Beautiful Bella Isola island with a palace and garden that exceeds expectations..plan approx. two hours to visit both. And don't make a mistake of buying a three islands boat tour for 15 euro (get a standard ferry). They don't allow u to choose which island to go first to, and you will be stuck waiting to be picked up one time per hour with only ur company boat.

Borromean Islands The Borromean Islands are a group of three small islands and two islets in the Italian part of Lago Maggiore, located in the western arm of the lake, between Verbania to the north and Stresa to the south. Together totalling just 50 acres in area, they are a major local tourist attraction for their picturesque setting. Their name derives from the Borromeo family, which started acquiring them in the early 16th century and still owns the majority of them today.
