What To Expect
Lake Garda
Climb aboard a medium-size boat and experience the beauty of Lake Garda from the most magical perspective thanks the expertise of our captain tour guide. Let's start from the Garda and Bardolino dock by boat! The seats on the boat are outdoors, and some indoors, but with the fins raised to allow the wind to blow through the hair on the hottest days. All seats are sheltered from the direct sun!
Sirmione
Stop after approximately 30 minutes to make some unforgettable photos in front of the "Fonte Boiola", a special source of sulphurous water that literally boils the lake!! Let's discover the beauties of the peninsula of Sirmione, considered as one of the most beautiful and characteristic of Lake Garda, a mandatory stop for those staying on Lake in holiday.

A fantastic tour.

5.00The meeting point was somewhat unclear, but the tour guide called me and clarified everything. Very good! The tour itself was pleasant, and the tour guide explained many interesting and historically significant places. The stay in Sirmione was adequate with two hours. Overall, I found the tour very beautiful, sufficiently long, and rich in experiences. Highly recommended, which is why it is quickly booked out. Thanks again.
Okay but too expensive

3.00A little too expensive for the experience, especially if you're sitting inside downstairs, where you can't see much from some seats.
Sirmione was beautiful but this trip was WILDLY OVERPRICED!!!

1.00Sirmione is really beautiful and well worth visiting but this trip was WILDLY OVERPRICED!!! It was nothing more than a ferry ride on a small uncomfortable boat wiyh a tour guide whose English was poor. I couldn't understand her and it wasn't helped by the poor sound quality... it was distorted. I've done boat trips all over the world... it's something I like to do on holiday. I've never been disappointed in a busy trip until this one. Really terrible!!!
Disappointing

3.00The weather wasn’t great and so probably didn’t enjoy it as much. Trip over took about an hour and all through I could not understand it hear the guide properly over the noise of the bust and waves, she was nice but unfortunately was not clear enough. Sirmione is lovely, cobbled streets, Bristol views even when it’s dull.,enough time to do your own thing but not as good as we were hoping for. Could have done it cheaper maybe in ferry as the guide never taught us anything.
A good trip

4.00Great tour just be wary if you sit near the open area because your won't hear a word. Plenty of space not overbooked and the stop over at the island was just enough time.
A good way to spend an afternoon

5.00Small boat cruise which was really nice, good host with lots of knowledge of all the sights along the way, Sirmione is truly lovely and the best gelato I’ve ever had. Would recommend this trip.
The 4 hour trip was okay.

3.00The explanation by the guide was quite good. She spoke English and German. Part of the trip was the visit to Sirmione, but you should note that the castle is government owned and is closed on Mondays.
Anytime again
