Our Lake Como boat tour was a highlight of our trip! From start to finish, everything was perfect. The boat was very comfortable, with plenty of space to relax and take in the views. Cruising past the charming villages, historic villas, and stunning gardens felt like stepping into a postcard.
Vlad, our captain was fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the lake. He shared fascinating stories and local insights that made the experience so much better. We loved hearing about the history behind Villa Balbianello and other villas around the lake. Highly recommend!

Don't hesitate to book this. Vlad was a great host and captain, friendly and accommodating. Small but comfortable vessel with blankets and pillows! And prosecco, yes!

Nice day on the water with Captain Vlad. He is very patient, knowledgeable about the area and affable. Vlad showed us the important villas and areas. The pickup area is centrally situated. Apertivo was a nice touch.

Vlad was a great tour guide. Very personable and accommodating. He was able to move our tour up to have a much nicer experience since the weather did not look great for the next day. Highly recommend a tour with Vlad!

Easy to book - would recommend going if you want a great tour on a sunny day. Very good guide - explained everything, also knew everything about the area & its history.

Absolutely amazing!!! My husband and I had a wonderful time with Vlad as our captain on their brand new boat. It was beautiful and comfortable. Lake Como was a little bit chilly and Vlad had blankets and towels for us to use. We also had a couple of glasses of Prosecco. 10/10 experience. I will say the ferry ride to get to Tremezzo from Como took us 2 hours and that was a surprise but still a beautiful journey.

Vlad was wonderful! He was informative providing us some history and stories about the area and of course the lake. He was on time and made sure we were comfortable throughout our tour. Just a side note: if the water is rough, you will need to be very careful and mobile getting into the boat off the very small dock.

We never got to go, the water was too choppy. Our trip host was excellent about communicating and updating us. Unfortunately we couldn't reschedule it because we were leaving Comp the next morning.

Vlad was an amazing guide and truly showed us the beauty of Lake Como! We enjoyed our journey and he was very knowledgeable about everything around us. He was super helpful and we would go back on this tour if we were to do lake como! It’s also very reasonably priced and it was just us and one other person on the boat so it was basically a private experience!!! 10/10 would do again. Thank you Vlad!
Response from Host, Oct 2025
It was my pleasure. Hope to see you again!

Vlad was a great tour guide!! He was very knowledgeable and kind. The company was great that we met on the boat. Very seamless trip!

Our guide was Vlad, who was great!! We luckily had the boat to ourselves which made the experience even more amazing. Vlad stopped the boat for a short time allowing us to sit on the back and dip our feet in (we are not hugely into swimming so this suited us perfectly!). The boat was also beautiful, and we understand it was only a week old. Loved every minute!
