This is an unbelievably beautiful area of Italy. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with our guide Lina and excellent driver Fabio. Lina melded seamlessly from English to Spanish to accommodate the Spanish speakers on board…and everyone learned some Italian! We explored Lake Como, Bellagio, and an extra spot was Lugano Switzerland. Lugano is actually part of another tour, but it was added on. Como is just spectacular, set on the beautiful lake with the majestic Alps in the background. We got to experience it both by land and by sea. This is an excellent day trip from Milan.
Tour guide Riccardo , was well organised and kept the tour on time throughout with care and humour . He was very knowledgeable and took care of the bus passengers kindly . Our bus driver. , Massimillian, did a good job taking us to places sometimes difficult to reach , with a quiet calmness . It was a lovely trip to beautiful lakes and lakeside towns , and countryside , a lovely day .
This was an absolute five star day. Because of scheduling issues, we were upgraded to a tour that included Lugano. Everything about the day was perfect, from our guide and driver to the tours and towns.
This is an adventure you need to experience, ours was upgraded due to an unforseen mishap with our original tour. We were upgraded at no additional cost with the trip to Switzerland included. Our tour guide Ricardo was AMAZING! Funny, Interactive and Passionate with all the quests. Truly, he went above and beyond. Speaking a number of different languages, he made everyone feel comfortable....Ask for Ricardo with the Wander in Italy Team"
Amato was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable, friendly and a great asset to your company!!!! Fabio was an excellent driver. 5 stars all the way!!!!!
Great day trip to Como and Bellagio. Enjoyed it all. Great guide and enough time to see both places and included a boat trip too.
Great guide. Bellagio just lovely. A good tour all round with lovely scenery. Only disappointment was some of the others in the tour arrived late to start the tour and then delayed the tour in bellagio.
Everything was very good, punctual, and the tourist guide Lina very professional and beautiful person, everything I knew very beautiful, Lake Como, Bellagio, Lugano
The bus was clean with AC nice seats good driver. The view was scenic very nice trip. The guide was a person of few words. Very limited information about the places we drove by, with very limited interesting facts and details. Overall she was just stating the obvious facts that we noticed without her. Like “ Lake Como is beautiful” and such type of comments.
The entire experience was wonderful. Especially cruising on Lake Como, visiting Bellagio and also Switzerland. I would do it again.
