As you cruise along the shoreline, admire the dramatic alpine scenery, elegant lakeside villas and charming villages that make this region world-famous.

During this three-hour tour, your experienced captain will guide you through some of the lake’s most picturesque areas, sharing stories and local insights while you enjoy the ride from comfortable seating and sunbathing spots at the rear of the boat. The itinerary is flexible and designed to give you the best possible view of Lake Como’s highlights, with opportunities to slow down for photos, scenic cruising and refreshing swim stops where floating docks allow easy access back on board.
