Thank you so much for your wonderful words — we're thrilled to hear that your time with Elena and the boat tour was such a memorable experience!
When visiting Lake Como, one of the must-do experiences is indeed a boat tour aboard our luxurious Venetian-style water taxis, gliding across the lake and admiring the magnificent villas along the shore. It’s the perfect way to truly take in the beauty and elegance of this unique destination.
And of course, no visit is complete without savoring the flavors of our local cuisine, served in elegant lakefront restaurants where tradition meets luxury.
We can’t wait to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure on the lake!
Warmest regards

Lake Como
We were in the spot that we needed to be at the time indicated, but no one was there. Only after our tour was 30 min late did we get a phone call that we were in the wrong spot. I did not have availability to my email and our tour guide sent a message via email so no way for me to get it. We missed out on 30 min of our tour on Lake Como and really didn't get to see much at all before we had to go back for our lunch.
Operator response
The day of the tour we had the necessity to change the location of the meeting point. We informed all our guests. But unfortunately we got no reply from this only couple, that we eventually found 30 minutes later. This is the reason why the experience departed late and the cruise only lasted half of the time.This is not a guided tour but I decided to offer the group my service joining them on the boat and given all of them even a guided experience at Villa Melzi. I will be more than happy to welcome you again at Lake Como in order you to fully enjoy our experiences.

Beautiful and fun your around the lake
This was a very fun experience! The boat tour was the perfect amount of time around the lake and our guide was very nice and showed us a lot of really cool things. The lunch wasn’t our favorite but still cool to experience and the villas were beautiful! Over all I highly recommend going!

Thank you so much for your kind review and for sharing your feedback!
We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the boat tour and had a great time with our guide discovering the beauty of Lake Como. We truly appreciate your honest note about the lunch experience — it's thanks to comments like yours that we’re able to improve.
Starting from the 2025 season, we’ve selected a new lakefront restaurant for our tours — a true hidden gem, romantic and beautifully tucked away, with tables right on the water and a stunning lake view. The atmosphere is enchanting, and the menu features gourmet dishes, with a special focus on freshwater fish and refined local cuisine. We’re confident this will elevate the experience even more!
Thank you again for recommending the tour — we hope to welcome you back in the future to try the updated version!
Warm regards, Elena
