Mobile ticket

Embark on a captivating journey around Lake Como, starting at the historic Piazza Cavour in Como. We travel by public fast ferry to Varenna, bypassing the hassle of long ticket lines. Explore the vibrant streets, historic churches, and picturesque waterfront of Varenna during an insightful walking tour.

Next, we take the ferry to Bellagio, the jewel of Lake Como, and wander through its enchanting streets. Discover hidden alleys and scenic spots while your guide shares rich historical and cultural insights. Enjoy a break in Bellagio for lunch at a local restaurant (cost not included).

Conclude your tour with a walking exploration of Bellagio, followed by a return ferry trip to Como, capturing breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding mountains.

Note: If the fast ferry is unavailable due to maintenance or cancellations, we will use the slower standard ferry.

This comprehensive tour promises unforgettable memories and stunning scenery for a small group of max. 14 participants.

Additional Info

Service animals allowed

Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap

Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries

Not recommended for pregnant travelers

Not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health

Travelers should have a high level of physical fitness

Comfortable walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing are recommended. 

Guests must arrange their own transportation to and from the meeting point at Como’s Piazza Cavour.

To ensure a smooth experience, we use the fast ferry between Como, Bellagio, and Varenna. If it’s unavailable, we’ll switch to the standard ferry, which may slightly extend travel time. In rare cases, we may use a luxury van to guarantee tour quality.

This tour is not suitable for guests staying in Bellagio or Varenna. Please consider other options that better match your location.

If you have trouble walking, do not book this FULL-DAY tour! Thank you.

Absolutely not suitable for anyone with knee or back issues. The villages around Lake Como are built on steep terrain with uneven, sloped streets—good physical condition is essential. Please do not book if you're not prepared for this.

  • A great way to see Lake...

    A great way to see Lake Como, Varenna and Bellagio. Ricardo was a truly exceptional guide, providing great information about both history and culture of this region. He was warm, and with a great sense of humour. We felt so lucky to spend the day learning from him and seeing this really special part of the world. There is no way we could have seen all we did without Ricardo. We have already recommended this tour to people we have met on our travels. We highly recommend this tour to anyone.

  • Worth it!

    A few steps and inclines that should be manageable for most. Riccardo, our tour guide, was lovely, local, and very knowledgeable. Our small group of four plus Riccardo was perfect and the fast boats and skip the lines so preferable to facing the long queues at the ferry terminals. All up, not cheap but worth every penny!

  • Memorable day on Lake Como!
