Details

Explore Lake Como aboard your private wooden speedboat, guided by a friendly captain for a relaxed and memorable experience on one of Italy’s most famous lakes. This is a private tour for up to 7 guests, making it ideal for families or small groups.
Caden boats are classic wooden-hulled speedboats that became a symbol of the stylish jet-set era of the 1950s and 1960s.
Select the cruise length that suits your plans: 1 hour or 2 hours. On all options, you’ll cruise past the renowned Villa Balbianello, featured in James Bond films and Star Wars. The short tour also reaches Villa Cassinella before returning to the departure point.
On longer cruises, you’ll pass Comacina Island, with the chance to enjoy a refreshing swim in its clear waters. The tour continues to Bellagio, one of the lake’s most iconic spots, where you can stop again to relax and swim with friends or family.
You’ll then head toward Tremezzo, where your captain will point out the famous Villa Carlotta, a well-known landmark admired by travelers throughout the week.
The tour ends back at the original starting point, leaving you with a truly special Lake Como memory.

Perfect weather. Interesting tour, but it would have been nice to visit Bellagio. A cold drink or a small gift upon arrival or departure would have been nice for the price.

Everything was great and exactly as described ❤️ Our guide was super helpful, the wooden boat as beautiful as in the pictures and there was even free parking for the car available.

We really enjoyed the 2-hour boat tour. We probably should have done 3 or 4 hours. Because we wanted to see the bridge/waterfalls, we covered too much area and so David had to drive fast and we didn’t really get to talk to him. He was very nice and took us where we requested.
