5.00My partner and I had the best time on the boat tour with Pier. He was so kind, friendly and easy to communicate with. He provided in-depth and interesting information about Lake Como (and of course some delicious Prosecco). Highly recommend this tour with Pier and his awesome small business :)
3-hours Private Tour

5.00Pierre picked us up at the designated spot in Bellagio at the designated time for a 3-hour private tour. I and 3 friends had the best time. Pierre was very knowledgeable of Lake Como being on the lake as a fifth generation resident. He showed us villas and other areas of interest and could answer all of our questions. I would highly recommend Ermes Tours.

5.00Piercarlo is by far the best private tour guide by boat, out of Bellagio. For a young guy, his history knowledge of the castles and Varenna, Termezzo, Lecca, Bellagio and more was so fun. 4 of us booked a two hour tour and it did not disappoint. Great job Pier! The boat was so clean! We HIGHLY recommend him!

Fabulous sunset Como cruise

5.00Our two-hour cruise at sunset was the highlight of our girls' weekend in Lake Como! Pier was a friendly and knowledgeable guide who shared fun facts about his family's ties to Como and his favorite places on the lake. Booking on the webiste and communications via email were easy and straightforward. He picked us up from the dock outside La Pergola a short walk from our hotel in Bellagio and made sure that we had a chance to swim in the calmest part of lake since the weather was beautiful. I did look at other boat tour options and I am so glad we booked with Pier - he was a fantastic guide for our group of four friends!
Look No Further! Best Boat Tour
