5.00The tour was perfect, comfortable, and covered a ton of ground. Was able to stop at villa del balbianello and enjoy iconic locations for pictures. Alex was great and couldn’t have gone better! Truly an incredible day we will never forget!

5.00Alex was amazing. I was a little nervous to book, but his reviews were great, so I booked the experience. I then reached out to Alex to see if it was possible to add time to have lunch on the water and see more of Lake Como. Not only did he say yes, he gave us a number of restaurants to consider and then offered to make the reservation for us. It gave me so much confidence going into the tour having a relationship with Alex. The weather showed rain the day of tour, so he asked to start a little later to avoid the rain, and it was the perfect call. We learned so much, saw the houses of the stars, learned the history of the area, and he dropped us off to walk around in a town for a bit. I can’t say enough about the overall experience. It is definitely a highlight for our family. Thank you, Alex.
Very nice experience

5.00My family of four (husband and I and 2 adult children) thoroughly enjoyed our time on the lake with Alex. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and went out of his way to cover all of the sights along the lake. We even stopped for a swim and to grab a quick bite in Varenna. The boat is very comfortable. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

5.00This is the best way to experience Lake Como. One on lake feels like a different world. Alex our captain was on time and extremely knowledgeable being a native of the lake.

5.00The tour was great, everything what we hoped for and more ! Alessandro was super nice with answers to every question we had plus his additional information about the villages and the life on the lake. He even gave us excellent tips for restaurants and other nice stops for our drive around the lake the day after. I can easily recommend Alessandro if you choose to go on a private boat trip. Thank you so much for your guidance and your pleasant company, Alessandro 🥂!

5.00Loved it. Alex was recommended to us locally. Absolute gentleman with immense knowledge of the lake and engaging throughout. We had to admire him swimming to rescue a boat who’s owner failed to moor correctly 😂

5.00Alex was an amazing skipper and a fantastic host. He was very friendly, considerate to our needs and informative, tailoring the trip to our expectations. He made our day very special, something truly memorable. If we return to Lake Como we would definitely want to book another trip and have no hesitation in wholeheartedly recommending him to anyone sensible enough to check reviews.
