The best boat tour on Lake Como!

We had an amazing time on this boat tour and would definitely do it again! Cruising around Lake Como, enjoying great music, delicious prosecco, and taking in the breathtaking views of the lake’s most beautiful spots made for an unforgettable day. Our captain was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone had a fantastic time from start to finish. He shared interesting facts about Lake Como, kept the atmosphere fun, and even made sure our glasses were never empty. If you’re visiting Lake Como, this experience is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!

Incredible private boat tour

This boat trip was one of the highlights of our stay at Lake Como. Cruising across the lake on such a beautiful traditional wooden boat was a truly special experience. The peaceful atmosphere, incredible views, and hidden corners we discovered along the way made the day unforgettable. Our captain made the trip even more memorable. He was incredibly welcoming, shared so many interesting stories, and showed us some of the most beautiful places around the lake that you can only fully appreciate from the water. We loved every little detail — from the delicious Prosecco to the freedom of choosing our own music and creating the perfect atmosphere for our girls’ day. It felt relaxed, personal, and absolutely unique. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We had the best time and would happily join you again on our next visit to Lake Como!

Unforgettable Lake Como Boat Experience!

Our captain was absolutely incredible, so kind, attentive, and full of fascinating stories about the lake and the surrounding towns. We got to see stunning spots that are 100% worth exploring from the water. The wooden boat itself is something truly special and perfect for a relaxing day on the lake. The Prosecco was sooo delicious and there was always more if you wanted! We also loved that we could play our own music, which made our girls’ trip even more fun and personal. Thank you for this wonderful day. We’ll definitely be back!!!

Perfect tour on Lake Como

Perfect boat, we took the tour at a time recommended by them for the sunset with an aperitif. Perfect, abundant and good aperitif. Extremely inclusive crew available for everything and friendly, the tour lasted longer than expected as there was time and we extended the visit. Unforgettable experience that I will repeat in the future.
