Renting a car
The Lake Como road is famous for having enchanting panoramas but at the same time for being a long and winding road.
If you are staying in the center of Bellagio we advise you not to rent a car, it is not necessary to move around and above all it is usually difficult to find a parking space.
If you are staying outside the center (for example in Civenna) the car is recommended as in Bellagio it is not always easy to find a local taxi available and the buses do not run many times.
