This is an amazing boat...

Daniel_C, May 2023

This is an amazing boat tour to do while visiting Lake Como. The views were incredible and the captain was extremely knowledgeable and welcoming. We hit a little rain during our trip but they still made it an awesome experience and even set up a little cover so we wouldn’t get hit by the rain. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Lake Como

Beautiful sunset cruise. The Skipper was so pleasant and knowledgeable, highly recommend to everyone.

Amazing honeymoon activity!

Lindsey_G, July 2022

My husband and I did this sailboat while on our honeymoon and it was our favorite thing we did! Federico is an amazing host - he took photos for us, gave us champagne and finger foods, played great music and was very knowledgeable about all the villas and happenings in Lake Como! He also dropped us off at our hotel's dock in Varenna where we were staying, which was an amazing personal touch. The boat took off in Bellagio, about 15 min (nice & safe) walk from where the ferry drops you off if traveling from another city in Lake Como. Highly recommend doing this activity when in Lake Como!

We had an amazing sail...

It was a beautiful hike...

Brooke_C, May 2022

It was a beautiful hike in Bellagio to arrive at the pick up spot and the skipper was ready for us! We had a wonderful relaxing time cruising around the lake and enjoying the changing light with a glass of Prosecco.

Beautiful sailing adventure with Federico

Kevin_C, May 2022

This was a fantastic experience on beautiful Lake Como with Federico. Seeing the lake itself, Bellagio, Villa del Balbianello, and other towns while on the sailboat was a truly amazing enhancement to our stay in Bellagio. Federico, a longtime resident of the area, was very kind and shared many fun insights about Bellagio and the Lake Como region. The Prosecco and food provided was delightful, as well. Highly recommend this experience.

Would definitely visit again!

Zahra_A, Apr 2022

Fabulous sailing experience

SandiA_R, July 2021

We loved our time sailing on Lake Como with Frederico! We were able to do a little swimming and then enjoyed Prosecco and an aperitif while enjoying the sites around Bellagio. This was the perfect sailing cruise and we are so happy we took advantage of this. Fredrico was also very informative about the area and sites around the lake!

Beautiful sunset tour

Abigail, Sept 2020

Had a great time on this tour, the views were outstanding and Federico was very knowledgable. The aperitif was a lovely addition too! Also Federico and his wife were so helpful, I have MS so struggle with muscle strength and balance and they were very helpful to my mobility needs and were able to escort me and help me on and off the Yacht. We loved this experience and would highly recommend it, it’s very reasonably priced for a private tour.

Thank you very much

One of all time favorites

60805Anonymous, Oct 2019

This is the best and most amazing way to see and experience the lakes. Our host was amazing, engaging, kind and delightful and our family of 3 thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Our teenage daughter was even engrossed in our discussion about starting your own business in Italy, the challenges and perseverance it took to get started. Kudos to our host. The boat is wonderful and we were even treated to a bottle of prosecco and cheese and meats. Best part - we got our Christmas picture from the boat. Absolutely awesome and loved it!!!
