Karalyn_L, Oct 2026

Wonderful way to explore around Lake Como!

This was a wonderful way to explore around Lake Como! I would not have wanted to navigate all the train and ferry schedules myself, and being able to skip to the front of the line every time was definitely a perk! We enjoyed having plenty of time to explore at Varrenna and Bellagio, and the hidden gorge at Ballano was beautiful. Our guide Alice did an amazing job the entire day and made the trip so enjoyable!

An Exceptional Experience

We had the most beautiful experience! Visiting lake como and doing this excursion with Mateo was definetely the hightlight of our trip. First, he was very flexible especially after we missed our train and he rescheduled us for a different time on the same day. Second, the service Mateo provided was 10/10. He was very sweet, patient and even stopped a few times so we could do pictures. Also, we felt safe at all times especially with my baby boy who also came with us. I totally recommend this company for your next visit to Lake como and will def contact them next time I visit. Thank you!!!

Lake Como Boat Cruise, Bellagio & Lugano Day Trip from Milan

Gregory_I, Oct 2026

Wonderful Experience

I had an amazing experience on this tour visiting Lake Como, Bellagio, and Lugano, Switzerland! The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and each destination offered something special. It’s my first time doing this type of trip with a group and tour guide and wasn’t sure if it’s for me especially for the time advertised. It was wonderful and our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and made the entire experience enjoyable from beginning to end. It’s actually less than 10.5 hours and the time was just right. Everything was well organized, and it was a wonderful way to explore these beautiful destinations in one day. I truly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Milan. If you’re looking for a memorable day trip with beautiful views and great experiences, this tour is definitely worth it!

From Como: Lugano, Bellagio and Como exclusive Boat Tour

Tim_C, Oct 2026

Great time in Como

This is the best way to see Lugano & Lake Como. Andrea was knowledgable and engaging. It made for a great day and I couldn't have imagined how we would have seen so much of the lake and Bellagio without being on the tour. And knowing that we wouldn't miss a boat because we were part of a tour was a huge relief when the lines were so long that those waiting were missing multiple ferries. Highly recommend for a great way to see the sites!

David Is The Best!

I had been looking for a boat tour at Lake Como for a few days now. I finally decided to try this one and I couldn’t be more pleased with my decision. As soon as I booked, Yuna reached out to me providing details about my tour. Today, for our 12pm tour, we were greeted by Pierto and immediately boarded the boat. DAVID was just amazing!!!! He was knowledgeable, kind and truly made the experience unforgettable. I would not have wanted any other tour guide other than him. We are so appreciative of the great experience and would not change a thing. THANK YOU DAVID!!!!!🇮🇹

1H - 4H Private Boat Tour on Lake Como 6 pax

Mgangemd, Sept 2026

3h boat tour with sunset

The experience was overall great. Giorgio was very knowledgeable. I recommend doing g this in the late afternoon to include sunset. I was disappointed that the boat was not a traditional wooden boat that you see on the lake. What made it more tacky, is that they applied fake wood to make it look like the others.

Como Boat ride

The meeting point changed from when I booked the excursion. We had not realized an email was sent a couple of hours before letting me know the pick up spot but that information did not change on Viators reminders or app. Luckily, we got booked for another trip a couple of hours later. The boat ride was great! Beautiful villas and only 2 other people were on our boat. It felt semi private.
