Easy to find and friendly welcome followed by a brilliant tour. We were at 5pm, the last one of the day, so our driver/captain took us all the way round to the other side of the castle!

Brilliant! A quick but lovely ride out on a smaller boat (where you don’t need to rush to get a good seat). It was great to have a view of Sirmione from a different angle.

This was a fantastic little cruise that was both informative and fun. Guide was great and my family says it was a highlight of the vacation!

A nice boat ride, gets you a taste of the experience on a rather tighter budget. I recomend doing it maybe after 4 pm

Really fun ride around the lake. Very good thing to do before tasting Gelato in Sirmione.
