Our private boat tour was fantastic! David was so knowledgeable about the lake and very personable- we learned so many stories and about the history of the area. He even dropped us off in Vienna for a bit to explore and finished our tour in another vacation so we could visit another villa. We highly recommend doing a private tour like this, it was one of the highlights of our trip!

Full description

Explore Lake Como on board your private wooden speed-boat. Meet your friendly captain and enjoy an amazing trip in the most fascinating part of the lake.

This is a private tour and the price includes the tour for 7 people maximum .

Caden are wooden-hulled speedboats that were to become the epitome of the jet-set era of the 1950s and 1960s.

Choose between a longer two- or one-hour cruise, or a speedy 30-minute one. On all cruises, marvel at the famous Villa Balbianello, where James Bond movies and Star Wars were featured. In the short tour, reach Villa Cassinella, as well, before heading back to your original launching point. On the longer tours, pass by Comacina Island and if you want you will enjoy a nice swim among its clean and pure waters.

You will then proceed to Bellagio, one of the most iconic place in Italy ! You will have another nice stop and swim here relaxing with your friends and family.

You will then proceed to Tremezzo and your captain will show you famous Villa Carlotta, which attracts thousands of travellers every week.

You will finally end your tour where it started and will leave with an unforgettable memory !
