Pro's: Simona was an excellent guide - fun, informative and effecient. Antonio was a great driver. Skipping the queue was glorious and being allowed on the ferry first and being guided to the best seats was wonderful. Cons: Despite booking in advance and arriving early our names weren't on the list and we had a stressful 30 minutes of not knowing if we were on the tour. Even worse is that there was not enough sound receivers so I did not get one, my husbands was not charged or working so we missed all of the info given by Simona on the ferry trip and quite a hit on the walking trip if we weren't able to stand right next to her. VERY disappointing for us.
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.
One hour drive from Milan, you are already in a beautiful countryside!!!!! The bus was very comfortable, the guide and the driver were extremely welcoming and lovely. We really enjoyed our little trip. The little town Bellagio is so pretty, and also you get to see the breathtaking view of the mountains over the lake. Definitely worth the visit!
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!!
This was the best tour I have done in Italy, our guide, Stefano made the whole experience amazing. The places you visit are incredible, you have plenty of time at each stop, and Stefano have lots of interesting information during the tour sections. You also get free time if you want to get lunch, go shopping, go swimming etc. it's up to you which is perfect. Stefano also took us up to the mountains for an amazing view, it's worth it to go on this as you won't be able to get to those views if you visit Como independently by bus. Highly recommend.
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!
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.
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!
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.
This tour is absolutely worth it! Stefano was the best guide. He is so knowledgeable about the local history and can tell you everything you need to know to have an awesome experience and learn about the history of the area. We got to get onto the boat without a long wait in line. He knew the best restaurants and places to shop. He took us to the local places of interest. Also, he was really funny! Our bus driver was amazing and gave us each a bottle of water, which was needed on the hot day! 10/10 definitely worth it!
The tour began in Milan, and included a walking tour of Como and guided boat ride on Lake Como and a stop at beautiful Bellagio., with free time in Como and Bellagio. It was a great trip, lasted about 10 1/2 hours. Our native Guide Simona was excellent. The trip was worth the price
