Exploring Menaggio and Varenna: The Best of Lake Como, Italy
Good morning, good morning [ciao, ciao] my friends from another video here in the beautiful and exotic country of Italia. [Music] I'm here with the one and only Mabibti, Mabelle, babe [bella ciao, bella ciao] my friends and as you saw and if you did see the last video we got ourselves a little Fiat 500 that's going to be coming with us for the cruise I had to set the camera down there for a second because we had the police looking at me but yeah we're actually going to be trying out the ferry this way but in a different way basically you pull up in the spot that you're going to be driving onto the farians so a ferry just left that's why there's only one car ahead of us but there's two other spots for the other Ferry and then you just pick up the ticket so I'm Gonna Save you guys some time because if you saw yesterday's video you saw the process of getting the tickets so I'm gonna snap my fingers and you're gonna see tickets in my hand three to one oh okay never mind that didn't work no tickets well it's because we walked in there and I guess the Ferry's already here so they said just get the tickets on board so hopefully that's the same thing for uh cars all right so we're just cruising right onto the boat here hello hello ciao Fairy Who stops here oh I need to pay for it okay [Music] and all right now when we snap the fingers then the tickets are gonna show and we got it my friends so it was 15.50 euros to take our car over to Varenna and then Menaggio but basically since I guess the car behind me is going to Varenna, we have to pull off and if there's too many cars in line we won't be able to get back on so then I guess we're gonna explore Varenna. Now if there are enough cars we'll pull out come back on and then we'll actually go to
Menaggio and then later on our way back we'll stop in Varenna the one thing we've learned is that like being on this side Varenna or Bellagio for Sunset is the best and then being on the Menaggio side more like the sunrise or midday time seems to be better just based on where the sun comes up and the sun goes down over there so the photos are incredible when you are on the Bellagio side or on the Varenna side around the time of sunset because when it I guess right after Sunset because the Sun goes behind those mountains and then it gives this really really soft light on you that just like makes you glow in a way that's like a photographer's dream. I'm not even a photographer but when you pull out the good old handy dandy cell phone pop a couple good photos you'll be surprised what this little bad boy can do so uh yeah guys we're just gonna cruise on over there and I guess you'll be finding out in just a moment what we're going to be exploring just like we will Full Speed Ahead and here we are arriving now to Varenna. Hello Varenna, hello Varenna hello [Music] all right well guys uh we have just got off now at varana and we are gonna see if we can get back on here but I'm not entirely certain uh we're going to Menaggio loading right back on Grazie Grazie long time no see we're back we're back we're back baby and for you guys that was like one second and we cross the lake crosses I don't know maybe 12 minutes or so and we are arriving back to Menaggio which you guys probably saw in the last video but we're not gonna probably spend as much time in the town center now since we have a car so we're actually going to be able to visit some of the top places to visit around here which are like Villas as well as Gucci's old mansion so it's gonna be a fun little tour around here probably gonna need to find a little Italian breakfast slash lunch given that is 12:56, it's already 1 p.m. So I guess definitely Italian lunch. How does that sound? Sounds great!
Alright we've made to Maggiano that doesn't sound right it sounds like a cheese Menaggio. All right, Menaggio we're back manage we're back like we never left Full Speed Ahead okay well you're responsible for finding us a place to eat right oh yes you guys are getting a taste of what it's like from the fiance to travel with her these are her recommendations her schedule on what we got to do oh got the windshield wipers on this one's like left to right which way is it turn right up to the right then yes oh don't be scared we're gonna be arriving to our first restaurant of the day in just a moment here guys but I want to take one second and stop to share with you that if you're

we have parked and now we're heading to a little breakfast my friends here we go I can imagine that if you're coming here in the summer you might not find parking I mean it wasn't super easy for us to find parking but it wasn't that difficult was the short walk but if you're coming here in the summertime I bet it's nearly impossible to find a parking spot so keep that in mind if you're going to be taking your car with you and if you want to park like down in the city there's just not that many opportunities to uh leave a car here just a couple scattered spots and that's about it but it's so nice here there's like no one on the streets you can literally hear the birds chirping there's one of the birds chirping potato this is the place oh look at these views after you oh thank you all right so we got ourselves a nice little Italiano spot right here hello hello ciao 2C uh table for two people on the balcony please yeah drink a little bit of both please wow this is a nice little Vibe right here great selection yeah baby let's get us as close to the water as we can look at this little patio this is incredible thank you thank you very much thank you baby wow we are literally Seaside right here oh yeah incredible oh they've even got a cool setup right out there that looks like a place to go to maybe that's a hotel with a pool right next to the lake proper Vibe all right looks like we've got the drinks menu here food is this food right there I guess no this is for allergies oh all right oh there's another page oh yeah that looks fantastic I think I would be well let's put it this way guys to prove that pizza is my favorite food I think in every single Vlog I make in Italy I have to test out at least one pizza and we did well on the first Vlog we tried out the very very delicious one and so far I'm gonna hunt to find a Bed Pizza in Italy have not had a chance to find a bad one yeah they've only been delish there is one I had last night in Bellagio and I will tell you it was amazing I didn't end up actually recording that because it was kind of just a last minute little gig but wow yum yum yum we've got Champagnes here we've got wines oh 85 Euros a bottle of 400 euros bottle we go it's a lot so basically with a view like this in Menaggio you'll be paying like 10 to 11 Euros per pizza so overall a very good price I'd say with views like this would you like my love a margarita pizza all right uh let's see how's the uh Delicia delicious yeah so perfect all right smoked cheese Mozzarella ham okay I think I'll do that one and do you want anything else no all right I think that'll be it then all right the hunt for some Za continues look at this this is the photo we've been trying to take for the last couple minutes right there showing off that with the views Pizza has arrived this looks delicious thank you so much look at that we got a nice big Margarita Pizza there and this thing's just loaded up yeah you got your eye on this one already don't you yep here we've got some ham yeah honestly we probably could have split one of these because these are like a thicker crust oh yeah but it looks fantastic oh that is hot like you Pizza Lovers Only at this table that's for sure all right let's see I'm gonna grab a little one to start out with yeah it's pretty much bite-sized for me excuse me cheers let's try this out next Pizza first one of Menaggio that's so good cheese is stringy nice and like it's like a gooey cheese mixed in with that ham and you can taste the smoke flavor it's a much lighter smoked flavor than I was kind of envisioning which I'm happy about because I was a little bit on edge like smoked but let me tell you it hits the spot how's that Margarita very good it's just a bit hot taking my time yes it is hot I'm so hungry and it tastes so good but I'm just ignoring that I'm burning my tongue at the moment I do like that personally though I like my toppings to be under the cheese sometimes or actually no it depends sometimes I like it under the cheese so it can be hidden but in this case it kind of just sandwiches the cheese and gives it a nice chew this is really good and this is a different style pizza than we had in the first Vlog if you guys remember in the first Vlog we had more of like the ultra thin crust I don't even try and say the name of it but I want to say Napoleon but I think I'm wrong so drop a comment below letting me know how wrong I was or how this one is like a thicker crust pizza that's what I was saying like for us to eat one of these whole things on our own is actually like kind of a lot it's like the same thickness as I could find in a frozen pizza in the U.S all right we're making progress through here I figured I'd just try out the margarita pizza here because if the cheese is smoked it's obviously gonna have a bit different of a flavor oh that's nice it's like a much lighter um a lighter cheese I think on this one as you can see there's just a lot more cheese so when you take a bite you get much more of a like a chewy gooey taste to it but also nice a much lighter pizza and you know you can't go wrong when you're looking out eating zaz and seeing that is Lago de Como or Lake Como right now it's a delish meal but we've got a lot to do guys let's head on all right guys and we're heading out from tato so just so you can see here the total for us to have two pizzas and a water came out to about 27 euros and it looks like Restaurante 10 oh that's so yeah I guess there is tax here 10 tax so you guys know wow government's making some good cash out here so yeah guys 27 Euros a pretty good price right here in managio and now where's the next stop Gucci crib Gucci well let's head on out what is it about a 30 minute drive let's do this we're back in the Bugatti let's do this all right here we go okay Italia mabula and Mac are heading around closed unfortunately oh The Villa might be closed so maybe it's just like a high season type thing yeah brother maybe we'll get some beautiful views along the way purse because you're gonna eat a lot of dang food and you're gonna end up you know not having your lipstick on so always carry your lipstick and that way you're fresh again wow thank me later and men too if you like wearing lipstick true around here lots of this Villa carliota so these are all museums then yeah yeah you can wow so you've got we've got a whole list of them to visit then today yeah the highlight like like Garden is just outstanding so yeah I mean look at these like everything in these plants are literally built into the side of the wall yeah yeah look at they have buses on these tiny little roads unreal a skilled driver to be able to drive on these roads it's a really nice area to kind of cruise around through here a lot of cafes right along here places to kind of just sit out I bet this side would be the spot right in this area to just wake up and be there at Sunrise because you get a really nice soft light on this side when the sun's coming up from that way all right I guess we're near Gucci's crib here's how we get there oh right here we're going up to Gucci's I hope this is right another place we'll want to have to turn around if we're going the wrong way well looks like we're not going to Gucci's crib okay well time to reverse out of here I'm just driving this thing straight backwards here I feel like I'm in a James Bond movie made me scared yeah oh have no fear the Fiat Masters here success I'm so sad oh my God why do we do that don't be scared so there's Villa there's another Villa we're we're in Varenna no no well guys that's uh quite the bummer Villa there's a villa here Villa del Bal bianello gudio you like this one this is Guido ingresso in entrance this way oh here let's go I don't know if it's up there yeah here's another Villa called Villa del Bal bianello is this similar to Gucci's that's about oh Gucci's name is no no it's called The Villa it's called balbianos oh okay all right but it was here so it might be open then all right looks like we have located a villa so if you're following the GPS Google Maps guys I think that's just like a private maintenance entrance that's why we were quite confused there and I was surprised like such a famous place didn't have any signage but this makes a lot more sense now that we have found parking right along this road and we've got Villa del balbianello yes opening time so look all right so it looks like March from mid-march to the end of October so that means we just made it in time here 10 a.m to 6 p.m and then the off season it's one hour earlier five years balbiano is actually the house of Gucci I'm sure it's written somewhere yeah all right let's do this Gucci anyway but like that's not waste time oh hold on did I see it says it's closed on Monday closed on Monday and Wednesday and we're here on Wednesday oh no way yeah today's Wednesday right yeah yeah why let me remove it then it's open that's one way to do it that's a good boy through here yeah all right it looks like a good boy wow on the way up we're getting some really incredible views you can see all of the Mountainside here the boats the lake that's the whole area we were just driving along on the way here yeah yeah that's something else basically Mondays and Wednesdays it's closed absolutely ridiculous oh we could have had a little picnic right there too crackers and a Zach very bad news my friends this one is the most famous One oh I hope Wednesday the day we were planning on exploring Villas means they're not all closed but we shall see she basically private entrance to get in here that was the gate we tried to get in over there but I guess you just can't drive in but look at this so 23 Euros adults or if you're a reduced ticket 6 to 25. so your age we can get yours for 15. eight Euros off count only one more year of that [Music] it's good 25 I'm 24. yeah so another year that yeah another year no 18 months yeah birthday uh
October 24th so yeah well that's too bad closed on Monday and Wednesday I guess until next time Gucci his number please call Gucci you can unlock him eight eight don't tell anyone nope didn't work no wow well at least we have beautiful views you can see why Gucci decided to stay here for a bit 14 minutes by all right so we just figured out that the house of balbianello is different from the house of balbiano that's the house of Gucci like they're next to each other I'm not sure yeah because it's not see anything so it might be closed too then you know I don't know I hope not they say it's the one of the most beautiful houses here in uh in Lake Como wow no not enough yeah so I'm like very um disappointed no I'm very I'm so curious to see it you know before I leave like Como just take a moment and like look at how symmetrical that is and how nicely all of the plants are trimmed leading into it like all the the trees over there they're just like different shapes that's so cool to see like modern nature obviously with a bit of a human touch to make that happen she did her best but yesterday we came to this side without the car so we couldn't get here and the uh Villa was open today we came here with a car and the bill is closed you're doing a great job Milo all right back to the car we're gonna snap our fingers to get over there to the other Villa 12 minutes away by walk or by foot and four minutes away by drive three two one and boom guys we have made it to the official house with Gucci there it is on the other side no I'm not entirely certain if it's open but we're still gonna take a little walk over here see what we can find the views around this area are absolutely gorgeous nonetheless no I don't know but this is private wheeler oh it's a private business oh it's private oh okay well this is probably been just for even to wait oh okay all right thank you so much okay all right thank you so much oh one of them touch their mouth oh sorry The Villa located near the mouth of the river perlana is certainly one of the oldest and most Charming residences of the lake already in the 15th century the Geo Veo where owners of the land in a rustic building with a porch at the banks of perlana in the 16th century the property was inherited by Paulo geovio a famous physician and humanist at the court of Pope Leo the 10th who in 1537 de Coro Gracia Laurie described the residents of balbiano as a House of great magnificence but now in ruins in 1597 the complex was bought by tolumio galio Duke of Alvito and in 1637 it was owned by the Abbott Marco galio who started the Reconstruction of the house transforming it into an elegant Villa Gucci [Music] what's Gucci's real name though Gucci I don't know I don't know guys so I was a bit curious because as I was reading this sign Mabelle kept referencing this place as the house of Gucci but she is right it is the house of Gucci in the movie actually but Gucci himself it doesn't seem like and correct me in the comments if I'm wrong it doesn't seem like he lived here it was the filming site and it's now available to book on Airbnb oh really are you paying yeah that doesn't look like it's going to be more than uh you know 50 bucks a night or something yeah so that's this makes a lot more sense so this is actually a private Villa guys so this is where it was filmed and it's a beautiful residence but I guess they do like a lot of like wedding venues and I guess bookings now on Airbnb so basically Lady Gaga was here she was filmed in the house so yeah Gucci she was the wife of Gucci no it really makes me want to go and watch that movie though just so I can be like I was literally outside of where it was filmed you know have you seen the movie oh yeah oh wow I was with you on the plane remember oh but I didn't watch it though yeah because I do remember seeing in the house yeah wow that's gorgeous wow imagine having a set like that that would be incredible I want to be a movie star now I know right sign us up please please subscribe us to uh Netflix or Hollywood so basically my bell found this idea to check out the Gucci Villa or Warehouse of Gucci was filmed from a tick tock where the tick tocker was actually inside exploring so I guess it gave us that perception we were going to be able to go inside but I I wish I'm afraid not I know it looks like such a Vibe but at least we had to walk around the neighborhood here I know you guys didn't get to see much but it's pretty quiet maybe because it's midday maybe it awakens up or maybe the place awakens in the evening but like there's restaurants around here really like cool Italian architecture just uh it doesn't seem like anybody's home today you guys take two take two we are now at Villa Carlota so we're gonna see if Carlota is better luck for us that's just to give you an idea where we're at that's Bellagio over there another beautiful Lake View and more of these trees that are literally like perfectly trimmed to make these shapes Carlotta yellow let's do this and we are I think at the entrance now the cool part is you can actually looks like take a ferry directly to the Villa because we have the navi gazion Lago di Como looks like there's a big field trip over there with all the kids Villa Carlota is oh this way that's not a good sign though it feels eerily quiet at the moment oh we got someone in the big leatheria oh I think it is open finally I got something right guys all right that's great news hello hello thank you I give you the coffee thank you very much thank you so much Grazie welcome to Carlotta wow this is the definition of bougie oh wow now that is the definition of a beautiful Villa I built this plant alone right here costs like 10 grand yeah they're designed in this insane way this is when you're so rich you got all this money to spend on you're like all right how can I make these plants look literally perfect we've even got a little jungle right over here all right we're heading up oh whoa we got a little pet there this is Villa Carlito's mascot right there in a waterfall connected to the house no that is pretty oh another one of the mascots there he goes very elegant laughs it's nice huh oh look at all these Turtles yeah they're all just chillax in here are they real oh yeah they're real they're all just hanging out on top of each other hello there hello there little turtle you got one down there swimming too oh and there's the view look at that you have the fountain just leads right out to the lake just a small little road right in between Carlito would you like to live in a villa like this or you like modern more I love it's like princess Vibes you know honest everyone wants to be every girl Romeo look down you know oh you guys are matching right here yeah same colors the garden wow this is incredible very very picturesque place my friends and don't make the mistake I did at night bring your phone to get a couple photos because the GoPro is good for storytelling all right this is definitely Villa goals right here just come in here pick a fresh lemon then right after pick a fresh orange oh yeah just as you're walking through here you'll literally be able to get a taste of all the vitamins you need but I can tell you these are probably some of the most expensive oranges and lemons given the real estate of this spot that we're walking through but I bet they sure are juicy I want one so badly but I don't think that's part of the Tour all right guys right when you walk down this way we've even found ourselves a vibey little cafe and I wish I would have brought my laptop with me because over in Bellagio there's only a limited speed of Wi-Fi you can get over there but I bet over here it feels like a place out at fast Wi-Fi and I have a huge space to kind of just chill I could easily hang out here for the whole day with the amount of natural light that comes from in here that's a Vibe isn't it gonna get ourselves a nice cup of coffee to get us going what do you think about that yep dress thank you there we go we got ourselves a nice little Viewpoint right here got the farrier a little I guess boat Cruiser right in front of us some orange juice to match the dress there that is unbelievably delicious I wonder if these oranges are the ones we saw up there oh yeah it could be not a chance the orange juice would be way more expensive but if it is that make it that much more exotic not gonna lie that was probably my favorite part well she's my favorite part about being at the Villa but that was my second favorite part having a nice little ice cold orange juice and I'm gonna believe that it was picked from the orange juice trees here just because it adds to the Ambiance but just honestly sitting here guys I don't know if you can tell in the video but like just walking around here is it's such a peaceful well it's a kind of ironic because we have the tractor right here but when the tractor's not here you have such like a peaceful place to just kind of sit there you don't have to do much to be entertained in Italy that's what I found I'm gonna continue this in a second oh yeah but what I was saying the tractor got a little loud and uh against it but just walking around this place because in every direction you can see such a different landscape I mean look at at the top of there you see this snow-capped mountains then you see some like very almost like Yosemite California type land formations then you have the quaint Italian Villages around here just exotic trees very delicious smelling oh yeah flowers beautiful woman wow oh and Vibe Central Bella ciao Italy we're gonna get kicked out all right we are wandering through the Guardians The Gardens of Carly to Villa we got Vel Del felchi I'm sure it's so much work to keep this I mean it's probably a full-time staff and it's keeping the Landscaping perfectly here those people don't get enough appreciation at these places they make it look perfect I mean it's an art to make the plants look this good but you would not believe that right on the other side of here is a lake and like these Ultra luxurious Villas like you literally feel like you're in a jungle with like in the middle of nowhere with a beautifully sculpted set of stairs this is it if only this was one of those moments where you could just smell what I'm smelling oh these flowers smell incredibly good wow [Music] wow the definition of harsh yeah I mean look at how many different types there are there's got to be 30 40 maybe even 50 types count how many there are and drop a comment below one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven children all right we're almost up the Villa look at this this would not be a bad place if you're a multi-millionaire to wake up to have a nice morning coffee you feel like the whole Lake's yours oh and we're not allowed oh from The Edge yeah looks like it oh you can see the uh itself straight in here nope oh no we're straight in there oh we can't there must be another way in although the place needs a bit of a remodel inside there I agree it needs a little bit of touch it's a little touch of a little TLC tender loving care yes seriously I'm kidding that's gorgeous look at this we are entering in to the Villa whoa that's pretty amazing that's not a bad little place to uh wake up and have a cup of joe right there students I know we could we could move in honestly actually this place is probably too big for me I wouldn't be able to feel cozy or you'd have probably like a 10 million dollar heating bill I mean with stone and this tall look at the details oh there's a seashell here oh yeah massive argere it looks like which means shisha look at this wow what a space thank you what do you think is this too big of a house for you you're like the size I mean I I feel like every girl loves a cat drop a comment below if you agree with her ladies it is a cool place but like it feels so big that I don't know if I'd feel cozy yeah you know but like don't get me wrong I would love to stay here oh look at this guy's staying here he seems to be pretty happy so I'll put it look at this guy just chilling you see him right there oh I was like what is he talking about look at this WoW instead of picture frames in this house they're all just sculptures so would you say this right here is also like what what the girl who imagines themselves in the princess castle would like to sit onto not really you change the style all right yeah see like a room like this a couple couches in here get a nice fire going oh and you just look on you of the lake this is that's a Vibe this this room feels cozy to me exactly that's what I was thinking one glass of wine on the balcony yeah this is this is just unreal I feel like I'm in one of those like old churches that has every square inch of it perfectly designed and I loved a lot of paintings here it must be like Como the old days during the old days a Stairway upstairs the children that's a lot of stairs okay the upstairs hangout area wow quite the sight to see it's gonna be a pretty expensive room to outfit this place yeah this is insane this is like your upstairs hallway chandeliers gosh just yeah you do feel like you're so rich you don't even know what to do with yourself in a place like this almost a crash landing right there wow it's just a huge painting with an even better view of the lake a massive mural look at this whoa just a lot of places to uh sit down and relax and stare at the paintings what I would love to know is statistically is when the people lived in here like how much did they actually use each one of these rooms or was there basically one room that they loved the most and they always spent their time in and basically the rest of the rooms are just like Flex rooms when they had dinner parties I would bet that's what it's like because if you have this many rooms how do you even have enough time to get use out of all of them but I guess if you have the uh gold and riches to afford it you might as well get three of these it looks like we're in Charlotte's we're on the princess this definitely feels like a princess's room sure pink setup a little I guess a breakable wall foldable wall spot for the Tea Party that's nice and that was a nice little cruise through the massive Villa it's pretty amazing to imagine that's just like was someone's home to relax beautiful definitely feel the uh essence of the old culture in it the old wealth yeah this is definitely the best part I would say the Villa is it's just the views you get from the outside like that is mind-blowing yeah that just adds to The Prestige feeling I mean look at that you got views of the Bellagio yeah thank you Grazie Grazie ciao nice people here so yeah guys we uh just did a little tour around this place definitely a place I'd recommend if you like views you like kind of the old history of this place and I guess we've gotta get out they want us to go through the gift shop oh no we don't need to scan anything do we all right in case you wanted to buy something harlota until next time until next time and I see our sweet baby right over here there she is oh she's looking good she's shining Sean bright like a diamond there Dolce all right that is probably all we're gonna do for goodbye Villa Carlota speaking of be doing for our exploration of this side of Lake Como now we're going to actually be cruising back over to the ferry oh looks like we just missed it well there'll be another one in 30 minutes on 30 minutes and once we make it over there then we're gonna be heading over to Varenna where we stopped on our way and this will be our first time actually exploring it [Music] and it looks like we've arrived and guys we have 35 minutes to wait so oh it's a bummer but we are gonna get a beautiful I guess fairy Cruise right around the sunset time but uh you just missed like 35 minutes of this like really really nice landscape illumination from the golden colors yeah that's all right Boom the ferry has arrived we're gonna be loading up now look at this guy

edge of the ferry and we're racing this lady right here foreign it's like a boat car yeah so funny all right the car boat is getting close all right that is Verena at Golden hour looking quite good all right the car boat is coming straight into Verona if you see the sign right there and we've got this lady who's gonna make sure we get off quite nicely all right we're just gonna basically pump

we can walk right through the Beautiful coastal town of Varenna and there's our Ferry goodbye ciao ciao my friends until next time I will say now that we are walking along this area I see why they say Varenna is the spot to be during sunset I mean just look at these silhouettes of the mountains from over here you get that soft light I was telling you guys we timed this out quite well to make it here right around this time it's just such a beautiful experience to stroll along the coast right here I mean look at this I feel like I'm literally in a movie right now what about you wow I feel like

proper Vibe that's for sure well welcome to Verena and so we got the selfie Squad right there now they're going for a little Cruise how do we get ourselves on one of those boats wow yeah look how pretty this this is definitely I think I read this in the blog post that varen is like the most picturesque of all of them and to be honest I agree with that like none of them none of the other ones have this like walkway at least that we've come across so far that's all along here I mean you have gelaterias you got restaurants beautiful little Sunset spots guys let me just tell you look at this this spot right here overlooking if you're looking for a photo spot I mean I'm not very photogenic here but uh let's show them a bell look at that just right there really really nice shots and composition especially if you're wearing an orange dress or a yellow dress or a red dress you're going to be matching quite nicely with the backgrounds there so when the Sun hits the moon like in your oh I forgot the lyrics I don't know wow I hope this isn't as enjoyable for you guys as it is for us like obviously these are different than my normal videos like so I'm not interacting with many locals but there's just not as many opportunities as other countries but like just the scenery yeah I am in awe everywhere we go like the uh various like types of architecture very like typical Italian style here you know you have little ice creameries everywhere you have the little boats stairway right there people getting picks and you know the plants are kind of just grown into the buildings because they've been around for so long silhouette yeah just like there's so many angles to look at this place that it's a great place to just kind of stroll around and you know look through the uh for you guys looking through the uh TV and just seeing the beauty this place has we could step right down in there to go swimming somebody like what wow moments yeah you know yeah so true there's a famous um restaurant over here so it's a very same spot yeah are we gonna go yeah it's over there all right well I think I think this might be the spot to post up at because it seems like this is the uh Sunset spot that everyone goes to it is really beautiful if we go out on Sunset wow is this the restaurant you're talking about yeah this one oh okay wow yeah that's a certified Vibe right there look at this this is why you guys come to Varenna if you saw the last video when we were on that side you just don't get that feeling I mentioned like five times now but I just want to emphasize that so you guys plan your days out accordingly the popular one is like upstairs over here oh now we're talking I can just imagine how busy this place is in the summertime when it's High season what do you think up here thank you wow this is dreamy that's incredible it seems like we're one of the only ones here oh are they are you closing oh we're a little late no way all right well we're losing our chance to see the best views in town from here guys just look at this incredible I'm gonna show this scene so many times wow wow got the guys down there just skipping rocks decided to take a seat right here at bar Moro Moto this is the place yeah I think that's probably just part of it because it's the same concept where we were just at and guys I'm gonna overlay a clip we they just got engaged straight up there so I turned over and I was like oh my God she's tearing up that's and he looked like he was on one knee so grabbed a quick little video of them and I'll overlay it here with those pretty special to witness that moment yeah yeah and uh props to him he chose a great location yeah he did but uh yeah guys basically uh this spot right here oh that's all in Italian but but your pay looks like 12 to 15 euros up to 22 Euros in entree and we just ordered ourselves a little aperol Spritz because you know that's the drink of Italy aside from wine okay looks like we're upgrading to the front row seat it's normally something that would have taken a reservation to get oh yes wow there we go exactly what we were looking for we got our spritzes right there yes please grazi grazi my friend oh yeah thank you thank you a couple little chips there to start out I think this is uh picture perfect cheers oh that's quite good cheers oh my God first aperol Spritz here in Italy let me tell you very very tasty it's living up to the hype what do you think you really can't beat views like that I'm gonna be shocked if anywhere else during this trip around Italy we find places that have even better views in this I mean this is this is surreal and the drinks taste even better then cheers my friends this is the definition of like an Instagram worthy dinner what do you think yes as mobile says the phone eats first that's your quote voila oh it's pretty nice what do you think get a little ago in there um all right so this is the final meal we we aren't super hungry obviously because you guys saw how big of a pizza we had yeah we got a little bruschetta to toss up on there and then a nice sized Panini here got some cheeses some arugula and some sort of ham look at that bread that's as fresh as it gets bad you gotta be ready for a nice big bite oh we're losing some of the tomatoes there oh thank you delish that smells amazing you can tell it's cooked perfectly thank you baby all right at this point we've tried out quite a few different Cuisines now we're gonna move over to the bruschetta I was expecting actually that maybe like a little cheese or something else built into there but we'll see what it's like with just the tomatoes fresh tomatoes mixes right in there with the olive oil as you can see on the bread that goes down smooth and oh it looks like she's she's ready for it uh unfortunately the battery just died here guys but I took a nice big bite I'm gonna do it again for the video um let me try that out too freaking delicious I explained it so well the first time but basically you have a chew on the inside with the bread you have this ham arugula and then this like mozzarella cheese that just infuses into it a bit messy spilled half fit on me but it's so so delicious wow it's so good yeah she's digging it over here I'm in with these views you could honestly put anything on the plate right now and it would taste so good all right guys and for a little uh dinner here at two aperol spritzes and some water and bruschetta and the sandwich came out to about 33 euros so pretty great for the views we got what'd they
