Getting around Stresa

Stresa is small, walkable, and safe! We managed to walk everywhere when we visited in April. If you do find yourself needing a cab while in town, we recommend booking it at least 30 minutes in advance. Please note, Stresa does not have Uber. On the day of the wedding, we will be arranging shuttle services to and from the venue.
