What are people saying about Lake Como

Family 1 hour trip
We loved this! It was great to get closer to the famous villas and hear about them from our guide. All well organised. Note the 1 hour cruise doesn’t go up as far as Bellagio and Barbianello (too far for that timing), but we saw other interesting sights and it was lovely being on the water. It was perfect timing for our family (9 year old son).

Great experience
Great experience, definitely worth a try if in Como. The lake was very busy but our guide was accommodating and working hard to navigate the chaos. Be aware that timings might be slightly off depending how long it takes to dock. May be best to go out early in the morning to avoid a backlog.

We had such a great time...
We had such a great time on the lake learning about the villas, its residents, and the history of the lake itself. We really loved our guide, Stefania, and a little glass of Prosecco was a great touch. Would definitely recommend the one-hour tour as it was the perfect amount of time.

Renting a boat for the...
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.

Amazing
We had a wonderful private boat tour on Lake Como with Marco. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. The boat was comfortable, the views were stunning, and Marco shared interesting information about the area while showing us some beautiful spots around the lake.
A great way to experience Lake Como, and I would definitely recommend Marco to anyone visiting the area.

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.

This was a small group...
This was a small group all day tour - Milan, Lake Cuomo and Lugano. Chiara was our excellent guide and the experience was simply superb. Chiara had deep local knowledge and helped navigate the group through a jam packed itinerary, offered great suggestions for places and food all along the way. Highly recommended for a localized experience.

Great Captain & Boat
Andrea was an awesome captain with great knowledge of the lake. The boat was really nice and the 4-8pm time slot was perfect for the golden hour. They were fastidious in answering all questions you have about your upcoming reservation. Enjoyed our time with him.

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.

Amazing experience
I had not been on a boat since i was really young (maybe 5/6 years old), so I was slightly nervous about being on the water alone. But once id arrived Ignacio explained everything really clearly which instantly eliminated any stress I had. The boat is super easy to drive and there's plenty of space on the lake to drive around and enjoy yourself pretty freely. Was a beautiful experience which I'm glad I booked, and would definitely do it again!
Thank you to Ignacio for making me feel comfortable and being clear with all the important info.

If you don’t want to see...
If you want to see more of Lake Como and Lugano, a city in Switzerland that borders Italy, in one day, this is the right choice. The guide, Adriano, was very patient and knowledgeable. You have a period where you can just explore the area on your own.

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.
