option.

I used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.

It was a fantastic trip.

We were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, we’d especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.

Best transport company anywhere

We absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. It’s worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. It’s 5 star rating is well deserved.

Excellent experience in traveling

We traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortable

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation

Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.

Daytrip never disappoints

We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.

Great driver in Egypt

Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.

Yes, the funicular railway connecting Bergamo's Lower and Upper Towns is a highlight of any visit. This historic cable car provides a scenic ride up the hillside, offering excellent views of the city and the surrounding landscape. It's both a practical transportation option and an enjoyable experience in itself.

Bergamo sits approximately 30 miles (50 kilometers) northeast of Milan, making it easily accessible for a day trip. The drive takes about 45 minutes each way, allowing ample time to explore both the historic Upper Town and modern Lower Town while experiencing northern Italy's diverse architectural heritage.

Plan about one hour at Villa Olmo to stroll the gardens, admire the exterior architecture, and enjoy the lake views. At Bergamo, allow 90 minutes to ride the funicular, explore both the Upper and Lower Towns, visit the cathedral, and soak in the medieval atmosphere of the historic center.

Absolutely. The trip offers a diverse architectural journey from Neoclassical elegance at Villa Olmo to Bergamo's medieval and Renaissance structures. Architecture lovers appreciate the contrast between historical preservation in Bergamo's Upper Town and modern development below, showcasing different eras of Italian architectural achievement in one destination.

Don't miss Casoncelli Bergamaschi, a local specialty featuring meat-stuffed pasta with sage butter. The Upper Town has charming trattorias serving traditional Lombard cuisine, while the Lower Town offers modern dining options. Your visit provides excellent opportunities to experience authentic northern Italian flavors and culinary traditions.

Villa Olmo is a stunning Neoclassical villa built in 1797 on Lake Como's shores, surrounded by beautiful gardens with lake views. While the interior currently undergoes restoration, the grounds and park showcase traditional Italian garden design and offer a peaceful contrast to the Rationalist architecture found in nearby Como structures.

Bergamo features remarkable Romanesque and Renaissance architecture within its UNESCO-listed Venetian walls. The Upper Town preserves medieval character with narrow cobblestone streets, while the Lower Town offers modern amenities. The Duomo di Bergamo cathedral dominates the skyline, exemplifying the city's rich architectural heritage and historical significance.

As of late 2025, Villa Olmo's interior remains closed for restoration work. However, the surrounding park and gardens stay open year-round with varying hours. Winter hours run 7:00-19:00, while summer extends to 23:00. The grounds alone make the visit worthwhile, offering peaceful lakeside walks and architectural appreciation.
