Enjoyable tour - Great way to see Lake Como and get a quick foray into Switzerland. This tour does pack a lot in so its not super relaxed but if you want to see all these areas in one day then this will do it for you. They were also very accommodating and were able to store my luggage in the bus hold during the tour as I was staying in Lugano that night and I simply stayed in Lugano at the end of the trip. Other operators wouldn't do this for me.

A must do tour - One of the top Viator trips. Lugano, Bellagio, and Lake Como are a must just beautiful. Our tour guide. Alessio (Alex) was outstanding his knowledge of the places we visited, and the history and the beauty and the scenery that were explained to us was the best. His coordination of our group so helpful.

Fast walking co operative lady - Good trip ,well covered but weather was bad. Tour leader very active but quite fast walker due which old customers with arthritis have difficulty in keeping up. She should wait at turnings or intersections to get all togetther

Would not recommend this tour. - Tour guide very nice, but spent most conversation with Spanish speaking tourists. Spoke good English, but left out details given in Spanish & there was no info provided about Italy or Milan, the venues driven by in town nor on the way to Como. Initial boat trip was fine, but vessels were changed & a smaller boat was used on the return trip having customers squeeze together to fit everyone into the boat - not what we paid for. Trip to Lugano was a waste of time considering how long it took to get there & the 30 minutes given for free time along with the extended return trip to Milano.

Not the best way to see these beautiful towns - Beautiful places and you must visit but perhaps find another tour. We spent too much time in lines waiting for the ferry or our bus driver. 1.5 hours in Como and 2 hours in Bellagio, only to find that they gave us 20 minutes in Lugano which was absurd. We couldn’t do or see anything there. The driver drove very rashly through the narrow streets. He obviously knew the roads but it seemed dangerous as he got close to vehicles and was the only one honking his horn. The guide Patricia was a pleasant person but she could have provided more information as we passed towns during the boat ride and road trip. Also the driver would not let us eat anything on the bus. It’s never happened on any tour before. A Long day which could be planned much better.

It’s really and bus and boat tour! Like The Who said, “we won’t be fooled again! - Have you ever been told to meet somewhere so vague that it was like finding a needle in a haystack? We did ahead of this tour. Ask us to meet near the train station was as specific as it got. Luckily we found someone looking as well. It was a horrible way to start! Next, there we timing issues. Want to stop at this beautiful location? Sure, you have 20 minutes to be back at the meeting spot! Ok, how about it’s time to eat so we’ll get off the ferry but don’t mind that the restaurants are closed for the afternoon. Then, here we are at our last stop, enjoy 40 minutes. I get the scenery was a critical part of this tour but the reality this is 4 hours on a bus, 5 hours on a ferry , and next to no time to enjoy the towns, eat lunch, or take in the culture. On a positive note, our guide was very kind, apologetic, and knowledgeable but she was thrown to the wolves. Unless you want a boat and bus tour I’d suggest this: Take a 40 minute train ride from Milan to Como. Venture out and take in the sights and sounds. If you want to ferry from town to town do it on your own time and dime.

Very bad experience! This company should be absolutely avoided! - Very bad experience! Absolutely avoid. If I could I would have given 0 stars! We booked the excursion through our hotel in Milan. We were given a meeting place (Place République). We arrived 20 minutes before departure (instead of 15 minutes before, departure was scheduled for 8:30 a.m.), there was no bus. 2 more people arrived at 8:30. Our bus never arrived! Another bus from the same company explained to us that there had been an error and that our bus had left from another place. We were offered to do another excursion. We made a scene and left for the station to go to Lake Como. Our train is at 10:43 a.m. while we were at Place République at 8:10 a.m. The frigerio viaggi company is a big scam!!
