What to expect

If you're keen to truly grasp why Lake Como is globally revered, it's essential to experience it from the water. This exclusive boat tour whisks you across crystal clear waters and through charming villages, offering awe-inspiring views and memorable moments.

Your adventure commences in Colico, where a professional skipper awaits your arrival before you step aboard an elegant boat. From this point, you'll glide past some of the lake's hidden gems, including Dongo - a historic town famed for Mussolini's capture in April 1945 - as well as Gravedona, Domaso and Gera Lario.

The journey includes a pause in Piona, where you can appreciate the serene, crystal clear waters of its lake and take a refreshing dip. Following this, you'll disembark at the pier to continue on foot to visit the Abbey. Its Romanesque cloister, bell tower, and church are among the most impressive medieval landmarks on the lake.

Next, the tour proceeds to the Pian di Spagna Nature Reserve, a magnificent protected area renowned for its untouched waters and scenic shoreline. There, you have another opportunity to stop for a tranquil swim surrounded by nature. While on board, unwind with a generous aperitif featuring snacks, savoury nibbles, and beverages such as prosecco, Spritz, beer, and soft drinks. Your local skipper will regale you with tales, insights, and trivia about the lake, adding an extra layer of authenticity to your experience.
