Superb!

Franco was a fantastic tour tour guide. He is very experienced and knowledgable. Luca the driver also was a big part of the tour, took us to our journey safely. The cruise was exclusive for our group only. We were given enough time in every stop. Lake Como was breathtaking! ! ! This trip is all worth it and an experience me and my family will never forget.
Beautiful places but organization needs work

The views and spots we visited were amazing! The organization of the tour and timing was not great. We left 20 minutes past our time. I think the organizer should have written more detailed information in the booking beforehand (ex: arrive 15 minutes before 10 to avoid wasting time waiting). The tour itself was beautiful in the spots we visited but due to leaving late, we did not get as much free time ourselves.
Response from Host , Aug 2022
Dear customer, we are very sorry about this situation. For sure we will try our best to send clearer indications through our voucher about timings.
We are glad that overall you had a good experience while doing the actual tour.
Thank you for your feedback, it helps us to improve.

Lake Como is beautiful!

Well, first off the bus driver and the tour guide were late, about 10 mins. Which was fine, but everyone was at the bus stop 20-10 minutes before departure. They also said the day before please be on time, which is fine but respectfully they should do the same. Personally I got very car sick from the bus. I get car sick easily but next time i would either stay in Lake como or get a driver because the roads are very tight and fast. The tour was ok, not my favorite. It was hard to pay attention since the tour was in two languages. Which i didnt really know at first. It was more that you couldn't remember what the tour guide said since the info was being talked about in a different language right after. The boat ride was nice but I wish the opening was bigger. There were a lot of people in the back trying to get pictures and I felt bad being so close to the people sitting but everyone wanted pictures in the actual opening of the boat. Lake como itself was BEAUTIFUL! I would def recommend coming if you are short on time and need transportation to Lake como and the three towns.

Lake Como Belissimo!

It was hotter than Hades and the guide is not responsible for that. I would recommend a minimum age for participants. The bus and driver were very adequate. The guide did her best considering the blistering temperatures. Her history and restaurant recommendation were spot on. I would recommend this tour!
Great day tour

Great tour; Lake Como was beautiful. Very knowledgeable tour guide. Marked down to 4 stars only because headsets didn’t work consistently (so we missed a lot of what the guide was saying) and the AC on the bus broke on the ride back to Milan, which made the bus uncomfortably hot. Worthwhile overall.
Great day out

Wonderful day in on a beautiful lake

What a beautiful day trip! I highly recommend this tour to anyone and everyone.
The trip started with a bus ride to Lake Como where the tour guide started giving us interesting tid bits about the area, a small walking tour of the city of Como followed by some free time, a visit to the Villa Olmo waterfront, a beautiful ride along the Western coast of the lake (pro tip: sit on the right side of the bus for the better views), followed by a private boat ride on the lake where we were shown and told about a bunch of the beautiful villas there, the boat took us to the town of Bellagio, where we had free time to explore and have lunch. The boat then took us to the town of Varenna (my absolute favorite of the 3 towns) where we had free time.
The only thing I wish was different was having more time in Varenna, as the town itself is very pretty and there are a couple of really gorgeous gardens you can visit.

Not enjoyable. Too big a group in a hot bus. Skip Varenna!
Wilson3rd2000
, Jul 2022
This wasn’t a relaxing tour by any means. What a waste of the atmosphere. Too big a group to enjoy, too many demanding tourists (50 people). No way a guide could handle.
We were in a small space (in a bus and a boat) for hours, unfortunately, many people were hogging the views at the highlight of the trip. (Tip: sit on the right side, be nice and switch with others sometime, don’t hog the view).
The tour should also skip Varenna. It was a waste of our time (an hour of nothing new to add in an already long and hot 39 celsius day).
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Hello. We are sorry that you didn't enjoy the tour.
This is a very high season and this year more then ever. Lake Como is a top destination from Milan that's why so many people choose it for their tours. As you can see from most of the reviews, customers love this activities.
Maybe next time you should consider to look for a private excursion. Kinfd regards
Great Trip

Easiest way to see the lakes

I’m so glad I went on this tour - the logistics of visiting Como Bellagio and Varenna on my own without a car would’ve been too much hassle. The coach was comfy, there wasn’t too much walking around or rushing about - it was calm, chilled, and we cruised on a private boat which was really roomy and nice.
Friendly guide Donnatella, nice info, well organised! Would recommend!
Lovely day on Lake Como

Bus was clean and on time. Air conditioning great and plenty of room. The tour is wonderful. I’m glad I chose a tour of multiple places on the lake rather than just getting the train to Como. The towns further up have so much character and scenery stunning. I would have appreciated more information throughout our journey. I felt the information we received about the towns we visited was OK, not great, hence 4 stars and not 5.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above.
