Customer Reviews of Tours in Milan

The Duomo is beyond explanation; needs to be seen in person. Fast-tracking to the rooftop is the way to go. The architecture of the rooftop is breathtaking. Our guide (sorry, I don't remember her name) was very nice and so informative. However, when the group moved from place to place, it was sometimes difficult to see what direction she went (a lot of people) -- I would suggest the guides carry something bright and hold it up to help the group follow.

The guided tour was excellent and worth the money. Despite being a busy area of Milan we were able to find our meeting point quickly and easily, then the guide made sure the party was kept together throughout. The Duomo “Milan Cathedral and Terraces Guided Tour” is stunning, and having the expertise and knowledgeable guide made it even better. The walk across the Terraces is well worth it, the views across Milan out amazing and you can see the fine detail and effort made building the Duomo.

I'm glad I booked the Fast-Track Milan Cathedral and Terraces Guided Tour. Our meeting point was very easy to find, security check was smooth, and literally went inside with no waiting time. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and super sweet. At the end of the tour, we were left on our own to explore the rooftop and it was beautiful! On our way up there, we had access to the elevator and had a short climb. On our way back down, we took the stairs but it was not as bad as I thought.

What a wonderful experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke very clearly. She was easy to find she took her time and was funny too. Duomo was breath taking. The detail was stunning. We were overall very impressed! I only use for traveling and highly suggest you do the same.

Very nice and a lot of information given by the guide. We are glad we took it so we can understand all the different things that we were seen. Also going to the terrace was great to see the city from above as well as all the intricate construction and gargoyles that surround the building. With the guide we got a fast pass to the elevators to get to the top. Going down was fun but narrow passage. You could take elevator down but you had to wait in line. It is always easy to go down than up the stairs. It is worth the price plus you get a very nice explanation of the cathedral as well as the sculptures in the area. Saint Bartholomew sculpture is very impressive with details as well as the story given by the guide. We took pictures of everything as the cathedral is one of the biggest and it shows. Close to shopping, if you are into high end merchandise, and the food was exquisite no matter where you go

Excellent experience and must do in Milan. The history of Duomo and the way our guide explained was very interesting. Only thing is the meeting point location should change since it is now near the tickets booth. Infoarea is different and I thought I almost missed it though I came half an hour early.

The tour was good - not the best but not bad either. There were quite a few people and little ability to ask questions. Though the guide’s English was very good, I did have trouble understanding her meaning from time to time. The line to get the elevator to the roof was so long that we skipped going altogether.

This was an excellent tour for two of us ably led by Catio. We enjoyed learning so much about the history of the building and of course the religious aspects. The archaeological visit under the building presented a good appreciation of what had been before. We concluded the tour with a trip to the roof via escalator and some stairs. Wonderful!

The tour is amazing! The guide was very gentle and tried to keep the group together to explain everything. However, when she distanced herself from the last people, the sound was broken. The ticket also gives you a tour to 2 other attractions, but you have to keep the ticket to do it. Even though the original ticket was a QR Code in the app, the entrance to the tour is on paper (easy to lose it). They should consider to use the app, so this wouldn´t be a problem.

Giulia was a wonderful guide. She was detailed and thorough in all of her explanations and descriptions of the Duomo; Features, characteristics, and history of the Duomo! What a magnificent church! We are so happy we got a chance to see it with such a wonderful guide.

The tour was fabulous and our guide was terrific. The meeting point was not clear. We were early and walked around to several locations that we thought "might" be the location and we were not correct. no one answered the phone at the number we were provided. Luckily the tour provider called us 10 minutes after the scheduled tour time wondering where we were, so we did connect. the tour meets on the South side of the building toward the center and does not meet at the main entrance of the Duomo.

This was a great tour! The tour guide (I forgot her name, but she was so nice) was easy to find and I loved that we were able to beat the lines. I wish I remembered our guide's name because she was just full of knowledge about the most obscure things in the duomo - I loved it! We were able to go underground and obviously to the terraces. Fair warning, even though we take a lift to the terraces, it only takes you partly there. There are still some stairs, so be aware of that! Gorgeous views, knowledgable tour guide, and interesting facts. What more could you ask for!?

Sonia and Valentina were amazing tour guides, the best I've had from many tours. The driver Claudio was very capable. Tour is organised well, with ample time in Lugano and especially Bellaggio. Como cruise was also nice and informative. Boat is a bit crowded but thats expected. Overall highly recomended

The tour was very informative and we got to visit beautiful places! The time in each area was perfect for free time to explore on your own. The Lake Como boat tour was an added bonus too and even got to see where some famous people have lived! Would definitely recommend this tour for anyone. Easy location to meet the group and I was always kept informed throughout the journey of meeting times and whereabouts.

The day was lovely We particularly liked Lugano. Disappointed about the boat trip. I read, and was mentioned on the coach, that we would have famous houses pointed out, but the boat trip was a communal one with other travellers from Bellagio to Como, with no mention through our headsets.

The trip was marvellous, it was so well organized and according to what was mentioned in the tours details. Both guides Sonia and Valantina were excellent with their demonstrated explanation and hospitality, a very recommended tour with a lot of lovely landscapes.

This was a beautiful excursion and quite the value! Finding our guide at the meeting spot was simple as he was clearly identifiable. Simone was very pleasant, funny and informative! The bus driver was incredible as he navigated the treacherous twists and turns of the roads. The sites were stunning!!!! It was a great combination of bus touring, self touring, guided touring and boat touring. I highly recommend this excursion!!

it was a road trip mostly. we couldn't have enough time on the places we visited, just 40 mins to 1h30m so I can't say I had fun but the places we have been was very great. the history and culture the guide told us along the way was informative and fun. but I wish I had more time on the cities we have been

What a wonderful day trip! I highly recommend this trip. We were unable to stop in Lugano due to the city being closed for security reasons surrounding a conference that was being held regarding Ukraine recovery, but we received a partial refund. That just meant we had extra free time in both Como and Bellagio which were wondering. The boat tour portion was wonderful and relaxing with drinks on board for purchase. Fabrizzio was our guide and he was wonderful!

Value for money ,114 euro to go to 3 beautiful places , lake como at first with 2 free hours to explore then bellagio another 1 and a half hour free time and the highlight for me luggano only one hour free time but trust its enough to explore the city centre.Our Guide Jo was very helpful and waited for people that were a bit late.

Tour and tour guide were terrific. However, I paid for the tour twice by mistake. Once on Sept 22 USD 116.61 on Amex ending...5005 and on Sept 24 USD 112.31 on Master Charge ending....5650. Please credit payment to my Master Charge A/C for USD 123.31 and confirm. I brought the duplicate payment issue to the attention of the tour guide and she made a note that there was only one participant on the tour Sunday, Sept 25. Thank you. Francis Bruno

The trip was a once in a lifetime experience and worth every penny! Oleg was a very resourceful and knowledgeable tour guide who knew a lot of facts about each area we visited. The tour was very well organised and very on time at each location we went to. If any questions were asked they were always answered! Just make sure to arrive on time, if you are running late by 5mins or so when arriving then you may miss the tour!

Overall a great trip. Tour guide and bus driver were thoughtful and provided great insight to the destinations. Spent an hour in Lugano before proceeding to Lake Como. The boat ride at the end of the day was long and hot as there were limited outdoor seats, but that had nothing to do with the tour company. Easy to navigate meeting times and multiple boat transfers with the talented guide. Long day with a lot of walking but an incredible experience.

Good day out - Little over an hour from Milan stopped in Lugano Switzerland for about 90 mins then back to Italy Lake Come including ferry to Bellagio - Not Las Vegas!!- No shortage of bars and restaurants - Onwards by water to town of Como and back to Milan

This trip was fantastic. Our guide, an older Italian gentleman, whom I cannot remember his name now, with a dry sense of humor that I appreciated, did a great job switching between English and Spanish throughout the day. Our driver, Lucca, was also terrific and I applaud his skill in maneuvering on some of the windy, narrow roads. Each town was unique and enjoyable to walk around and explore. Have a cappuccino and pastry in Como, lunch in Bellagio, and cafe & gelato in Varenna. Grazie mille for the tours and wonderful memories!

Had the most amazing time. Sonya - our tour guide - was absolutely amazing (as well as Luca, our driver), she kept us laughing all day, and was so knowledgeable. A really organised trip, had short tours with the group but got a lot of free time which we loved. Kept the whole trip entertaining and interesting. Would highly recommend. Definitely worth the price rather than trying to navigate it all ourselves!

The trip was well organized and we saw a lot over the day (I doubt we would be able replicate this trip on own own). Everything was well organized andwe saw beutiful places. The only thing I would change is spending less time in Como and more time in Bellagio and Varenna (beautiful towns)

Absolutely fantastic. Worth every penny. Our tour guide Franco was very friendly and very knowledgeable. We also accidentally booked on the wrong day and asked to move to the correct day. The change was corrected without opposition but a €20 each penalty which we thought was fair. If you want to visit verenna, bellagio and como and see the sights along the lake then book this trip.

I really enjoyed this tour. The guide was friendly and knowledge and the coach was comfortable and clean although the WiFi wasn’t working that day. The only thing I would change is to have a bit more time in Varenna so it is not as rushed and get back to Milan at the 11 hour mark. I highly recommend the tour. The boat rides on Lake Como were my favorite part.

It was amazing experience .. the tour guide was very informative about each and single monumental records of Italy. The first stop was como village we spent around 75 minutes looking around the village then we went to villa Olmo we spent around 20 minutes in the park of the palace in front of the lake .. later we spent an hour in a private boat to go to Bellagio village, in bellagio we spent two amazing hours going around the village (shops, restaurant, church and the park) then we left in a public boat to Varrena we stayed for one hour .. the view was stunning and breathtaking.

It's hard to find a boat or ferry to move around Lake Como during winter. This day tour provides the private ferry service to cater to winter season. My guide, Franco, was good in explaining the various attractions. It was an enjoyable trip cover Como, Bellagio & Varenna from 8.45am to 6.15pm.

It's really worth the money! We never do guided tours since we prefer to have full control of our touristic schedules. That's why we wanted to plan this trip by our own, but decided to try the tour thanks to some reviews here. It was surprising to realize during the tour how difficult it could had been to recreate the same experience by our own. Specially because of the transportation logistics. The tour helps you seize the time way much better, since it's personalized and private. The only thing we didn't love was the time spent at Como. Even though we visited an important building, the free time there was basically worth it only if you wanted to do shopping. We would had deeply preferred to spend more time at Varenna, since we got there at lunch time and had to spent almost the entire free time at a restaurant. This was due to a logistic change: the tour was supposed to visit Como first, but in our experience we traveled in the opposite order, arriving Varenna first and Como last.

Getting to see the entire area, several villages and touring the lake via water taxi was fantastic. Lunch in Bellagio was really nice. Our guide was super knowledgeable and did a great job. My only issue was the lack of places to have a "bio break". LOL

Great experience, amazing day trip with a great tour guide. we could see the villa from House of Gucci from the boat cruise. The tour stopped at Verenna, Bellagio and Como. The coach was comfy, the cruise experience was great too. We also got the chance to eat local food which was truly amazing. 100% recommended!!

This is a perfect day trip. Straight to the point and deliver what we are here to experience: 3 unique small towns and a short sightseeing in boating trip. The weather was a bit gloomy and lots of rain, but otherwise it was short, sweet, and efficient. Our tour guide and driver were excellent. Small tips, don't forget to spare cash to tip the staffs (if you want). Digital tipping is not yet accepted.

The bus was very comfortable, and the drive was beautiful as well. I really liked Franco, our guide. He did a really good job of explaining everything in English and Spanish. Lake Como is a fantastic place, even in the winter(which is when I went), so must be best in the summer. Very picturesque. Food in Bellagio is excellent, albeit slightly expensive compared to what you get in Milan City. The trip was worth it, covering multiple locations.

We are happy with this day trip because it includes a cool boat ride, fantastic scenic train, pick up and drop in a bus, travel all day in a comfortable bus. One can easily spend full day in this trip and it's worth the price too. The guide also was very pleasant and happily showed us around.

The weather forecast was rain and we could have been warned to bring raincoats or water repellent shoes. Most of us had clothes and shoes that got wet. I managed to buy a small umbrella from a hawker, but still got wet as it was windy. I was looking forward to a hot drink but cafe was closed. You can imagine reaching very cold St Moritz with damp trousers and wet shoes. We could have been warned on email before the trip to be prepared in case of rain as it was a long walk from the bus to the boat. Tourist guide did not manage our expectations. Also the tourist guide’s English was incomprehensible and vocabulary limited. She would say something in English and switch immediately to Spanish where she was more comfortable in. You could tell she was struggling. Not enough knowledge so we missed out a lot of important facts and info. The radio to listen to her was not working.

It was a very smooth and seamless tour! The travel via bus was very safe and comfortable. The Lake como boat ride was very beautiful. The St.Moritz and Bernina Express was stunning! I am so happy and thankful that i took this tour :) The tour guide was very accommodating and looked after us very well too. It was really a very good and safe trip for a solo traveller like me. Very safe!

A very well organised trip. There's a lot of sitting involved (coach, boat, train) but you get beautiful and scenic views as promised. St Moritz was a bit of a disappointment, would rather explore Como area for a bit longer but understand it would have been difficult to manage timewise. All in all, worth both your time and price - would definitely do it again.

it was an amazing tour I really enjoyed it and I think that this is the best thing to do in a whole day. It was very interesting and very beautiful I saw a lot of amazing views we changed three modes of transport But at the same time we were never tired. It was an exciting journey

Great experience. Few tips. -Opt for the left hand side of the boat out the back for best views and photo opportunities. -on the red train, you can see if the carriages behind have less passengers-again easier to take pictures etc. Great tour, no up selling etc

Excellent day trip. We didn’t sit in the official Bernina Express panoramic train, as advertised. We rode in the regular passenger train, but in a way, this turned out to be better because we were able to pull down the windows and get a real view, smell the air, and take incredible photos without the glare - something we wouldn’t have been able to do on the panoramic train. The views were spectacular and our guide was excellent - incredibly knowledgeable and humorous. The bus driver was also very skillful and cautious as he drove us down a precarious and very narrow winding road down the mountain from St. Moritz. Bring a light jacket and light sweater, as it gets chilly up in the mountains. Highly recommend!

What an experience! This trip is our something special to remember from our visit to N. Italy! The lake cruise was so beautiful, the trip from Como to St. Moritz by bus was so thrilling, the St. Moritz views are breathtaking, and of course the Bernina train experience just WOW. 100% recommended. Special thanks to Giada, our guide, who is such a sweet person, for giving us every little detail to make this experience even more unique! And hats off to Santo, our driver, who made 6+ hours on the bus feel like nothing.

Amazing experience, I would highly recommend it to anyone planning on going. We were told the bus would collect us from the given location at 7:15 and we were told to get there at 7:00 The bus came about 5 min late which made my family doubt the company being legit. Once we got on the bus we were greeted by our tour guide sara who was very welcoming. She helped us with multiple things throughout the journey. It was around 13 hours long and we enjoyed every moment of it. The views of the alps were simply stunning, lake como also stunned us all. The food was amazing in St moritz And the chocolates were to die for. The tour guide had provided us with all the information regarding the food at the stops. Honestly sara was the best tour guide we could’ve asked for. Overall it was a 5 star experience

The overall package was a good experience. Make sure to pack a snack if you aren't able to get breakfast before leaving; there is several hours before you stop for a meal break. A lot of time on the bus but the train ride back from St Moritz is beautiful.

Excellent. Even though it was raining in Como the view was spectacular. Driving through the Morjola pass was extremely scary but one of the most beautiful and scenic experience. The stop in St Moritz was a good break. I had one of the most delicious tasting hot chocolate ever and I regret not buying two of the pastries. The Bernina Express train through the Swiss Alps was everything and thanks to Andre who provided the background and history throughout the entire trip. Highly recommended.

Overall we really enjoyed this tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot. The boat ride on Lake Como was great; fun to see all the houses and learn about the lake. St. Moritz was cool, the only downside is we were there around 1pm and most of the shops were closed for their lunch time break. The train ride was cool, it’s not the official train but you can open the windows so you can take better pictures. The tour guide highlighted any significant thing we went past. Would recommend this tour if your want to see some sights outside of Milan.

Overall it was a relaxing experience and another way to explore the district.

Really lovely journey on the canal. The staff were polite and helpful. The boat was immaculate. Gorgeous day.

Very informative audio guide, relaxing cruise on the canal, lovely shops and buildings to see and lots of shopping.

A beautiful golden hour and lovely cruise. Not crowded. Audio guide worked great

The boat trip was prefer from start to finish for a relaxing view of the canal. Not too crowded and the staff were friendly and lovely

Bit average as just went straight up canal & back the same way. Sat outside to get best view but no commentary could be heard

I thoroughly enjoyed the cruise and the time was perfect with the beautiful sunset to top it off,

bring Bluetooth headphone as the guide is shared via Qr code on your phone so no physical guide. no toilet on board. lovely route and interesting points to learn more about.

It was a great activity to visit Milano’s chanel. I really recommend it.

Very scenic little trip down the canals! You can get drinks onboard for good value and it’s a good amount of time for seeing Milan via the canals! Would do again!

Guide very interesting, lots of details. Due to the weather, we were not able to go to the Duomo platform and the tour ended 1/2 hour earlier than planned

Our tour guide, Marco, was very knowledgeable and informative. He was a great company, we enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about Milan’s history and neighborhoods. If you enjoy guided tours I would highly recommend this.

Massimo was an excellent guide. We were able to experience the history and beauty of Milan in a condensed and entertaining way. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Milano for a short trip. The guide has lots of great history and humor to share

Very reliable, competent and friendly guide. It was three very interesting hours in which some secrets about Milan were revealed to us. The time flew by. A must-do for those interested in history and culture. Highly recommended!

She was very knowledgeable and gave deep cultural references and historical tidbits making it a very interesting tour

A very pleasant visit to Milan, Valeria is a very cultured guide who helps you discover many little-known aspects of the city. I recommend ++

Nice guide (Laura) conveyed the history of the cathedral very well. The cathedral is definitely worth a visit.

Cathedral is a must for every Milan visitor. Incredible building. German speaking guide was great and had a lot of interesting things to tell. At the elevator to the roof we could go straight past the queue. I can only recommend it to everyone. Meeting place was not easy to find. Plan a little more time and read the meeting point carefully on the tickets.

We had a very friendly, good German-speaking tourist guide (studied historian), who was well versed in historical questions about Milan Cathedral. The subsequent visit to the cathedral terraces and the roof in the evening sun were the absolute highlight! Highly recommended!

Our tour guide Stephanie was at the meeting place 15 minutes before and was waiting for us. She was excellent - very knowledgeable! We had an incredible tour of the Duomo. Highly recommend this tour. We started by visiting the terrace at the top, then made our way to the inside and ended at the basement. No lineups.

Excellent guided tour of the cathedral, underground, exterior and terraces. Two pleasant and informative hours. The guide was very prepared, he talked to us with passion about the cathedral and Milan in general, providing us with directions for the evening.

The tour is definitely worth it. Punctual start, we didn't queue anywhere, top priority, the guide explained very well and in detail. Nice from start to finish !!! I advise!!

the trip met our expectations. The guide was perfectly prepared, a real enthusiast of what she does.

Very good in-depth guidance. Guide had a lot of background knowledge and perfect language skills.

Our experience has been that the best time for guided tours is early in the morning. At this time not so many visitors are out and about.

We were able to visit the Duomo accompanied by Lorella who turned out to be very professional and gave us a very complete visit in which she provided a lot of very valuable information. Thank you!

Simon was an outstanding tour guide, he is very knowledgeable about the Duomo’s history and pointed out the different views of the city from the rooftop. I would definitely use him again!

Our tour guide was the best, it felt like a VIP tour since we choose language Spanish and my partner and I were the only ones. Very normal pace and got to discover the beautiful views and history of Lake Como. Definitely recommend and will go again when we get the chance to visit.

An incredible experience and I feel like I saw so much of the Lake Como area! Both guides were super friendly and helpful! You get free time to walk around and take photos but also sit down and eat. The bus was clean and had ac! One of the best days ever for me! Would highly recommend this trip to everyone and want to go again!

Cool!!! It is a beautiful excursion! Everything has been very well organized, which has meant that the time has already been used very well. It has been perfect. And our guide, Angelo, has been magnificent: super attentive, with very good explanations and a great professional. The same the driver, Luciano. Great driver and great person!! a hug to both of you from Spain

We loved this tour. Its a great way to visit outside of milan for the day and it was gorgeous weather when we went. The tour guide (i didnt catch his name) was very nice, gave us recommendations on what to do, and was overall very organized. My favourite part was verenna, which was so beautiful and definitely a must on your trip to lake como. I wish we had more time to see bellagio but we had to get linch and we didnt have enough time to sight see, so if I could change anything I would make the time longer at both this destinations (but i realize the tour guides have lives outside of this so it was okay). Overall, worth it! :)

Very little time in bellagio considering that you have to eat The explanations of the guide during the two-hour cruise very concise with what ends up being a bit boring I suggest that being such short times for the visit in each place you should include the visit with a guide to really take advantage of the tour

This was an excellent trip! Como, Bellagio and Varenna are all so beautiful, they're well worth a visit for the stunning scenery. The tour was very well organised and the guides gave interesting information, as well as practical information on the best way to find toilets, when there would be chance to eat etc. There was 1-1.5 hours free time in each location, so enough to see the main views but not to explore each town fully. The boat ride from Como to Bellagio is 2 hours. The view is beautiful, I'd recommend standing at the back of the boat rather than sitting to make the most of the view (if you're OK with standing for that long!) Its a long day and quite tiring, and a whistle-stop tour of each town, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! I was glad I did this tour with Varenna included as well as its very pretty. Overall this is a great trip that really made my holiday, and well worth doing if you're in Milan!

This was a fantastic trip! The tour was done in Spanish, French and English but was managed well by the 2 guides. Brilliant facts throughout and you are able to visit some lovely places. My only recommendation would be to stay near the guide on the boat as the radio signal is broken if you’re too far away and you miss some information.

It was very well organized and convenient especially being with young children. We've seen a lot in a day. The boat trip was magnificent as we enjoyed views from the Lake Como, while we also visited Bellagio & Varenna. No wifi was on board the bus not as promoted. The english language was very poorly translated but the guide did her very best to try and explain. It was a great day.

Honestly this tour offers so much for this price! You get a walking tour of Como, 2 bus rides (going and coming back on a different route), 2 beautiful boat rides as well and guidance and explanations from the tour guides every step of the way. The guides were friendly and gave good explanations. I recommend this tour!

A well organised trip, from pick up to back to Milan. Thoroughly enjoyed the boat trip on Lake Como with the commentary, although at times could not hear the Rep. She would seek us out and explain the sights, so we didn't feel we missed out. Walking tour in Como was very useful for getting your bearings. Definitely would return to Como. Bellagio was beautiful, had a great meal here. A trip that i would recommend

Unfortunately, there was a strike and we couldn't make to Bellagio and Varenna, but the agency was super helpful and offered a trip to Lugano and a boat trip in the lake. That was great... Lugano is a beautiful medieval city full of nice medieval paved paths and small stores.

The tour which lasted for about 12 hours was well organized and had a lot of new areas in a comfortable bus. The tour advisors were very cooperative and utilized the time perfectly to let us enjoying all the time and cover a lot of amazing areas as the time was helping. The tour had covered different locations including lake como , belaguo and varena which was the best among all of them.

We really liked our bus driver Domenico and our guide was amazing! She provided lots of great details, and was engaging. The one improvement would be to lessen the time in Lugano to 1.5 hours and increase the time touring around Lake Como.

Our original trip to lugano and cuomo was cancelled, but was swapped out for a trip to lake como and bellagio. Our tour guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. Unfortunately our boat tour was cut short a bit due to some issues, but our bus was able to save the day! We lost time in bellagio due to it, and with the cancellation that’s why its a 4/5 for me. If not, it would be an easy 5 stars

The trip along Lake Como was spectacular, undoubtedly to be redone. Incredible landscapes and fantastic cities. Thanks to the guide Eddy I enjoyed the tour like I have never done. Congratulations to the Zani agency and see you soon.

We had Inna as our tour guide, she really took care of me yesterday. I was the only one who had disability and she made sure that I was safe and comfortable and able to catch up with the group. We had the Como and Lugano tour and they are both beautiful places, especially Como.

The guides were excellent and extremely helpful. We started on time and enjoyed the day.

The trip was amazing bus was very comfortable. It’s a must for all visitors. Our tour guide was excellent. Como lake it’s like a dream. And our second stop to Lugano was unique. Many Thanks

I cant thank enough Salvatore our tourist guide who made everything to make us happy during the trip

This day trip was beyond amazing. Our tour guide Guissepina was very patient, calm and knowledgeable. She really took care of us. We met at the meeting point at about 8.50 am and got handed our audio materials. At 9am we set off for Como on the very comfortable coach. We arrived Como after an hour and had a guided tour of the beautiful city. Then we were left to wander on our own for about 30 mins. We met up again and headed to the port to wait for our boat to take us across the lake. The views were amazing! Breathtaking! The cruise lasted an hour and we came back to land. We went straight to have lunch and rested for about half an hour. We met up again at about 2pm to join the coach taking us to Lugano. We got to Lugano after about 50 mins, our passports didn’t get checked at the border but I have heard it gets checked randomly. We had a guided tour of Lugano then left to wander on our own for about 1.5 hours. We met again at about 5.30pm to take the train back to Milan. Wonderful!!!

My friend and I had such a great time on this trip! Our guide Andrea was very knowledgeable and friendly and we had the perfect amount of time with him and then alone to explore. We learnt plenty about the history of the area without it being like a lecture and the boat ride was incredible, thank you!

We really enjoyed this tour but just know it's a long day. Our tour guide was fantastic and gave us lots of information about the area. She made sure we were lined up for the boat tour early enough to get seats. That's very important and try to get a seat by the railing for the best views. Como and Bellagio are worth the trip.

Great time with Simona! The trip was me, my mother in law, my 2 year old, and my 7 month old, along with a big double stroller. It was a long day for the girls, but it was well worth it! Tours aren’t my kind of traveling, but this was an excellent way to see a lot in a short amount of time, especially not knowing whether we will be back or not. Simona was super fun and very knowledgeable. She helped me with the girls with getting on and off the boat, which was lifesaving.

If you are trying to find the right company to go to the Como lake, dont search anymore - this is the best choice! The guide was very charizmatic, honest, interesting story teller. He's origin is from the Como region so who can tell the true and interesting stories better than he? The driver was super too. We loved this tour so much! Greetings from Lithuania! We hope to back some day...

This was one of my favorite excursions during our two weeks in Italy. Our guide, Andrea, was fabulous, telling us all types of stories during our bus ride from Milan to Como with a great sense of humor. During each stop of the day, he gave us a quick tour of the city, and then we had free time to explore and get coffee or lunch. And the grand finale was the boat ride on beautiful Lake Como. We highly recommend this tour!

A great day out from Milan to Lake Como and Bellagio. Our guide, Stefan was informative and fun and really engaged with the whole group. We had enough time to enjoy the day and the highlight was being able to have lunch in Bellagio enjoying the amazing views with time to explore the town after. Great value for the money. Highlight of a trip to Milan was this trip,

Beautiful location. The stop at Como was a bit too short and unfortunately we went on a day that happened to be a holiday so we weren’t able to visit the churches. The cruise was a bit too long and too focused on the lives of the rich and famous. But the scenery is stunning. Bellagio is a bit touristy with boats dropping people off every 30 minutes. Beautiful views of the lake and the mountains. Our tour guide was well organized but could have done a better job explaining things and providing more history.

The trip was excellent. Worth every penny. I realized once I got there that Lake Como is a large area and it would have taken a lot of time to explore myself. Probably multiple days. The beauty of joining a tour like this one is they take you to all the most important spots and explain to you the history of each spot. We got a lot of time to explore in como and Bellagio. Didn’t feel rushed at all. Our guide was excellent and kind. I highly recommend this tour.

A really well organised tour of lake como. The tour guide, stephano was friendly and helpful. It was a small group on the tour, and he interacted with everyone, making us all feel included. He gave us useful local information, showed us loads of fantastic sites and views, and historical facts from start to finish. A really great day, despite the constant rain.

Our travel guide Andreas was so knowledgeable about everywhere we were going and made sure to give us great recommendations for things like shopping, food, and sights to see. We learned a lot about the history of Como and Bellagio, and saw so many beautiful things! It was such a wonderful day and I would highly recommend Andreas as a travel guide! He was so personable and easy to get along with, we were all friends by the end of our tour!! Thanks so much for making our trip so memorable!!

I had the best tour guide Oleg! He was so knowledgeable and made the tour amazing. He pointed out some amazing food places and was truly a great guy. I needed help getting a train back from Milan and he sat and helped me pick the right train so I would make it on time! Overall an amazing experience! Highly recommend checking the weather to pack accordingly

The combination of small bus and 2-hour cruise on the lake and 2+ hours of free time in Bellagio made for a wonderful day. Our guide, Simona, was by far the best of any tour guide I have engaged in Europe. Her love of Italy, knowledge of history and passion for sharing with her customers was superior.

I enjoyed the canal boat ride. The food and drink was very nice and more than I expected.

it was a very nice experience. nice smooth boat ride with aperitif and snacks. slow moving boat to enjoy scenery and enjoy a nice drink.

The canal is beautiful. Lovely relaxing trip. it was very hot but there was shade on the boat.

Lovely calm cruise in the Nivigli area, long enough to relax with the drink and snacks offered onboard. It was on time, staff were pleasant and professional, no issues at all. We had the later cruise so missed the sunset but was still beautiful.

Fantastic to see the canal area by boat - a great place to spend a day/evening.

We had such a beautiful evening on this canal cruise — the atmosphere was romantic, and seeing the Navigli at sunset felt straight out of a movie.

Nice breeze as it was very hot. 2 drinks would of been better value.

The guide was very friendly and knowledgable about the most famous Villa’s by the lake. The improvement I would recommend is to stick to the time for the tour, it was 1 hour but actually lasted 50minutes.

Luca was excellent guide and 2 hours was perfect amount to tour the key highlights.

We loved our boat trip! Our host Luca was very friendly. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great for us, however they rearranged our trip for the next day which worked out better as it was a nicer day. We will definitely book again for our next trip to Como!

Excellent in every way! Jean Luke was awesome ans Beatrice was great in accomodating our family.

It was a perfect experience, the captain was very experienced and took care of our experience and helped us take pictures, my friend even got to drive the boat, it was so exciting! I love Komo! Love Italy! This will be my beautiful memory forever!

We got engaged on this boat! Beautiful boat ride, we are allowed to bring our own prosecco and snacks and were invited to play whatever music we wanted on the boats speakers. Our guide was so friendly and offered to take photos of us in front of various beautiful villas. He was very knowledgeable, giving us detailed descriptions of the buildings we stopped alongside and their histories, and was even able to answer lots of our questions! A must-do in Lake Como

Captain Josh was very kind, helpful & made sure our experience was tailored to our needs & wants. It was well worth the money paid to do a private charter around Lake Como.

It was great,the captain was very informative and didn’t over do it,gives you plenty of time to take photos and enjoy the scenery! Deffo book again

Overall, it was a very good experience and definitely one of the highlights of my holiday. I would recommend it, but there are a few things that could be improved. We weren’t offered the drinks mentioned in the description, and I expected a bit more information during the trip as our guide didn’t speak much. The pricing was also a little unclear — we paid 198 initially and were later asked to pay an additional 50, so I’m not entirely sure what the first payment covered. The boat also looked quite different in person compared to the photos online. Despite these points, I still enjoyed it and would recommend it, but I think the company could address these issues to make the experience even better. Thank you.

The Highlight of Our Trip! Our Lake Como boat tour with Josh was absolutely incredible, and we can’t thank him enough for making our first experience on the lake so special. From start to finish, he went above and beyond – he was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and truly made us feel welcome and relaxed. We had a special request to have his dog Tokyo join us on the boat, and we’re so glad Josh said yes. Tokyo was the highlight of the tour – such a lovely, calm, and extremely well-behaved dog. He added a heartwarming and unforgettable touch to our tour. Josh was simply being kind and accommodating, and it made the entire tour even more memorable. Thank you, Josh (and Tokyo!), for giving us a beautiful memory that we’ll never forget. We’ll be recommending you to everyone visiting Lake Como.

Such a beautiful boat ride experience. Our guide was so engaging, friendly and knowledgeable about the landmark. he showed us alot stories and beautiful villas around. Also, offered to take photos of us in front of various beautiful places. Definitely a must-do in Lake Como!

Lovely experience with an amazing host Josh explaining about the river and various history behind it - even took some pics for me thank you so much .

The tour was great and the captain was very gentleman🩷🩷🩷I recommend the wooden boat tour

Nice staff at ponton and in the boat Wonderful villas or Hotels Worth doing it So lucky to be alone in the wooden boat Highly recommended

The boat trip on Lake Como was a real highlight The elegant wooden boat gives the trip a special charm and feels like a little time travel. Gliding on the sparkling water of the lake while the sun makes the mountains and idyllic villages shine was just fantastic The vibe on board was chill and personal, and the team was super warm and attentive. You can tell right away that there's a real passion for the experience on the water here. A totally perfect excursion for anyone who wants to experience Lake Como at its best. Highly recommended

It was really great Just right time - more would have been too long in the heat Matteo our boat master and guide was friendly and informative And the trip was great value for money Thank you!

The tour is amazing, the guide takes it easy so we can enjoy the view, and explains the villages along the way. I highly recommend it!

It was a great experience for me and my boyfriend. The tour guide was friendly and told us a lot about the different buildings. The view was beautiful. I might not do it again for this price, but I would recommend it as a one-time experience.

Great boat tour on Lake Como! There were five of us in the end and there was enough space for everyone on board. The wooden boat is beautiful, and our skipper immediately created the right atmosphere: Italian music in the background, good vibes, and a relaxed trip. Everyone had the opportunity to take the helm themselves – a real highlight! A little tip: bring a bottle of champagne with you; there are plastic glasses on board, so you can enjoy the trip even more. A great atmosphere, fantastic views, and excellent photo opportunities are guaranteed here!

Great trip! There were just the three of us, and the skipper gave interesting commentary while showing us the villas. We saw a lot for just one hour. Highly recommend this company!

Excellent boat ride with beautiful views of surrounding landscape and beautiful villas. Very interesting and informative on the various villas. Prompt and well communicated service was vey much appreciated. A very enjoyable experience! One side-note, we just needed the music to be turned down a little to hear the information our guide was sharing.

The tour was great and the captain was very gentleman🩷🩷🩷I recommend the wooden boat tour

A very nice one-hour tour with stops at different villas, then a stop to feed the swans! We were lucky to be the only two on the boat! Professional team. I would definitely recommend it.

They were very professional, kind and fun! The skipper was very polite and gave us an unforgettable experience! I totally recommend!

Miguel was amazing! He truly saved the day when we had trouble finding a taxi late at night

Our driver captured our proposal with video, took us to a breathtaking background and setup two other opportunities for photo ops. This has been the height of our lives. Thank you for making it perfect!!!

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.

David was a great guide and boat driver. Enjoyed our experience from beginning to end.

A huge thank you for the wonderful tour of Lake Como! 🌊 It was incredibly beautiful and fascinating, with breathtaking views all around. Special thanks to our guide — such an engaging storyteller, it was a real pleasure to listen. Truly unforgettable experience! ✨

Provider met us before our allotted time to give us an update and was more than happy for us to wait for our photographer to arrive. He listened to what we wanted and made it happen. Perfect, thank you

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.

Gabrielle was amazing tour guide anyone would enjoy the beautiful day and lake but as a local his information about everything and knowledge growing up in the area made the tour special not just facts but real information!! Bellísimo thank you Gabrielle!

Our guide was amazing. Friendly and informative. He took us to some great spots and took us to a brilliant swimming spot. It was fun, relaxing and very romantic.

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.

Superb activity, a magnificent boat and a very friendly captain for a perfect tour

It was a very beautiful tour with Mr. David He tried his beat to give us a knowledgeable information and he always smiling and start to answer the questions. Thank you for this tour . All the best

Amazing! Great guide and information, right on time, delicious prosecco!

Fantastic experience from start to finish. The crew was friendly, the boat was clean, and the views were amazing. Highly recommend!

Excellent tour, gave us all the historical information about the buildings around Lake Como.

Loved the experience. The guide explained how to drive in a few mins and gave me loads of confidence even though I was a little anxious. Overall a delightful experience full with adrenaline rush when some waves hit the boat.

Very easy process, a quick demonstration from a member of their staff to show us how to drive the boat then off we went!

The guy who helped us was kind and thoughtful. To find to place was easy. It was a great experience. If you make your reservation online its cheapet and you dont have to wait a lot.

The guide is totally disorganized We were on time and didn't know who to look for. In the end, he was at the bar and didn't have any rental contracts... Basically, the activity itself was great, but the organization clearly needs a review. Not a word when we got off the boat... we were just there to pay!

We had so much fun. Really good communication from the provider. The boat was beautiful and all went really smoothly.

Boating on Lake Como is a must-do activity. But you need to rent it for 3 hours or more.

a great way to see the lake with your own privacy. friendly and helpful host. highly recommend

I really enjoyed the activity, the lake is awesome and the boat is too, loved the entire staff attention and experience itself, I will come back 100%. They explained very well the limits, rules, etc and how to guide the boat, very clearly, and in a direct meaning.

Amazing experience!! ✨ We booked one hour and we regretted not booking more. Instructions were provided easily and the staff was so friendly.

The guide was very helpful. It was totally worth the money the view was amazing the boat works great would definitely recommend.

Our wooden boat ride experience of Lake Como was wonderful. Our guide Thomas was friendly, informative and well versed. The setting is spectacular, and the small towns are charming.

Wonderful experience, kindly guide, full discription. Enjoy a lot! :) Want to take in summer again!!

Highly recommend, what the highlight of our trip to Lake Como. Very romantic too + extra brownie points with this missus fella's. Get on it!

Beautiful and luxurios boat, knowladgeable and frienfly captain, Very nice experience, highly.recommended.

Our guide was great. However our 60 min trip was cut short by 10 min because guide before late. It was annoying

We had such an incredible time! Our captain, Thomas was the best! We were stuck in Cernobbio and couldn't get a taxi to Como without being late for our departure time, and the company was quick to reply on WhatsApp and ultimately offered to have Thomas pick us up at the ferry dock in Cernobbio! It was so kind and made the whole experience so much more enjoyable! We felt like we were in a movie zipping around the lake, drinking prosecco and learning all about the villas and their histories. Would absolutely recommend this activity to friends and family when they are in Lake Como.

Beautiful views of the lake. The boat was very comfortable and guide knowledgeable. We enjoyed seeing the architecture around the lake

Thomas was the best! We loved the whole experience. Started cloudy but we took the top off once it cleared up. Just amazing!!!

It was a beautiful experience. The boat was on time, in perfect condition and our captain Andrea was excellent.

Andrei was amazing, he gave us a great tour. The boat was beautiful, prosecco was great, and the views out of this world. Thank you andreiiiii 🤭

Great boat for touring with comfort. Great sound system as well. The tour guide was very friendly. We all really enjoyed the lake como tour. Highly recommend.

This was both a relaxing and informative boat ride. Tomas knew the lake well, was safety conscious, and knew answers about questions we had concerning properties and access. I highly recommend this tour. We landed in Milan in the morning, arrived in Como by noon, took a short nap, then we’re on the water at 6pm, a great way to unwind on day one after a long travel.

What an amazing experience and our captain was so friendly and knowledgeable! It’s the best way to tour the lake for sure!

Lovely boat trip to see some of the sights of Lake Como. Given it is only an hour you don’t get very far up the lake but that is to be expected. Boat was beautiful, really lovely experience.

A wonderful and memorable experience for my wife and I. Ours was a very last minute (same day few hours notice) booking. Antonio was simply fantastic - a very lively person, kind and made sure we got the best out of our time. The boat too was fantastic. A very private and exclusive experience for us.. Many thanks to Antonio and team!!

Antonio was an amazing captain and tour guide. Helped with everything. He picked us up and dropped us off at a custom location and time, was knowledgeable and fun.

Absolutely brilliant. It’s the best way to see the lake and our guide (Antonio I believe) was wonderful. He answered all our questions and showed us some wonderful parts of the lake. The bottle of fizz was a nice touch too. Would definitely use them again

Great day with an experienced guide excellent commentary with details of both sides of the lake. Would recommend to anyone cheers.

Our guide was very accommodating and the views are spectacular! Unique experience to see sights from the boat. Many highlights and would like more history and facts about the lake. Please add more information to the tour!

Great afternoon tour of the lakeside villages of Como province. Antonio was a knowledgeable tour guide offering the history of the villages and excellent captain!!

Luca is a great guide, he is very knowledgeable, attentive, and fun. Definitely need to see the lake.

Terrific experience. The weather started off a bit iffy but cleared enough to thoroughly enjoy the experience. Our guide Antonio, was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of insight about the region - all with a great sense of humor.

Thank you so much for the best time on the boat. Luca made our day, everything is perfect. He told us many interesting facts about villas in como, put beautiful music on. We spent a lovely time

Stefano provided us with an amazing 1 hour experience. We should have absolutely booked a longer trip. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the lake and all of the beautiful buildings. I highly recommend him and his tour!

We completed a 2 hour tour with Alberto. He was amazing. Very informative and great way to see the lake and the villas. We would highly recommend. 2 hour tour was perfect

Captain Stefano was fantastic! Super friendly, knowledgeable, and shared great information the whole way. He made our Lake Como boat tour such a memorable experience — highly recommend!

Very well run and informative cruise on lake Como. Alberto was an excellent guide with great little bits of information about the towns villas and history of the lake. I would highly recommend it.

This was a highlight of the trip. We left out of lake como and returned to the same spot. Alberto was charming and very knowledgeable about the lake and its history and the people that lived there. So so beautiful and truly, if you can, ask for Alberto. Thank you for a great trip.

Alberto was a fantastic tour guide. We had so much fun learning about Lake Como and enjoying the beautiful scenery!

Alberto was fantastic! Friendly, knowledgeable & professional! Definitely recommend tge trip to anyone who wants to see the lake & hear about its amazing history 👌

This was such an amazing experience, my husband and I booked this for our honeymoon and it was just so great to get to know the lake this way! Our guide took us to a lot of beautiful spots and explained everything very well! He was very polite and nice and we just had a great time with him! It was breathtaking to look and explore Lake Como with a glass of prosecco! Book this asappp

Amazing!! we got very late there by deciding to drive there, and they accommodated it and they still gave us a full ride, so thank you so much for that! 💛💛💛 Totally worth every penny! Super friendly stuff! We had Alice and she was super nice and extremely friendly, definitely a huge highlight for our trip. Will book with her next time once we are back to Como. Also, she recommended us few local restaurant, we tried one, and it was really good! Thank you!

Great experience! Two hours was just perfect. Alberto or captain was outstanding. He grew up in the Lake Como area where his family still lives. Great local knowledge and cool stories. Highly recommend. Ask for Alberto if you can.

We opted for the 2 hour tour and really enjoyed it. Our captain/guide was super knowledgeable- a lifetime local. He was very accommodating and we would definitely hire them again.

Alberto was the perfect guide! He was delightful and we had a wonderful afternoon. Highly recommend!

Mario was wonderful and made the best of the experience despite it being cold! The tour was awesome overall & the Prosecco was great!

The views and boat were amazing, and Frederico was a such a fun captain. Definitely recommend! They even provided blankets since it was cold in February.

I had a great experience with the shalimar boat tour. Our instructor was Alessandro. He made jokes and made the tour very safe and fun. I will definitely recommend this to every friemd of mine. As a solo traveller its good to do this.

Captain Alessandro and team were Aces! From the woman that met us at the dock to the boat driver and Alessandro- we arrived a few days after mudslides and weather was iffy - when they saw a window of decent weather they contacted us and we had a delightful lake tour- we laughed sang and they played fun music - history shared along the way- thanks for giving a great experience even under the weather conditions

It was very easy to book, the pick up spot was very clear. The Captain Alessandro was very polite and welcoming. He had excellent knowledge of the Lake. He paused at certain points and discussed the history. The Prosecco topped off a wonderful experience! I would definitely recommend this experience. Thank you.

Fantastic little excursion and lovely way to explore the lake. Mario, our guide was very good! I would recommend

Travelling around Lake Como was an incredibly enriching, educational and fulfilling experience for a first time traveler at Como. Our driver (Alessandro) was full of great knowledge of the locations and added a touch of novelty and class to the occasion. It was absolutely freezing but my goodness, this took nothing away from the beauty of the occasion and location. Congratulations Alessandro, you are a fine product of grand quality!

Really enjoyed the boat trip. It was a great way to see Lake Como! Special mention to our skipper, Mario! He made it extra fun. Highly recommend! Easy to find meet-up point, made it convenient!

"Alessandro was the best captain and tour guide! We had a fun time checking out the famous houses and sites along the lake. He came prepared with slideshows showcasing the popular properties too! Mulled wine and prosecco were a great touch. 5 stars all around. We booked for late November so make sure you do a day time ride before the sun goes down if you do the off season because it can get a little chilly. There’s also a few restaurants right across from the dock to have lunch. It was a good little day trip to Como from Milan."

We had a wonderful experience on this boat cruise. Although it was chilly and a bit windy, we got to see some beautiful villas along the lake and enjoyed some Prosecco in front of the Versace villa. Great value for the money!

Mario was our captain and he was fantastic. We booked this tour last second and we were very lucky to do so. Mario was very informative and fun. We could not have had a better experience.

Great way to spend an hour on the lake learning about the amazing properties further up the lake. Como itself is quite ordinary compared to areas further up the lake. Slight language barrier with tour guide on the boat but overall worthwhile doing.
