• 5Must do

  Surreal experience, we done the sunset tour and the views were amazing. Marco was very knowledgable of the area, and done the best to make the activity special.

• 5Professional and honest

  Marco is a very nice guy, and honest. We booked with him 1 hr tour, and he contacted me to worn us of the bad weather at our time. He told me it’s better to come early to enjoy the tour and to prevent the unexpected weather forecast. Anyway we arrived at our time, and the wind started to picked up, we went to the boat and spent 30min, then he decided to cancel the trip because the weather was very bad. It was a very good decision from him. He was very honest, and refunded us what we paid. Thanks Marco.

• 5Great Experience on Lake Como!

  We had a great experience with Marco and Como Blue Lake. They were extremely accommodating and picked us up at Bellagio for an extra fee. That saved us a lot of time and hassle. Marco was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us a wonderful tour. He was also accommodating to our requests as it was a hot day and we wanted to swim a bit more than originally planned. The boat was also fantastic and comfortable. The experience was a dream day! I highly recommend Como Blue Lake for your boat tour.

• 5Don’t skip this one!

  We’ve been travelling for 2 weeks, and this, by far was the highlight of our trip. Make sure you take the 4-hour experience, at a minimum! Marco was our captain who made the day fun, informative and he sang along with us all day as my kids blared their music. We will definitely take this adventure again the next time we are in Italy!

• 5Outstanding! Fun cruise...

  Outstanding! Fun cruise around lake Como. Marco is a gem. He showed us a few extra landmarks we asked about. He was patient and helpful while I had a bit of difficulty finding parking. If you are driving to this activity, leave some time to navigate Como and find parking.

• 5An unforgettable experience

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).
