Ricky’s boat tour was a once in a lifetime experience, a must do if you are going to Lake Como. He was very knowledgeable about the area, and very funny! We were a group of friends in the area for a wedding, and we will never forget this experience. I would highly recommend taking Ricky’s boat tour!

A 10 star view of Lake Como!!

If you want a breathtaking view of Lake Como from a local perspective take Ricky’s boat tour. He was born in Lake Como so you will get a historical perspective from the buildings to the homes, travel through history and get the view through a locals eyes. You will learn about the homes from the past, to the celebrities who reside on the lake. It’s an excellent way to take in the beauty of Lake Como. The restaurant he recommended was fantastic! If we could give you 10 stars we would! Bravo Ricky! Iris&Armando

Lake Como Boat Tour

This was our very first time visiting Lake Como, and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to experience it than with Ricky. From the moment we stepped onto the boat, very easy going like we were exploring the lake with a friend rather than a guide.
