Bellagio is a municipality on a promontory near Lake Como, Italy. It is known for its narrow cobbled streets, elegant buildings and the Villa Serbelloni Park, an 18th-century terraced garden overlooking the lake.
Villa del Balbianello is a historic building located in Lenno, on the shores of Lake Como. The villa is located on the tip of the Lavedo peninsula, a promontory that extends into the Larian body of water and which took the name of "Balbianello" from the building itself.
Villa Carlotta is a building located in the municipality of Tremezzina in the province of Como and located on the shores of Lake Como. The villa is famous both for the art collections preserved inside and for the vast botanical garden that surrounds it, part of the Grandi Giardini Italiani circuit.
Tremezzo is a picturesque village located on the splendid shores of Lake Como, in Lombardy. Known for its historic villas, such as Villa Carlotta and Villa del Balbianello, Tremezzo offers an enchanting atmosphere and breathtaking views of the lake. The town is characterized by narrow streets, charming squares and a panoramic lakeside promenade, perfect for walking and enjoying the beauty of the lake landscape.
Villa Melzi d'Eril, located in Bellagio, "the pearl of Lake Como", is a neoclassical masterpiece immersed in a centuries-old park. The villa, built between 1808 and 1810 at the behest of Francesco Melzi d'Eril, Duke of Lodi and vice-president of the Napoleonic Italian Republic, boasts elegant and refined architecture. The interior, embellished with frescoes, stuccoes and valuable works of art, can unfortunately only be partially visited. The real jewel of Villa Melzi is the English park, considered one of the most beautiful in Italy. An oasis of peace and beauty, where paths wind through flower-lined avenues, statues, caves and centuries-old trees. The panoramic view of Lake Como is breathtaking and makes the park an ideal place for a romantic walk or a moment of relaxation.
Villa Balbiano, located on the western shore of Lake Como, in the municipality of Ossuccio, is an enchanting historic residence dating back to the 18th century. The villa stands on a promontory that juts out into the lake, offering a breathtaking view of the surrounding landscape. History: The villa was built in 1787 on a pre-existing Franciscan monastery by Cardinal Angelo Maria Durini, who had also obtained the nearby Villa del Balbiano from the Giovio family. Cardinal Durini passionately dedicated himself to the expansion and embellishment of the villa, creating an Italian garden with statues, fountains and tree-lined avenues. Over the centuries, the villa has had numerous owners, including Count Guido Monzino, explorer and mountaineer, who enriched it with works of art and memorabilia from his expeditions. Architecture: The villa has a neoclassical façade with an ashlar portal and two bell towers, a remnant of the ancient church of the Franciscan monastery.

Davide was so easy to communicate with throughout the booking process and made it such an enjoyable trip! He had the perfect itinerary for our time window and shared so much interesting info about the Bellagio & surrounding Lake Como area. Would highly recommend!
Bruce was wonderful, so excited to take us around in his Mastercraft to his favorite spot. Pickup point very close to Punta restaurant was easy and a common place for other boats to pick up, highly recommended. He called our driver to help arrange a pickup when we were dropped off. One of the highlights of a 2 week trip
We had the two hour tour with Davide and it was perfect! We saw all the most beautiful spots on the lake, enjoyed a smooth ride and a good balance of funny stories, informative commentary, and silent moments to enjoy the scenery. Highly recommended.
Davide gave us the perfect Lake Como experience. He had incredible energy and was so FUN. He showed us all of the grand villas while keeping the energy fun and light. Since he grew up here, he also gave us his personal relationship to the each property which was always fascinating. The tour was on a modern jet boat with a canopy. Perfect for 2-6 people. We stopped in the middle of the tour and swam around a bit which was a welcome break to the sun and heat of summer in Bellagio. We just had the best time. Highly recommend touring with Davide!!
Bruce with BWT was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, he made the pickup process incredibly easy and accommodating. Throughout the tour, he showed us all the famous villas, beautiful sights, and hidden gems around Lake Como while sharing great information about the area. One of the highlights was that he arranged for us to stop and enjoy a swim in the lake, which made the experience even more memorable. Bruce was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure our family had a fantastic time. If you’re looking for a boat tour on Lake Como, I highly recommend reaching out to Bruce at BWT in Bellagio. The price was very fair, the service was outstanding, and the overall experience exceeded our expectations. Five stars!
We ended up heading up to Lake Como kind of last minute from Milan while we were on our family vacation. Davide happened to have an opening for a one hour boat tour. So glad we found him. Such a nice guy. He grew up in Bellagio so had a really amazing knowledge and personal touch to the tour. Literally couldn’t recommend him more

We had an absolutely wonderful time on this boat tour. The views were breathtaking, and we discovered beautiful places that we would never have seen from the shore. The owner was incredibly kind, professional, and made us feel very welcome from the very beginning. This was truly one of the most memorable experiences of our stay on Lake Como. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a special and unforgettable experience. Thank you for such a wonderful time – we will definitely recommend it to our friends and family! The owner went above and beyond to make our experience special, and we were touched by his kindness and attention to detail. Magda i Arek🤗
We had a fabulous trip with Davide on Lake Como. Relaxing ride and he is a native of Lake Como area and was very knowledgeable and had interesting stories and history to share. Our daughters in their 20s enjoyed sitting on the front of the boat and playing their music while we rode in the back with the wind blowing in our faces. Lovely relaxing trip.
23' Master Craft boat with an open bow, seating up front. Bruce has lived here forever and knows the lake like the back of his hand. In the top of experiences we've enjoyed during our time in the area. Bruce, his boat, and knowledge are a 10+. We highly recommend him.
