Rainy Day in Como: Best Indoor Things to Do
Rain on Lake Como spoils nothing — it's the perfect excuse for indoor activities. Here are our favourites, starting with the tastiest.
1. A cooking class (our favourite)
What better way to spend a rainy day than getting your hands in the flour? A cooking class in Como is warm, convivial and 100% indoors: you leave with a real skill and a great meal.
2. Museums and the Duomo
The Como Cathedral (Duomo) and the town's small museums (silk, science) are perfect to explore under cover.
3. A historic café
Settle into a café in the centre for a cappuccino and a pastry: Italian living at its best, especially in the rain.
4. A wine tasting
Indoors, around a table: a guided wine tasting with cured meats and cheeses is ideal for a rainy afternoon.
5. Shopping and craft
Como is famous for silk and craftsmanship: the centre's shops are great for staying dry while you browse.
Key takeaways
- Book the cooking class ahead — rainy days are in demand.
- Most activities are a few minutes' walk apart in the centre.
