Great tour with an amazing guide! Well worth the money. - An unmissable tour of Western Lake Garda! Everyone at Garda Tours was friendly and helpful and our guide Franco was very knowledgeable and great fun. Even our two teenage children loved the speed boat and the prosecco and nibbles were a lovely bonus.

The best way to see Lake Garda - I was in Italy with my family for 10 days and we all said this cruise was one of the highlights. The tour guide was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The boat was comfortable, with shade and sun options, and they had water for us which was nice. The break to taste some wine in one of the little towns was a great little stop and Lake Garda itself is stunning. Highly recommend.

Amazing tour around the southern part of Lake Garda with a great captain. - This was the highlight of our Italy trip, especially for our 10 year old daughter. The captain let her "drive" the boat while he poured prosecco for the passengers. Swimming in the lake was perfect, and we also made friends with some of the other passengers. Perfect way to escape the daytime crowd in Sirmione.

Experience to do - Experience definitely to do. 4-hour trip between the green and blue of Garda Nature. Our captain Silvio was really nice and prepared, so much so that he made us avoid a storm with a skillful maneuver flanking the storm. Obviously do not underestimate the refreshments with Prosecco and excellent bakery products. To be redone.

Nice tour over the south of Lake Garda - Very nice tour, great bathing experience, 1h 15min time to stroll in Salo. Pizza snacks and prosecco more than sufficient.

More about a party than sight seeing cruise. - It was OK to be out on the lake for a few hours but basically we went to one port, left to wander around for an hour and came back, which you can do on the ferry for a few euros. Guide pointed out a couple of landmarks on the way (and in three languages) but didn't say a lot. Although it said guests got a flute of prosecco they were very generous with it, but it was very poor quality and I and a few others found it undrinkable. There was also beer and water provided. The weather wasn't too good and the guide worked really hard to make sure we all had a good time with music and singing and it became quite a party and not joining in was not an option. There was no safety briefing e.g. where the life jackets were located, emergency procedures etc. Many of the outside seats were unpadded and not comfortable. The fumes at the back were unpleasant. If you're looking for a fun few hours then this is the cruise for you but if it's a restful or informative afternoon on the lake, this is probably not for you.

Mostly for young people - Do not think the boat trip is worth its price. The shorter tour around the peninsula brings just as much. The trip consisted mainly of getting the guests drunk and getting them to sing with the hope of getting good tips

A bad experience - We went out for a 4 hour boat tour with bad weather predicted and saw nothing. We hit a very bad wind and rain storm. We were never told where the life jackets were and out boat was late coming back. This boat company should reimburse all people at least half of what we paid as it was very irresponsible of the boaters.
