Raymond our boat guide was great during our 4 hours. We enjoyed about 3 hours on the lake and an hour stop for lunch. Great day.
We had an excellent boat tour on Lake Como and would highly recommend it. The scenery was absolutely spectacular, but what made the experience especially memorable was our guide, Simone. He was warm, fun, knowledgeable, and engaging, sharing fascinating details about the beautiful villas, charming towns, and history of the lake. The tour was well paced, relaxing, and gave us plenty of opportunities to take photos, enjoy lunch at a fantastic restaurant, briefly visit Varenna, and simply enjoy the incredible views. It felt personal rather than rushed, and our guide made sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. A truly special way to experience Lake Como. Don’t miss this tour if you want to see the lake from its most beautiful perspective.
Perfect arrangements and weather accommodations in direct communications . Boat is excellent and as pictured. Nice stories for a few locations on the lake. Convenient pick up from Lenno.
It was a great overview of Lake Como! Rai did a great job as captain explaining the area showing us the beautiful villas! Highly recommend!
Andrea was an excellent captain. We did a 2hr sunset cruise. He took us past some beautiful villas and the waterfall. He provided us with water and a bottle of prosecco and was a pleasure to talk to and was very knowledgeable about the area. I would definitely recommend this company for a fun and safe boat day.
Our tour guide Andrea was excellent. He took the time to explain the area. He asked us if we had special interests we would like to see. Gave us personal information and offered us local suggestions for the area. Very enjoyable experience
Our host was lovely. The tour was fantastic and we got to experience much of the beauty of the lake, with some great knowledge shared to us by the host at our stops. He also helped to take photos of me and my wife
Wonderful experience would not recommend any other boat rental service if wanting the best lake como boat tour! Exceptional!
We were in Como for our Son’s wedding at one of the villas. We booked the tour in advance to ensure the timing fit with our schedule. Our guide, Simone, was on time, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the area. We were extremely pleased and impressed by this experience. Highly recommended everyone to choose this company and ask for Simone to be their guide.
We had a wonderful boat ride on Lake Como with our delightful guide Simone, who is very knowledgeable and has shown us the best sights. Thank you for a great afternoon!
Be aware this is not a 4 hour trip. It is barely 3. Driver was 30 minutes late and had “another booking” after us so we were completely rushed the entire time. Not a relaxing day on the water as we had hoped. This is an expensive excursion so all we wanted was the time we paid for and be able to relax and enjoy the day. Driver did not give us even make up for the time he was late in picking us up. Very disappointed and had hoped this would have been one of the highlights on our vacation and it turned out to be the worst excursion we took the entire month we were in Europe. Wouldn’t have even given it one star. Money wasted!
A fantastic day on Lake Como with our guide Andrea. He was so pleasant and knowledgeable! Great recommendations on what to do, and a wealth of knowledge about the villas on the lake, history, and current owners.
Booked boat last minute. Met Andre at Argegno. Met Andre with boat. Boat was open with covering, so can enjoy the breeze and avoid sun if desired. Andre pointed out highlights of the Lake and pleasant person. We would recommend.
It was really good, ray (hopefully right name) was really knowledgeable. Kids loved it and it was lot of fun
Ricardo was a great guide. Very knowledgeable about the points of interest. Very engaging. Born and raised on Lake Como so he has studied it a lot even though he is young. This was well worth the money to see other parts of this incredibly beautiful area. Boat was bart clean and well kept.
Very relaxing & informative. A great way to see the beautiful sites of lake como & spectacular villas! Our captain/guide Ricardo Ferrari was so knowledgeable and truly made our experience unforgettable!!! We will definitely request Ticardo when we return!
We had a wonderful experience with our guide, Simone. He was a wonderful guide. He took us, of course, to the beautiful areas, but also customized our boat ride to explore very fun areas for my family from ages 6 to 20. The boat was smooth, clean, and exactly what we were looking for. Whether you are a local or a tourist, I would highly recommend Simone and his company to assist you on a beautiful ride.
Andrea was an awesome captain with great knowledge of the lake. The boat was really nice and the 4-8pm time slot was perfect for the golden hour. They were fastidious in answering all questions you have about your upcoming reservation. Enjoyed our time with him.
We booked a private 4 hour Lake Como boat tour with 8 adults. It was a wonderful relaxing experience for all of us. We booked 3 months in advance and selected because it was just our group. This operator had open seating but could be enclosed in case of cooler weather. It was a beautiful day and we all were very comfortable. We ended up traveling from Bellagio at the last minute for an additional fee which was well worth it to avoid transportation time and costs to stated pickup location across the lake. The communication with the operating company with very responsive. This was a great excursion for our group of seasoned travelers. We were provided water and one bottle of Prosecco to share. You can bring your own items. The boat was very clean and our captain Ray was very safe and helped us in getting on and off in moving water and lots of boat traffic.
Had an incredible boat tour on the water with Davide as our tour guide! The boat was so lovely and comfortable. A must while visiting Lake Como!
Fabulous experience with Simon as our captain. Beautiful boat, great weather, and lots of interesting facts shared along the way as we toured Lake Como. Highly recommend!
The entire experience was amazing. We arranged a pickup in Bellagio where we were staying. Captain Andrea was great and tailored the itinerary for us, showing us several magnificent villas and waterfalls along the lake.
This is all about emotions — a boat, a lake, a captain, an Italian vibe. Once you experience it, you start to understand why you want to come back and go through it all again.
The boat in the picture is not the boat we had, it was better!! A refurbished mahogany wooded boat reminiscent of the 1940's but modern and better. Very comfortable (does have a retractable roof that closes if weather is not so great), captain was 1st rate and very knowledgeable about the lake homes (born and raised by the lake), prosecco upon arrival, nice calm one hour tour, weather was perfect. If your visiting lake como a trip around parts of the lake is mandatory in my opinion and you can't go wrong with these folks.
İt was perfect except rain:)) ………………………… …………………………………….. ………………………………………………….. ………………………………………………….
It was so relaxing amazing soundings.just perfect. Great company very organised . Fantastic boat and your guid
Andrea was very knowledgeable and personable and very adorable! He covered a lot of territory on our 3 hour tour. And the prosecco was great!!!
Captain Andrea did a great job sharing about the lake and the villas along the waterway. It was stunning. He also served us champagne and water. The weather was nice and the views were breathtaking. A truly wonderful experience.
Very comfortable and friendly experience! Andrea was very helpful and patient with us and time flew by!
We absolutely recommend this tour. We booked 3 hours but at the end of 2 hours our Captain asked if we would like to extend our trip another hour as we would have had to head back to our pick-up spot if not extended. We were having so much fun and it was such a beautiful day on the lake for mid-March so we extended our tour and were treated to another shore stop in a wonderful village we were able to sit in a beautiful spot, look at the lake and snowcapped mountain, and have a cocktail. Our captain was also able to take us back to our hotel rather than our pickup spot. I recommend having them pick you up and drop you off at your hotel as it was lower cost than taking a taxi. It was truly the best day of our trip.
Absolute must when visiting Lake Como. Eduardo was so much fun. Do not bother with the ferries if you want to see Lake Como in a relaxing boat ride this is the best. Thank you for making our trip for my family a memorable visit.
Our Lake Como boat tour with Eduardo was truly unforgettable! He was an amazing captain—knowledgeable, welcoming, and so passionate about sharing the beauty and history of the lake. The whole experience felt absolutely dreamy as we cruised past stunning villas and historic buildings. We loved it so much that we extended our trip by an extra hour, which gave us the chance to see even more of Como’s breathtaking views. This was without a doubt a highlight of our trip, highly recommended!
Eduardo was a great tour guide, and was very knowledgeable about the area. The tour of the lake itself was very well done, and we enjoyed some incredible views. Would highly recommend this experience for anyone traveling to Lake Como!
We picked B&S because they were highly rated and offered a 3-hour tour which sounded perfect for our family with teenagers. We booked directly through their website which was very easy to use. When there were thunderstorms in the area during our scheduled time, they very kindly worked with us to reschedule. Our guide, Simon, was very friendly and knowledgeable and he made the tour feel completely tailored to our family. The boat was clean and very comfortable and the canopy kept us cool in the July sun. We all agreed that this was our favorite part of our trip and we will be recommending them to our friends and family.
This was the perfect way to experience Lake Como. Eduardo was an excellent host and we couldn't be happier with the experience.
Fantastic hour on the lake seeing the beautiful villas. Simone was very informative and we all enjoyed the Prosecco! Highly recommend
Every detail was taken care of – the crew was professional and friendly, the boat was immaculate, and the scenery was breathtaking. A truly perfect experience!
I had such a wonderful time on this boat trip! The host was incredibly kind, welcoming, and made the whole experience feel special from start to finish. Everything was well organized, safe, and comfortable, but what stood out most was the genuine care and hospitality. He went out of his way to make sure everyone felt relaxed and enjoyed the journey. The views were stunning, but the kindness and atmosphere made it truly unforgettable. I can’t recommend this boat trip enough—absolutely a five-star experience!
We had a fantastic experience! The captain was not only kind and welcoming but also very knowledgeable, sharing lots of interesting insights about the sights around the lake. It made the trip both fun and informative. Highly recommended!
Booked the boat for 3 hours in lake como in August 2025. Amazing experience, lovely villages and scenery.. Thoroughly recommend!
Simone was awesome. Pick up and drop off was easy. We really enjoyed hearing about the lake communities from Simone and sharing a glass of prosecco on this beautiful lake. Highly recommend a private tour. It was one of our best experiences in Lake Como.
Excellent tour around Lake Como, really enjoyable, with our very friendly host (and captain). Our kids loved all the opportunities for swimming and sunbathing! Highly recommended!
This was an incredible experience. A dream come true! Eduardo took great care of us and the boat was very comfortable. Could not recommend this company and Eduardo enough!
Great experience! Perfect activity for anyone and you will not regret. Definitely add to your trip for an excursion.
What a great trip! Eduardo was the best captain and tour guide! 20/10 recommend. Would definitely go again next time we’re in Lake Como!
Excellent vibes. Showed us all the sites, had floaties for swimming. Fantastic service. Eduardo also had a great playlist.
It was our highlight of the trip. From the start a perfect experience: customer service before the boat ride was amazing, the boat trip itself was perfect. If you want to do a boat trip, def go with Edoardo! Highest recommendation possible
This is absolutely the BEST BOAT TOUR and EXPERIENCE our family has ever been on! Edoard is an Excellent Boat Captain and Host. He listened to our family‘a expectations and exceeded what we even imagined. If you are planning on a boat tour only use B&S Boat Services. And ask for Edoard. He accommodated our request to swim and my daughter’s request to jump from a bridge. He chose the perfect music for the boat ride. Our videos will be favorite family memories forever! Edoard gave excellent recommendations for nearby restaurants and we enjoyed the local favorite foods rather than the tourist fast food. If you are looking for a life changing experience taking in the beauty of Lake Como make sure you don’t miss this opportunity.
Our boat trip on Lake Como with Eduardo was pure magic! He’s such a friendly and easygoing captain, and the whole ride felt so smooth and relaxing. We cruised past the most beautiful villas right on the water, with the mountains in the background and little villages dotted along the shore. As the sun began to set, the lake turned golden and the views were straight out of a postcard. Honestly, it’s the best way to see the beauty of Como — a perfect mix of charm, history, and pure relaxation.
