Tour description

Walking tour with a private tour guide in the botanical gardens of Villa Taranto is a tour in Lake Maggiore. Walking tour with a private tour guide in the botanical gardens of Villa Taranto has a rating of 5.00/5.00.

The gardens of Villa Taranto in Verbania, between Intra and Pallanza, are known the world over for their great beauty and the huge number of plant species they contain.

The result of a labour of love on the part of the Scottish Captain McEacharn in 1931, the myriad of colours and scents the marvellously landscaped garden offers continues to enchant visitors from March to October.

From spring to autumn there are always flowers in bloom, with “special events” for certain species which are particularly spectacular in their season: the tulip week is in April, dahlias are at their best between July and October.

We will discover together this beautiful garden and we will focus on particular botanical species.

From Stresa, the gardens are reachable by boat: the shipping company “Navigazione Lago Maggiore” has a landing stage called “Villa Taranto” right in front of the Gardens entrance.
