Lake Como is a beautiful sight. This gorgeous stretch of water is lined with wooded slopes, peppered with beautiful Italian Villas. The lake is long, around 50km, and is shaped like a ‘Y’, so there’s plenty of shoreline to explore and much to see and do during an Italian vacation here. Added to this, the weather is generally mild and it is known for its Mediterranean style climate. It is also very tranquil and is a welcome change from the hustle of the nearby cities. In short words, a private boat around Lake Como is a wonder that remains pleasantly carved in the heart!

You will meet your driver and English speaking guide in the lobby of your hotel in Milan. Your first brief stop, during our special Lake Como boat tour, will be in Como to board the public boat for your panoramic ride with your guide to Bellagio. Time permitting the guide will provide a short introduction to the city before boarding.

On this panoramic private boat tour on the Lake Como you will pass by some of the most beautiful villas of the Lake. Villa d'Este - a Renaissance patrician residence in Cernobbio, today it is a luxury 5-stars hotel. In 1948 it was the scene of the famous murder of silk manufacturer Carlo Sacchi. Villa Erba - a 19th century villa, today it is an international congress centre. Also, it served as a filming location for the movie Ocean's Twelve. George Clooney, who starred in the movie, has his own villa on the Lake - Villa Oleandra in Laglio. If you are lucky perhaps you will spot him! When passing near Moltrasio, one of the most fascinating places of the entire Lake Como boat tour, you will admire Villa Fontanelle acquired in the 70s by the famous Italian designer Gianni Versace, followed by other villas including villa Le Rose, villa Balbianello in Lenno and villa Carlotta in Tremezzo, just to name a few.

Upon your arrival in Bellagio you will have time to have your lunch (not included in the tour price) take a stroll and enjoy the panoramic views of the lake and of the distant mountain peaks in Switzerland. Naturally our guide will provide a detailed explanation on Bellagio's famous Villa Melzi known for its surrounding gardens.

After your visit in Bellagio you will meet our driver again and will return to Milan via a panoramic road between Bellagio and Lecco which will allow you to admire the other bank of Lake Como.
