Renting a boat for the day was hands-down the best part of our Lake Como trip. The booking was easy, the boat was clean and ready right on time, and the staff gave us a quick rundown so we felt confident driving ourselves. Cruising between the villages, swimming off the back, and taking in the views from the water is something you just can’t get any other way. Highly recommend — would do it again in a heartbeat.

Fun boat rental in Como!
Super easy rental on Lake Como. It was nice to be able to drive the boat ourselves and do what we wanted to do. Felippo was very personable and took the time to show us the boat. Would definitely recommend doing this, I only wish we had reserved it for longer!

Exceptional hospitality
Stefano was our captain and guide, and he truly saved our day. Our train from Milan was delayed twice, causing us to arrive nearly two hours late for our scheduled tour. Throughout the delay, Stefano stayed in constant contact with me via WhatsApp and Viator and graciously waited for us to arrive.
Despite the inconvenience, he skipped his own break to ensure we could still enjoy the full two-hour experience. He gave us a wonderful tour of Lake Como, sharing fascinating stories about the area's history, pointing out landmarks, and even showing us the fishermen's village where he lives.
Our day did not start off well, but thanks to Stefano's exceptional hospitality, flexibility, and kindness, it turned into one of the highlights of our trip. We had a truly enjoyable experience on Lake Como, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a memorable and authentic tour.

Our guide/captain,...
Our guide/captain, Corrado was amazing. He stopped midway and we enjoyed a light lunch and some drinks at a local restaurant on the Lake.
Highly recommend as a great way to see the various towns in a relaxing and laid back way while also enjoying Prosecco.

Como
We had a wonderful experience with our guide, Simone. He was a wonderful guide. He took us, of course, to the beautiful areas, but also customized our boat ride to explore very fun areas for my family from ages 6 to 20. The boat was smooth, clean, and exactly what we were looking for. Whether you are a local or a tourist, I would highly recommend Simone and his company to assist you on a beautiful ride.

Good/Bad
The boat tour itself was great. Our guides were wonderful and we had a covered area to protect us from the sun. The set up and finding our guide, however, was not great. We got to our point and we were told we had to come back in an hour because the boat wasn’t ready. Once we came back, there was nobody there at the doctor greeted us and it took a while to get everything settled.

Shame on Viator
We got to our meeting point only to find out our name wasn’t on the list and the bus was full—I had an email that our experience started in 5 minutes. LUCKY a party of six didn’t show and we got on another bus. Viator said since we got on another tour, they owed us nothing. The tour itself was amazing and fabulous guide.

Around the Lake
The trip is perfect just around 1hr - that's more than enough to see around the lake. You always get a seat with good view - you can't get it in the bigger boats. And the driver Fabio was super nice, telling us stories about the villas and gave some tips what to see around.

If you want a tour of...
If you want a tour of Lake Como's highlights, this is it. Between bus and boat, you get to see and visit interesting towns and travel the lake. It also skips over the border to Switzerland. The knowledgeable guide made sure we didn't miss a detail and got to some interesting restaurants.

A must!A wonderful opportunity to experience Lake Como on one zone we were met by Andrea who is lovely and explained eve
Wonderful opportunity to experience Lake Como on one’s own. We were met by Andrea who was lovely and explained everything to us. The boat was i. excellent condition and very easy to manage. We arrived a little late because it was hard to find parking and he very graciously extended the trip for us. Definitely worth doing, but if you arrive by car, give yourself extra time to park.

A wonderful day on the lake and a great value!
Amazing day experience! Wish we took the boat out for longer (we only did 2 hours) so that we could see hotel Carlotta. But otherwise, our boat captain Luca was so nice and very knowledgeable. It will be something that we remember forever!
Definitely a good value for what you pay for. On the dock they were selling the same price per person but just for 1 hour.
The boat was nice and was perfect to zip around in. We didn’t feel rushed at all and had the boat for 2 hours.

Brilliant bike tour.
This is a great tour. The ebikes were great so not too much effort required over the hills. Scenery was magnificent and the guide great. This is a really great experience. Overall a great day out. If you are contemplating a bike tour, This is the one.
