Como is easy to see in a day on foot: the old town, the lakefront and the Brunate funicular are all close together. A weekend adds the ferry and Cernobbio.
- Morning: the cathedral and Broletto in Piazza Duomo, then the old town streets.
- Late morning: the lakefront from Piazza Cavour to the Tempio Voltiano and Villa Olmo.
- Afternoon: the funicular up to Brunate for the view.
- Evening: sunset on the lakefront and dinner in the old town.
On day two, take the ferry to Cernobbio or further up the lake, or walk along the lake to Cernobbio, about 5 km.
