Itinerary
Known as the “Pearl of Lake Como”, Bellagio rises at the point where the two branches of the lake meet. The village enchants with its elegant historic villas, gardens overlooking the water, stone staircases and picturesque alleys full of atmosphere. From the lake it offers one of the most iconic and photographed views of the entire area.
Before reaching the small village of Pescallo, the navigation will skirt the picturesque rock wall located in the east of Bellagio, creating a natural scenery of great impact. Pescallo is an ancient fishing village, intimate and authentic, with houses overlooking the water and a quiet and timeless atmosphere.
Once at Borgo di Rivabianca we will stop for a snack in the quiet waters of the small gulf, a private and relaxing corner nestled between lake and mountains. The village retains an authentic and silent atmosphere, with a few houses overlooking the water and a landscape that has remained intact over time. From the bay you can see the ancient Lierna Castle, a medieval fortified complex overlooking the lake. Today some historical structures and parts of the walls are recognizable, testimony of the ancient defenses of the village.
Visible returning to Varenna on the way back, born as an ancient monastery and transformed over the centuries into a noble residence, it is famous for its long botanical garden that extends along the shore, offering one of the most refined and suggestive views of Lake Como.
In the distance, above Varenna, you can see the Castle of Vezio, an ancient medieval fortification overlooking the lake from the top of the promontory. Its panoramic position offers a strategic view of the two branches of Lake Como and represents one of the most recognizable historical testimonies of the territory.
Arrival at the Varenna wharf and disembarkation operations. The crew will assist guests in the phases of descent from the catamaran, concluding the tour in an orderly and relaxed way, directly in the heart of the village.

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).
