Drive the Shoreline: Rent a Citroën Spacetourer in Lecco for Lake Como Adventures

On the eastern arm of Lake Como, Lecco offers a gateway to sharp limestone ridges, quiet village piers, and hairpin roads that reward slow, scenic driving. Itineris’ Citroën Spacetourer, available from a pickup at CORSO MATTEOTTI 12 , 23900 Lecco (LC), turns that driving into a social, comfortable part of the trip. The modern EMP2 platform underpins a modular interior offered in three lengths—XS (461 cm), M (496 cm) and XL (531 cm)—that adapts to day trips, group outings, or equipment-hauling for alpine hikes on the nearby Grigne massif. Slide open the large lateral doors and the panoramic glass roof throws daylight across flexible rows of seats: second- and third-row seats move and detach to create cargo room or independent passenger space; business-oriented Business Lounge trims provide four independent rear armchairs for a polished group shuttle. Practical touches—well-reviewed plastics and a driver seat with rotary recline plus steering adjustment—make longer drives over the lake’s shoreline tolerable even for taller drivers, although very tall drivers should try the vehicle at pickup for cockpit comfort. The Spacetourer comes insured for RCI and includes roadside assistance; note that collision and vandalism coverage are not included. A refundable security deposit of €1,500 is accepted only via credit/debit card pre-authorization, and reservations require a valid ID and driver’s license. Itineris’ booking notes emphasize that rain is not a valid reason to cancel—good to know during unpredictable Alpine weather. Why pick this van for a Lake Como itinerary? It blends space, versatility and sensible economy: remove seats for bike racks or backpacks bound for the Sentiero del Viandante, tuck surf-skis into the XL for a dawn paddle, or ferry a family to viewpoints above Pescarenico. The vehicle’s size choices mean you can opt for a tighter city fit (XS) or full kit transport (XL). Local geography amplifies the drive: Lake Como’s glacially carved basin narrows into the Lecco branch, with exposed Grigne limestone cliffs rising to the east. That geology creates the steep roads and panoramic pullouts that make a roomy, comfortable van more than a convenience—it’s a way to experience the landscape with gear and companions in tow. Pickup address is CORSO MATTEOTTI 12 , 23900 Lecco (LC). Book through the provided reservation link and arrive prepared with ID, license and a card for the deposit. Rentals run from one to thirty days, so plan itineraries that include parking at municipal lots or designated ferry terminals; avoid driving into centro storico where ZTL restrictions limit access. Test-fit luggage and rooftop options at pickup to ensure smooth lakeside itinerary.
