Incredible morning aboard a beautiful boat - We had an amazing morning with Giovanni onboard his Boston Whaler in Lake Como. The boat was immaculate, so comfortable for 6 Adults. We spent most of the time at the front of the boat moving to the back when we went for a swim where steps provided easy access into the water. We had a couple of requests on our trip which Giovanni was very happy to weave into our morning together. The stop for a swim was excellent and took place in a really safe and beautiful spot. Giovanni was so friendly and helpful, our pick up and drop off was at Menaggio and the communication was simple, frequent and straightforward. Celebratory fizz including a few snacks were also supplied - I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend both a trip on the lake and Giovanni - thank you our two boys never stopped smiling from the moment they boarded the boat to the moment they got off..

Couldn’t have asked for a better guide! - From the moment we stepped on board, Giovanni made us feel at home. His knowledge of Lake Como and its history was impressive, but it was his passion for the area that really stood out. Oh, and the prosecco? Perfect!

Excellent Skipper for a superb cruise - Giovanni is a great skipper. Discreet but gives you all the information you need. Effective, it alternates slow passages in front of villages and beautiful villas, throttle (2X250 HP) when necessary and stop for swimming when you want. The boat, a Boston Whaler lends itself effectively to this type of ride: rear seats, front beach and especially fast to give you a fairly wide panorama of Lake Como. Giovanni masters the tempo perfectly according to the chosen cruising time. It is also a good Trip Tip if you decide to eat at a restaurant. The price may seem excessive but it is a good investment if you want to keep a nice memory of Lake Como.

Wonderful boating experience on Como - Giovanni is a wonderful captain who provided our small group with a very special 4-hour tour of Lake Como. Not only did we get to see several areas around the lake, he pointed out key landmarks and homes of interest. We would recommend this trip to anyone who wishes to spend quality time on the lake.

Fantastic boat tour - This trip was amazing! Giovanni was an amazing host, telling us history of the different towns along the water. He also pointed out a lot of celebrity houses along the way. Prosecco and snacks were fantastic and music was played the whole time. Unforgettable experience and highly recommend to anyone wanting a more hands on and private tour of lake como.
