5.00I am writing this on behalf of my clients, M/M McCormick, had a wonderful trip. Everything could not have been better. Their guide, Andrea, explained everything and had a wondeful sense of humor. His English was very good. *****
Not Great

2.00This is an extremely long day - if you are unfortunate enough to end up with the reversed day where you start on the bus first to Lugano, there is a likely chance you end up in Bellagio at primetime. The ferries are not built to handle the capacity and it turns into madness. We stood in the hot sun with no protection for 45 mins waiting for a late overloaded ferry to get back to Como and it was somewhat miserable. The town was mobbed with people trying to leave. Not completely the tour’s fault but it seems the area needs to adjust the efficiency and process of the ferries or the tour needs to alter their offering to accommodate these glaring issues.

5.00Alice was a fantastic tour guide. I loved this trip as a solo traveller, it got me to places easily, I don't know if I would have managed half as well if I was doing it myself. Lugano was STUNNING.
