The experience

You'll board a private boat in Como city at your chosen departure time and spend an hour on the water. The captain navigates the lake's first stretch, pointing out the villas and landmarks that line the shore: Villa d'Este, Villa Fontanelle, Villa Erba (a filming location for major productions), and the homes of notable residents including George Clooney. The guide shares stories and details about each location as you pass, and the boat moves at a pace that lets you take in the views without rushing.

A bottle of prosecco arrives once you're underway, along with bottled water and soda, so you can settle in and watch the landscape unfold. The tour ends as you return to Como, retracing the lake's long shoreline. The whole experience fits into a single hour, making it work for an afternoon free from other plans or a break between other activities in the region.
