Very nice combo city & lake - I did a very nice tour with Stefano who is passionate about history and shared a lot of interesting facts with us. We were in a small group, learned a lot about Como and then could go on the boat tour without queuing which was a big advantage. Communication was easy and he shared a lot of tips of things to do and places to go for food, drinks and ice cream.

Small Group, no touristy places, ample free time, not rushed itinerary, great food suggestions, awesome TourGuide - The tour with Stefano was really informative and entertaining. We were a small group and visited beautiful places in Como, and we also went to Torno, a cute little place that wasn't so touristy. We arrived there on a small ship and had a little free time there. Stefano provided us with plenty of cool food spots, which we tried out straight away after the tour. We recommend the tour to anyone who wants to get a good overview of Como and also wants to see a small, authentic (non-touristy) village on Lake Como. We enjoyed it a lot. 🤌🏻🤩 Michelle&Marco

Fantastic - Fantastic tour guide! So informative and showed us some of his favorite local spots in Como. It was a small group tour (9 people) much better than the bigger tours we saw with 30+ people. Also provided a list of must see sites around como and Milan via WhatsApp which is great to use to explore on your own after the tour.

VIP tour treatment! - Oleg was a fantastic guide and showed us all the important highlights of Como and the southern part of the lake. We loved the combination of walk and ferry boat ride. He kept the tour at our pace and offered local tips for shopping as well as for a lovely restaurant on Torno where we had lunch when the tour was complete.

Como: Walking Tour and Boat Cruise - Booked just the day before the trip, we were met promptly by Oleg to start our 1 hour walking tour of Como. A lovely small group tour, us (4) and another family of 3. Oleg was friendly, knowledgeable and very entertaining as we made our way through the bustling streets of Como. It was great to avoid the queues when getting on the boat and to have Oleg pointing out and commenting on the amazing sights along the way. We got off at Torno and after a short walk around, we took Oleg's advice and stayed for lunch at Albergo Ristorante Vapore which, despite its film set location on the banks of the lake, was very reasonably priced and the food, especially the risotto with perch, was quite possibly the best meal of our holiday. After lunch, we had our return boat tickets, so just got the next boat back to Lake Como. The trip gave us a great taste of Lake Como - and given the very hot temperatures - it was the perfect length with an equally perfect amount of walking and talking, before you got to sit down on the boat and take in the breathtaking views of Lake Como. Oleg pitched his commentary just right for his audience and we had a thoroughly enjoyable trip. Once back at Como - we enjoyed an ice cream at Gelab Gelataria. Delicious!

Best Tour of Como - Wow! Where do I begin about this amazing company and tour? Well, I sent a message to the company via Instagram and WhatsApp, and I received prompt responses on both platforms. The company co-founder, Stefano, led our tour and was very knowledgeable. He took us to several hidden gems in Como and Torno. We also had VIP access on the boat tour. Please do not hesitate to book this tour, and the best part about this tour is that it's small!!! There were only 5 people on our tour!!! Amazing!! Keep up the great work. Much love from Rene in Houston, TX!!

A perfect tour for a small group - We had a fantastic tour around Como and the lake with family and friends today. Stefano was very friendly, funny and full of local knowledge. He shared with many tips for what to do and eat not only in Como but also around. The group was small which made it easy for everyone to follow without wasting much time. I highly recommend it and will definitely look for other tours that his company has on offer!
