| Has anyone been to Bergamo, Italy? Is Bergamo quite easy to get around using public transport, or is a hire care a necessity? | ||||||||||||||||||

I'm taking my girlfriend to Bergamo for a 3-day break. | Thanks for your help!

However Bergamo is small city although very nice and there are not so many things to do for 3 days. Therefore I suggest you to take car hire to go round and see other places near Bergamo (e.g. Brescia, Verona - my favourite italian city, Mantova or Milan). bridy marie coote Post Count: 1 Msg: #3 11 days ago, November 9th 2009 | I have spent about 4 weekend breaks in bergamo - and I love it! | Bergamo is a beautiful city - great place to base yourself - and take an odd day trip here and there! Very easy acccess to Milan - train - roughly 45 minutes. We even did Venice in September for a day -bit of a trek though! I would definately recommend Lago Iseo - take the local bus to Iseo - then take a ferry around Lake Iseo - its so beautiful! Cita Alta (high Bergamo) is worth a visit - lovley place to lunch and wander around! I would definately recommend Bergamo for a short (3 night break) and will definately be back! m Number of Users: 3 | Number of Posts: 3 | |||||||||||
