Throughout the day, your professional guide shares stories and insider knowledge via whisper audio system, ensuring every guest hears clearly.

• This is a **guided tour**, not just a boat ride. During the ride from Como to Varenna, you will see the main highlights of the lake from the boat. After that, we visit the main attractions on the lake, walk through beautiful places, and experience the destinations properly. If you are looking for a tour where you simply sit on the boat the whole time, this is not the right tour for you. You should look for a different boat-only experience. Our tour is for guests who want to visit and discover Lake Como, not just pass by it.
• Please note: Due to the very high operational costs, a minimum number of 5 participants is required for the tour to operate. If the minimum is not reached, we will contact you the day before the tour, an alternative tour or date will be offered, or a full refund provided.
• Active boat tour — not suitable for anyone with mobility, balance, cardiovascular, or back issues.
