FAQ
Does the Sept 3rd – 14th 2023 Tour include airfare?
No. I tried it once but found that most people have air miles built up that they want to use. People also have very special ideas as to traveling before and after the Tour, so it makes better sense to book your own flights.

What are the dates of the 2023 Tour?
Check into the Hotel in Como on Sun Sept 3rd. – Check out of the Hotel Canalgrande in Modena on Thur Sept 14th. Tour participants called “Tripmates” should arrive in Como at the Hotel no later than Sun Sept 3rd. Sun night is included in the price of the Tour. I always encourage Tripmates to arrive a couple days early because Como is a great place to decompress from the jet lag and ease into the Italian lifestyle. You can take the fast boat up to Bellagio for lunch and stop off in little villages along the way back. I have a number of rooms reserved at my rate for this on a first come first serve basis so you can be in the same hotel during your stay in Como. Rates are more or less 180Euros for a double and 150 for a single. Remember this is high season and the Monza F1 weekend so rooms are scarce and expensive.

Where do I fly into and out of?
Book your flight to fly into and out of Milan (Malpensa Airport). Malpensa is about a 40-minute town car ride to the Lake Como Hotel. I can recommend a Town Car Company for those so inclined. Email me for the town car recommendation. I always take a town car because I am jet lagged out and just want the trip to end. The Tour ends in Modena. I usually arrange a bus to take folks back to Malpensa or a car can be arranged with the hotel.
Plan your return flight NO SOONER than the afternoon of Thur. Sept 14th.
