Itinerary
Laglio is a small municipality overlooking the western shore of Lake Como and is part of the Riva Romantica. From abroad you can admire majestic buildings such as Villa La Punta (home of Igor Kogan, Putin's right-hand man) and Villa Oleandra (home of the famous actor George Clooney).
The yellow-painted four-story building was built in the first half of the 19th century in neoclassical style by the eccentric Lord Charles Currie, a visiting Englishman who fell in love with Lake Como. In 1977 it was purchased by the famous Italian designer Gianni Versace and became his holiday home on Lake Como
It is a Renaissance residence located on the shores of the lake. Both the villa and the 25-acre park that surrounds it have been substantially modified compared to the original construction. Since 1873, the complex has been used as a luxury hotel and today Villa d'Este is in the ranking of the 10 most luxurious hotels in the world.
Cernobbio stands on the western shore of Lake Como, the place is known for the beauty of the landscape which has inspired many artists and in addition to art and culture, the village of Cernobbio offers a suggestive panorama and a relaxing environment, on a human scale, ideal for those who want to spend quiet and pleasant days.
Built in the mid-nineteenth century, it has an external lift that connects it to the Como road. It was commissioned by the Russian prince of the same name who, after detention in Siberia, came to live in Belvio. To gain time, he had the rocks on the shore eliminated by exploding mines.
The municipality of Torno is located on the western shore of the lake, about 6 kilometers south of Como, and is characterized by narrow cobbled streets, colorful houses, ancient stately villas and breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and the lake.

Villa del Balbianello is a historic building located in Lenno, it is considered the "Jewel" of Lake Como, being one of the most beautiful villas present. Charming architecture and lush gardens with panoramic views, perfect for special events.

Villa Erba is a place of great historical importance, home to the Museum of Luchino Visconti's Rooms, as well as an exhibition and conference centre. Overlooking the lake, it is located in a wonderful centuries-old park and a green area overlooking the lake which once served as a riding track is also part of the property.
Mandarin Oriental, Lake Como is an oasis of tranquility, located on the sunny shores of Lake Como. Dating back to the 19th century, Villa Roccabruna is located in the heart of the resort and has been expertly renovated to create a sense of modern Italian elegance with a delicate oriental charm.
Villa Pliniana is a villa originally built in 1574, on a pre-existing although more modest building, in the territory of the municipality of Torno, in the province of Como, on the right bank of the western branch of Lake Como
The façade of Villa Melzi is simple and regular, consisting of a double flight of stairs and decorated with four Egyptian-style lions. On the sides of the external terrace there are two sixteenth-century marble statues, representing Apollo and Meleager. In front of the villa, a large fountain overlooking the lake.
Tremezzo, the middle ground, develops partly along the shores of the lake, among eighteenth- and nineteenth-century villas, and partly along the slopes of the mountains behind. Among the ancient stately homes, Villa Carlotta stands out with its wonderful botanical park rich in various tree and floral species and you can also admire the luxurious Grand Hotel Tremezzo

This was an amazing experience. It was myself, my husband, and our 20 month old. We were picked up near our Air BnB in Laglio. We did the 3 hour tour, which was the perfect amount of time to see the main sights, have a stop in Varenna for coffee and a croissant, and still not lose the attention of the toddler. Our captain was extremely knowledgeable about the entire area and provided a depth of information that enhanced the rest of our time there. His recommendation to go to Pigra for dinner and for the view was spot on, though we drove instead of taking the funicular. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone.
Thank you very much, we are happy that you enjoyed the experience. We hope to see you soon . Thanks again B&S Boat Service Team

I wish my wife and I had booked this sooner. It is a local company with so much knowledge of the lake. The boat was pristine, like something out of a James Bond movie. Will absolutely use B&S next time we are on Lake Como
