The scenic boat ride is enjoyable. The guide was friendly and informational. There were no beverages provided, however.

This tour is mostly audio. Although the tour guide chimes in at times, you mainly
Listened to a recorded tour. The boat ride itself is beautiful!

This 1 hour tour on a classic wooden motorboat was absolutely unforgettable!
While cruising across the glittering waters we admired many stunning villas and charming villages along the way. The highlight was stopping in front of George Clooney’s villa!
The boat itself was beautiful, and the audioguide talked about the fascinating history of the lake and its landmarks. It was the perfect way to check out the beauty of Lake Como in style!
I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

A wonderful experience on Lake Como. The one-hour boat sharing tour was perfect for enjoying the most iconic views: the elegant villas, the green mountains and the unique charm of the city from the water. The tour was comfortable, well organized and with the ideal duration to know the essentials without haste. The Mood on board was nice and relaxed, which made the experience even more special. I totally recommend this boat tour for those who want to live the magic of Como in an authentic and accessible way.
