The tour includes stops at iconic locations such as Villa del Balbianello and Isola Comacina, where you can enjoy a refreshing swim or a complimentary drink. As one reviewer noted on March 2, 2025:

“Tour with the family - We booked 3 hours tour with Mattia. We decided to do this beautiful experience to enjoy the landscape of the lake. Mattia was our captain and our guide. The boat is really spacious nothing is missing. Experience to do without a doubt. Thank you.”

Embracing the Elements

The weather on May 11th promises a delightful mix of clear skies and mild temperatures, perfect for a morning stroll along the lake. As the sun rises, the air warms up, inviting you to explore the lush gardens and historic villas that dot the shoreline. A visit to the renowned Villa Carlotta offers a chance to immerse yourself in the region’s rich history and botanical beauty.

In the afternoon, the Scenic Boat Tour offers a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. As you sail across the lake, you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and elegant villas. The tour includes an Italian aperitif, allowing you to savor local flavors while basking in the sun. One reviewer, reflecting on their experience in October 2024, shared:

“Even in the rain this was an absolute blast! Truly an unforgettable and incredible experience. First of all, the boat was gorgeous and large enough for well more than the 2 of us (it was our honeymoon). Secondly, Marco was the most incredible captain - knowledgeable, funny, engaging. The provided snacks were delicious and simple and drinks were plentiful. The last ~45 minutes of our trip were very rainy but Marco kept us in good spirits and provided ponchos. An absolute must if you’re in Bellagio - steps away from Hotel Belvedere.”

A Perfect Evening on Lake Como

As the day winds down, the evening offers a chance to unwind and reflect on the day’s adventures. With the sun setting at 8:42 PM, there’s ample time to enjoy a leisurely dinner at one of Tremezzo’s lakeside restaurants.
