“Very impressive tour on the beautiful lake - The boat ride was something that impressed us a lot. The lake is very beautiful with many histories, famous villas, and luxury lifestyles. Our boat was very clean, new, about 7 meters. We changed in a small cabin to take a swim. Our guide and skipper was a great person to be with. He was very educated, professional, friendly, and funny. Glass of prosecco was a good complement to complete this amazing tour.” - Reviewed on 2023-08-12
