Would like to travel from Lucerne to Lake Como area for a couple of days in early October. How far? Need advice on small boutique hotels in the area. Should I be going to a smaller lake? Will need to travel from Lake Como to Zurich. Best travel method? What should I see in Lucerne, Lake Como and Zurich?

You may get more responses under General Europe, Italy, and Switzerland. This section is for folks to review past travels. You may also get more responses with a more detailed title.
See the RS Guidebooks for Italy and Switzerland- they contain great answers to your questions.
Trains will best serve your needs.
Are you riding the Bernina Express?
Book lodging asap once you decide, as early Oct is still a very popular month.
Enjoy these wonderful areas. Safe travels.
