Overview

My name is Mia and together with my husband Gianni we love showing our lake to our guests. The tour allows you to admire the beautiful coasts of Lake Como, the historic villas that overlook it as well as the wonderful views, in the hidden corners, which can only be seen from the lake. With our four-hour tour, you will arrive in Bellagio (La Perla del Lago) to observe it from the boat or go ashore to stroll through its characteristic alleys. We will then continue to Varenna, another jewel on the lake and then cross the lake until we reach Lenno and Isola Comacina, an ideal place to sip an aperitif or go for a swim thanks to the always calm water that surrounds the island. We will then sail towards Como along the western shore. We will offer you an excellent bottle of prosecco, some snacks and the soft drinks you desire. You don't have to worry about bringing bath towels because you will find them available on the boat. We are waiting for you!

    Mia and her husband were such great hosts! They were able to show us all the sites and share some history during our four hour boat ride while also allowing us time to relax, swim and make a great memory. The snacks and drinks they provided were also lovely, especially the fresh fruit! The boat is small but very, very comfortable. Our weather that day was especially beautiful which also really helped. I can’t recommend this trip enough!

    We had the most lovely experience. The couple who hosted us and gave us the tour were extremely sweet, accommodating and very knowledgeable of the history of Lake Como and its villas. The boat was clean and very comfortable. While I’m sure their normal Costumers are looking for a romantic and quite experience, we had our 3 young kids with us. They were amazing with our kids and did everything to ensure both, they and we, had an awesome time. I highly recommend this service and will definitely book again the next time we are in Lake Como.

    What an amazing way to start our Lake Como vacation! Mia and John showed us all of the beauty and history of the area on a fantastic voyage! The breathtaking views were matched by Mia's terrific stories and the chance to explore a few hidden gems of the area. We loved getting a private tour!
