About This Tour

A full day on Lake Como with the boat and captain entirely at your disposal: eight hours to enjoy the lake at your own pace, in the truest spirit of dolce far niente. It is our most complete experience, designed for those who want a day tailored to them and wish to feel like a VIP for a day.

The itinerary is built together with you, taking in all the most iconic places on the lake. From the water we will admire Villa Monastero, the gardens of Villa Melzi, the elegance of Villa La Cassinella and the grandeur of Villa Balbiano, follow the shore of Lezzeno to the spectacular Nesso Waterfall and pass by Comacina Island, the only island on Lake Como, Lenno and Villa Carlotta.

And there will be plenty of time to go ashore: a stroll of about 40 minutes through the streets of Bellagio, a stop of about 40 minutes to visit Villa del Balbianello (entrance ticket not included) and about an hour and a half in Tremezzo, perfect for lunch or a walk along the lakefront.

For lunch you can choose one of the lake's typical, characterful restaurants: it is not included in the tour price, but we can reserve it for you when you book.

A unique, intimate and unhurried experience among the endless beauties of Lake Como.

The itinerary and stops are indicative: if you would like to do something different or reach a place close to your heart, we can take you straight there, within the time booked.
