Rent a Como
A city on a human scale, where time seems to have crystallized in a niche nestled between the lake and the mountains, Como is a small oasis of tranquility nestled in nature with all the makings of an enchanting destination for anyone looking for a well-accessible escape from the city bustle for a while. If you are planning a visit to Como, leave your car near the station and then continue your itinerary on foot: your starting point can be a long walk along the lakefront to enjoy the natural panorama offered by the Lario. From the War Memorial you can also get a bird’s-eye view of Como and its lake. In a short walk you can reach the Tempio Voltiano, a small temple dedicated to Alessandro Volta, who was born here, which houses a museum dedicated to him. Como is then distinguished by the many 18th-century villas that were erected there during Habsburg rule: some of these can be visited, but you can admire them all from the outside in sequence along the left bank of the lake. Neoclassical is not the only style representative of the city’s architecture, however: there are also examples of Gothic, such as Como Cathedral and Palazzo Broletto, and medieval is also Porta Torre, an ancient gateway to the city built for defensive purposes that stands nearby Piazza San Fedele, the heart of Como’s historic center. Once you have explored the center, perhaps enjoying one of the rich and tasty local dishes such as pizzoccheri or polenta oncia, you can take the Como-Brunate funicular to reach a fabulous viewpoint with a walk of about a kilometer.
While the center of Como, which is rather small, can be visited in just one day, otherwise the city’s surroundings are rich in attractions, especially natural ones, whose exploration may take longer. Renting a car in Como, if you don’t have one at your disposal, will help you manage your travels with maximum flexibility in terms of travel distances and travel schedules, choosing a vehicle that suits your needs and those of your passengers. The fleet of our car rental in Como is designed to meet very different needs, such as those of a family with children who need ample luggage to store strollers and bulky luggage or those, for example, of a single person or a couple who are interested above all in optimizing their trips at an affordable price. Keep in mind that with Locauto the rates for renting your car in Como also depend on the duration of your rental-from a minimum of one hour to many consecutive days-and can therefore be tailored to all budgets. Entering your rental dates and pick-up and drop-off times in the search engine on this page will immediately return a complete list of available vehicles, with the best rate automatically applied. Some examples of wonderful places within a stone’s throw of Como that you can easily reach by car? One of the most enchanting villages is Lenno, from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Lavedo peninsula and where you can visit the stunning Villa del Balbianello with its garden-museum. Then, an hour’s drive from Como, on the fork between the west and east branches of Lake Como, is Bellagio, known for its flower-filled lakefront and the English-style gardens of Villa Melzi. In Varenna, on the other hand, the Vezio Castle, an ancient military fortress nestled in a landscape full of olive trees, is worth a visit. In addition to visiting the most beautiful villages in the province, of course, you can choose to totally immerse yourself in nature by choosing one of the countless trekking routes that branch off from Como and nearby towns and that become a breeze to reach by car.
