About this tour
Your own boat and captain for three hours on Lake Como. Navigate the alpine lake's shoreline at your pace, stopping to swim in clear water, explore waterfront villages, or simply drift past the grand villas that crown the hillsides. Your captain knows the lake's corners and stories—ask about the architecture, the families who built here, the local rhythms. Sip Prosecco as the mountains frame the water. Up to six people, entirely your call on where to go and how long to linger.

What to expect
You'll board a private boat with a captain who steers and talks. There's no fixed route—you decide whether to hug the shoreline spotting villas, cut across to a specific village, or find a quiet bay for swimming. Most people split their time between drifting and exploring. The captain brings context: which architect designed which façade, why certain villages grew here. You're not rushed. If you want twenty minutes in Bellagio's piazza and two hours floating, that works. Bring a swimsuit if water appeals. The boat has a toilet and shade. Weather permitting, you'll feel the breeze and hear the water.
Good to know
Infants sit on laps; young children can use prams before boarding. Not suitable for those with serious heart conditions. Bring sunscreen and a light jacket—Alpine winds cool fast. All fuel and water included. Public transport to the dock is nearby if you need it.
