Villa del Balbianello student ticket
The guided rooms and gardens at the fare for students aged 19 to 25 who carry a valid student card.
The student fare admits one student aged 19 to 25 to the guided tour of Villa del Balbianello and its gardens, on one date and at one entry time. It is the villa's own student category, so the ticket office expects to see a valid student card together with photo ID.
What this ticket covers
The full visit: about 50 minutes inside the house with a guide, in a group of no more than 16, and then the garden, the terraces and the Loggia Durini for as long as you like until closing.
On the day
Walk out from Lenno (about 25 minutes uphill) or arrive by taxi boat, and reach the ticket office ten to fifteen minutes before your entry time. Show your e-ticket there; staff validate it and tell you when your guided group goes into the house, which can be up to 60 minutes later.
Pushchairs and bulky backpacks stay outside, where staff show you. After the tour, the garden, the terraces and the Loggia Durini are yours until closing time.
Who this ticket is not for
If you are 19 to 25 but not a student, or you will not have your card with you, book the adult fare instead: without the card the student fare is not honoured at the door. Visitors aged 18 or under take the fare for ages 6 to 18.
