Bellagio & Varenna, Lake Como, Private Tour

Georgio was great. He was funny and knowledgeable. He got us on the ferry easily and helped us find other things to see on our own.

Giorgio did a fantastic job!! So pleasant and knowledgeable but also a delightful sense of humor. He knew his history and shared it with us. A great tour!!

Giorgio is a wonderful tour guide! We enjoyed spending time with him. He is very knowledgeable and kind. Highly recommend d his tour!

Planned itinerary was fine but performance by the guide was lacking. Historical background provided on Bellagio and Varenna was sparse. Some commentary was not relevant.

Beautiful place and as always Giorgio delivered exceptional service! Would recommend this trip to anyone who hasn't been to this part of Italy!

The tour guide didn't speak good English. It was difficult to understand him. We were not happy and would like to be reimbursed.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and also had a wonderful personality. The day was very well planned and fun!

Georgia was wonderful, helpful and k formative. The only challenge was getting to and from Bellagio. We stayed in Comi and the ferry was not reservable online so we didn’t risk going to try to get the 9am ferry and took a taxi for 124 euros. We took the ferry back from Varenna in the end and it was a 3-hour ferry ride. We also had to spend a lot of time in lines for ferry tickets between Bellagio to Varenna and Varenna back to como so we had less time to actually enjoy the towns. But overall it was well worth the visit. The scenery is STUNNING! It may make sense to stay longer and split up the ferry days or drive directly from Milan to Bellagio.

Great introduction and orientation to the Bellagio / Verenna area! Learned the ferry system and process as well as other matters that would have taken us time and mistakes to figure out. Giorgio was completely flexible to accommodate our specific needs.

Not bad for a walking tour I recommend next time the meeting place should be Varenna and not Bellagio because it’s very difficult to get to.

We enjoyed the walk around Bellagio and the boat ride to Varenna. The museum and gardens there were beautiful. Our guide was very friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining. The would definitely recommend this private tour.

I would highly Georgio as a tour guide. He was extremely informative about Lake Como and Northern Italy. He was very knowledgeable about the local area and the ferry schedule. He was also considerate and advisable in making arrangements to meet in Bellagio and traveling to Milan.

Giorgio was a phenomenal tour guide. He showed us everything we wanted to see and did even extra when he didn’t even have too. He did not give us a hard time at all and was very accommodating. He had great recommendations for everything. I have used Viator before and Giorgio was the best tour guide and driver I ever had. He genuinely cared about us having a great time and did everything to make sure of it by making sure we saw everything wherever we went. Giorgio was funny, genuine, down to earth and gave us a lot of historical information about the places we visited. He was also very responsive with messages and made last minute changes with no issues. I definitely recommend any tour guides by Giorgio and give him 10/10 and five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was an excellent guided tour by Giorgio - he was extremely knowledgeable , very engaging and super flexible with the tour - we covered as much as 250 kms today starting with a pick up from my hotel at 9:30 am , going to Sormano to watch the Beautiful snowclad peaks to Bellagio and then a public ferry to varenna which to me was an absolutely incredible experience - the icing on the cake was a last minute decision of ours to go to Lugano - Giorgio was extremely patient throughout and was able to give a very clear and concise historical context to whatever we were viewing ! Thank you Giorgio for a truly incredible experience!

We had a great time with Giorgio! He was very informative and very funny! It was a fabulous day! I've said all I want to say....

Perfect way to start our Italy trip! Georgio made the day fun and educational. We never felt rushed and he was quite flexible.

Bellagio and Varenna are both beautiful and so different. Giorgio was our private guide and he perfectly planned the day for us. Ferry rides, gorgeous gardens, cute shops and lots of people watching. Perfect day. Thank you.

Excellent coverage of Bellagio, Verenna and 2 villas. Guide Gioegio was knowledgeable. Liked his humor and Italian history. Highly recommend the tour and the guide. 5 star for both.

George is a great guide. He was very accommodating when our ferry was canceled and we had to start an hour later than expected. He is knowledgeable, flexible and fun!

Giorgio was a great guide....very flexible which really worked for us, as I wanted to see a different villa. The tour was amazing and the sites were beautiful. It is definitely worth it going with a guide, rather than winging it on your own...you learn so much more details!

Our guide Giorgio was the best guide we ever had. He kept the whole family engaged during the tour with his witty comments and jokes. We had a blast of a time visiting Bellagio and Varenna. Thank you Giorgio!!!

Giorgio was very flexible with our schedule and catered the tour to the things we wanted to see. He was fun and engaging, and a great tour guide. We had a short stay in Lake Como and saw a lot more than we would have on our own.

We had a great day! Giorgio was an excellent tour guide and a wealth of information. I highly recommend!

A great day out with the family at Lake Como. Giorgio was an excellent tour guide with heaps of insights aswell as a few jokes.

We had a great time in Varenna and Bellagio - Giorgio was a great tour guide- very funny and flexible! He gave us a lot of interesting information about this area! Highly recommend it!

Private guide was fantastic. We loved Varenna. It was magical. The Melzi garden was also beautiful. Recommend this tour

I didn’t actually end up doing the tour because I booked it thinking it was a boat tour. Although I didn’t do the tour, I received a full refund for the confusion. I really appreciated this!

Giorgio, in the nicest way possible,is a psychopath, in the most hilarious nonstop way possible. My wife and I were not prepared for hurricane Gorgio, but he was great. He cam talk to you about literary ANYTHING related to the area; from Roan area all through present day. Bellagio, Varenna, anything else in Northern Italy, he was super detailed and crazy in depth. As a history nerd, I loved every minute of it. Casual peeps might not be into it

A great tour of Bellagio and Veranna. Tour guide was very chatty, confident and shared good historical detail. Be prepared for a good walk during the day as you cover a lot of ground in these two mid-lake townships which are both well worth a visit. A great day!! Duncan

The beauty of this place with the funny and interesting stories from the tour guide make this trip a must do!

Our tour guide was more very friendly, laidback and helped us enjoy the easy walking tour through Bellagio and Varenna. This is a must do tour if you’re in the Lake Como area!

Our guide and tour were fantastic - tailored to us and super accommodating. Good way to see what is needed efficiently. Five stars.

Giorgio was an absolutely excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable, professional and extremely helpful. We had an amazing day with lots of new information, history and exciting stories about local food, traditions and so on…

Such a wonderful experience. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgable and made this walking tour of Bellagio incredibly interesting. We very much enjoyed our day with our tour guide and learning about the history of Bellagio and Lake Como. Thank you!

Our guide was such a great sport. It rained all day we toured, the only day we had to go. Lake Como is so beautiful, even in the rain. Our guide gave us a great feel for the area. He was very knowledgeable but his accent was difficult to understand. Since our tour was a private one, we had a great time in different gardens in Bellagio and across the lake. Only wish we could have stayed longer.

We would like to thank Giorgio For a truly spectacular guided tour. You were a wealth of information and my husband and I very much enjoyed the day we had with you learning about the history of Bellagio, Varenna and Lake Come, and it’s Villas. We enjoyed our discussions on Italian History . You covered ever so much with us . We will be recommending you to our family and friends . Looking forward to our next trip In beautiful Italy.
