A wonderful afternoon - Stephano and Alberto were fantastic. Alberto was the perfect host and ensured we were connectable and well cared for the whole trip, and Stephano made the trip so enjoyable with his fun facts and history of the various areas on the lakes. Would definitely come back and definitely recommend. A highlight of our trip to Lake Como.

The boat was large and clean, and made for a really nice atmosphere on the lake. I would highly recommend this for solo or small groups, a highlight of my trip so far.

Lake Como cruise - an awesome experience - The 2 hour cruise was perfect to allow us to explore a little of Lake Como. As a family of 4, this was our first time to the region and it was great to see areas from the water. Stefano was awesome…. Local knowledge about the area, many interesting stories and a genuine care and interest for our family were all hi-lights …. Alongside of course the many beautiful sights.

Amazing experience with a spectacular guide. - Our experience was absolutely amazing. The boat was stunning. The lake, towns and views were just spectacular. The greatest part of all though was our guide. Stefano was so kind, funny, and insightful. We could have spent the whole day on the lake. Going this time of the year proved to be perfect, as we had most of the lake just to ourselves.

Amazing experience. Highly Recomended - Stefan and partner were such an amazing boat skipper and tour guide. We had an unforgettable experience viewing the lake from a private boat and was explained in detail each of the important villas we passed along the way. Would highly recomend and come back the next time we come back to como. Thank you
