WE'RE federico & BRITTANY
Ciao!
Lake Como has long been a destination filled with endless inspiration and romance. For La Dolce Guida’s founders, Federico and Brittany Pigorini, their love affair with Lake Como started long, long ago. And it eventually became something even more — a place to call home.
With an eye for beautiful designs and the impeccable ability to create meaningful moments, Brittany spent over 16 years crafting unforgettable experiences for her bridal clients. But, she couldn’t shake her dream of slowing down. Amid the fast pace of luxurious events and grand celebrations, Brittany found herself yearning for a deeper connection — to her work, her clients, and the world.
Throughout their annual trips to visit Federico’s family in Italy, Brittany became captivated by the country’s timeless charm and serene lifestyle. After thoughtful consideration, their family relocated to Lake Como in 2021. Alongside their two young children, they quickly started immersing themselves in the rich culture and slow rhythms of life in Italy.
Each curated tour invites you to experience the area’s rich culture, stunning landscapes, and hidden treasures without compromising its natural beauty.
Drawing on her extensive background in luxury event and travel planning, Brittany brings an unparalleled combination of expertise, artistry, and heartfelt dedication to each tour itinerary.
Federico loves to share his homeland with visitors from all over the globe, captivating them with his humor and insider local knowledge of Lake Como.
Our name translates to "The Sweet Drive," capturing the essence of what we offer — thoughtful, personal, and beautifully designed travel experiences that guide you toward the sweetest moments in life.
While boat trips are a quintessential part of the Lake Como experience, we offer a unique alternative that allows you to go deeper. Many of the lake’s most iconic sights and hidden gems are difficult to access without the right logistical knowledge. With La Dolce Guida, you’ll experience the best of both worlds — unparalleled access by land and the flexibility to explore the less traveled paths.
As locals, we bring unparalleled knowledge and passion to every tour, ensuring you experience Lake Como as more than a destination — but as a living story. From the tucked-away trattorias to the artisans who carry on centuries-old traditions, we help you uncover the heart and soul of Italy in a way that resonates deeply. We design tours that emphasize authenticity, iconic landmarks, and the unique allure of Lake Como.
