The Lombardy / Lake Como Area
Certainly visit Bellagio, also Mennagio, Varena and Lenno. There are some stunning views if you go around the lakeside by car. There are some heavenly views if you go around by boat. Both are worthwhile.
Villa Carlotta at Cadenabbia and also the Villa Balbianello near Lenno (where scenes for Casino Royale and Star Wars were filmed) are renowned worldwide attractions.
Como Town is well worth visiting - it has a magnificent Duomo, designer shopping and also has a silk museum. There are many excellent restaurants. Boats can be taken from Como to all areas of the lake.
Milan is reachable by car in 45 minutes and 30 minutes by train. The train stops very close to the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele where you can spend time in the splendid shops and elegant coffe-shops. Piazza della Scala is close by and you can see the famous La Scala Opera House here. From here you can walk to the Cenacolo Vinciano and see Da Vinci's painting of the Last Supper.
Milan is home to the best football teams in Italy.
