Very bad organisation at Sresa embarquement - We booked on line, (internet navigazione servizio publico), two tickets to go from Stresa to Isola Bella. It was precised that departure from Stresa was possible at 9 a.m
First desappointment but not the least, when we arrive at the office to get the tickets, we have had to pay an extra cost for the company. This point was not mentionned on the web site.
Second, it was impossible to take a boat before 10 a.m unless we saw many groups take boats from 9 a.m
These points are not acceptable and you should update your informations on your web site or at least consider your clients much more better than you do.
