Lake Country
The great northern lakes stretch like sparkling, glass-topped
vistas within a sequence of long, cavernous valleys descending from
the Alps. Lake Como, Lake Maggiore and Lake Garda emit their unique
sparkle onto the magnificent surrounding landscape, and in turn,
attract diverse tourists to their banks. Younger travellers enjoy
the sailboarding and nightlife experience of Lake Garda, while
sophisticates from Milan are drawn to the magnetism of Lake Como.
Maggiore provides a tranquil, relaxed respite and can be enjoyed
from the comforts of its surrounding luxury hotels.
Information & Facts
Language
The official language of Italy is Italian. English is
understood in the larger cities but not in the more remote parts of
the country.
Money
The Euro (EUR) is the official currency, which is divided into
100 cents. Those arriving in Italy with foreign currency can obtain
Euros through any bank, ATM or bureaux de change. ATMs are
widespread. Travellers cheques can be exchanged with ease in the
large cities, not so in the smaller towns. Credit cards are
accepted in upmarket establishments and shops around the cities.
Banks are closed on weekends, but tend to have better rates than
casas de cambios.
