Highlights

This tour allows you to admire the beautiful coasts, the wonderful villas overlooking the lake and the breathtaking views visible only from it. We will leave from Como and travel along the eastern coast along the banks of Blevio, Torno and Nesso. From there we will cross the lake to return towards Como along the western shore with its characteristic sheer villages and where imposing villas stand such as Villa La Punta Villa Oleandra (George Clooney's summer residence) Villa Fontanelle known as Villa Versace, Villa Pizzo and Villa D 'Este just to mention the most famous. There will be no stops on land, except on request and where possible, but we will always be underway, stopping in front of the most beautiful places. The boat belongs to the open category, 620 cm (20.4 feet) long and 190 cm (6.2 feet) wide. Yamaha outboard 115hp. You will have two captains at your disposal (both of us have had a nautical license since 2003). We can't wait to have you on board

About Lake Como

Lake Como is a deep, Y-shaped lake in Lombardy, ringed by steep green mountains, pastel villages, ornate villas and terraced gardens.

Lake Como is shaped like an upside-down Y, with three arms that meet near Bellagio. At more than 400 metres deep, it is one of the deepest lakes in Europe, held between steep wooded slopes that rise towards the Alps. Villages with painted houses and small harbours stand along the water, and a network of ferries links them, making a boat the best way to see the shoreline.

Top-ranked sights in Lake Como: Villa del Balbianello, Villa Melzi Gardens (Giardini di Villa Melzi), Como-Brunate Funicular Railway (Funicolare Como-Brunate).
