Lake Como Shared Boat Tour and Aperitif with Prosecco

This was such a fun tour! Our boat driver/guide, Mario, was fantastic! He says he “only speaks a little English” but I’d say he actually speaks a lot and he speaks it very well. Our group was able to understand clearly when he was pointing out different villas and gardens around the lake. He was great at answering any questions we had too. He played music and offered prosecco about halfway through. There were also nonalcoholic options like water, juice, and coca-cola. He was able to keep the tour entertaining while still being informational. We went in early April, so it was about 50° F, and cloudy, but even with that, it was still a beautiful day and an overall wonderful experience. So, don’t be afraid to go, even on a cloudy day! Keep in mind, it is colder on the water, so make sure to bundle up if you are going in early spring. We booked this tour last minute, about two hours ahead of time, so we appreciated the flexibility of that as well. The meeting point was a little hectic because there were so many groups trying to get on their respective boats. Look for someone in a white shirt with “Salimar Tours” written in blue lettering. You can also ask any of the people in red hats selling other boat tours as they were nice enough to help direct us to the correct check-in people. It’s an experience, you’ll remember for a long time. Go ahead and book it! Thank you, Mario!
