Lake Como, Italy has all the ingredients to make for the perfect holiday.

Parco della Preistoria (Prehistoric Park)  - where the children can find out about the dinosaurs that ruled the earth.  There are life-sized reproductions of prehistoric animals throughout the park as well as an exhibition on fossils and minerals and a maze to get lost in!  This park is part of the larger Parco dell'Adda Sud. Children of all ages will love it  There is a train that goes around the park for people unable to walk round (and of course those who refuse to walk).  Dogs are allowed as long as they are on a lead.
