Spectacular scenery and informative! - Our tour guide, Monika, was informative, patient and humorous. The tour was always moving and no time was wasted. This tour was full, but perfect for seeing Lake Como and Switzerland (Lugano) in one day. We took our teenage sons and they were kept engaged the whole time. We experienced unprecedented significant delays due to a rail accident and Monika generously became the navigator/translator for hundreds of people. You would not want anyone else in this scenario.

Not Be Missed Tour - While trip via bus was fine going to Verona. What a beautiful town, had a great time seeing the coliseum and strolling around the river’s edge. The bustling shops were great fun and we tried the treat selections suggested by our tour guide. Overall my wife and I had a great time. Next we visited Lake Garda, and took a boat tour around the lake. What a blast and absolutely beautiful. Our tour operator really set me a great private boat ride for the group. The town of Lake Garda was awesome. All and all what a fantastic trip. I would also like to add that the whole tour was made better by our our great tour guide.

FunDay Great Guide! - This was a GREAT tour. Our tour guide, Patrizia was awesome. She was knowledgeable and provided extra information all day. She went above and beyond to connect with each member of the group and gave great advice for our stay in Milan. The Como boat ride was fun and refreshing. Lugana was fun and the chocolate was delicious. It was a long day but worth it. Everyone was tired by the time we got to Lugana so I would suggest less free time in Lugana and more free time in Como.

Great first day excursion - Great small group experience for us 12 participants. Como was a treat, and it’s tempting to think time in Lugano is too short, but it is enough time. Trains were clean and comfortable. Ricardo was friendly, experienced and helpful. Great excursion for our first day here with a good mix of activity and relaxation.

Best tour! - Loved that the group was small. Monica was a fantastic guide. She included a number of “fun facts” about the things we were seeing Because we were a small group the lake boat was able to get fairly close to the shore to really show the details of the structures I highly recommend this tour. Of the 7-8 tours we did on this vacation the Como tour was the best I will definitely look for more tours by Abroadstour again!

Recommend! - Our guide, Naji, was excellent. Knowledgeable, efficient, and super kind. Communication was good. Our group was small, which added to the enjoyment. Lake Como boat ride was the highlight, along with plenty of free time for lunch and exploring the town. Trip to Lugano was interesting. This is a long day! Minor complaint: Would have preferred specific communication about the extra 30 euros per person for the Switzerland leg or that it be added to initial trip cost. To summarize, recommend this day trip. Loved our expert guide.
