Lake Como and Villa del Balbianello, New travel Guide by Mark Dermul

This book is a detailed guide for a perfect holiday in the Lake Como area to spot the famous filming locations, used by George Lucas in the Star Wars Saga.

Mark Dermul, who also led expeditions to Tunisia and Finse (Norway), explains in clear chapters where to go and what to visit to make sure you find every location used in the movies.
Discover the lake retreat of Naboo, where Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala get married, as well as the Picknick Meadow and Padmé's house.
As you can find in this book, there are quite a few locations used, but the most prominent was Villa del Balbianello, a splendid villa on the Balbianello promontory.

There is even a little bonus for James Bond and George Clooney fans.
