About This Tour

ROYAL TOUR

THE JAMES BOND EXPERIENCE

Lake Como, like you've never seen it before.

Climb aboard Lario Water Taxi and let yourself be accompanied on a journey through elegance, cinema and iconic landscapes, in the footsteps of James Bond Casino Royale.

We will start to discover some of the most evocative corners of the lake centre, passing through Cadenabbia and Tremezzo, with the famous Grand Hotel Tremezzo, until we reach Villa del Balbianello, one of the most famous film locations on Lake Como, also starring in Casino Royale, as well as Star Wars.

The navigation will continue towards Nesso, one of the most spectacular places on the Lario, where we will admire from the lake the famous Ponte della Civera and the suggestive Orrido di Nesso waterfall, set among the rocky walls.

And of course, the journey can only end on the trail of the world of 007, between historic villas, cinematic glimpses and panoramas that have made Lake Como one of the most fascinating destinations in the world.

A private tour. A legendary lake. A story to be lived.
