About This Book

The Pocket Rough Guide Walks & Tours series helps you discover the world’s most exciting destinations through expert-curated itineraries: a range of walks and tours designed to suit all budgets, interests and trip lengths. These walks, driving tours and site excursions cover the destination’s most classic attractions as well as a range of lesser-known sights, while food and drink stops for refreshments en route are highlighted in boxes. If you’re not sure which one to pick, our Best Walks & Tours for… feature suggests which ones work best for particular interests. The Introduction provides a destination overview, while the Directory supports the walks and tours with all the essential information you need, as well as our pick of where to stay while you are there and select restaurant listings, to complement the more low-key options given in the itineraries.

Help us update

We’ve gone to a lot of effort to ensure that this edition of the Pocket Rough Guide Italian Lakes Walks & Tours is accurate and up-to-date. However, things change – places get “discovered”, opening hours are notoriously fickle, restaurants and rooms raise prices or lower standards. If you feel we’ve got it wrong or left something out, we’d like to know, and if you can remember the address, the price, the hours, the phone number, so much the better.
