What you can expect

  • Discover the eastern branch of Lake Como on our Venetian-style cruise tour.
    A direct tour departing from Malgrate, a charming town overlooking the lake, from where you can already enjoy the splendid panorama of the city of Lecco, with its tall bell tower standing proudly between the lake and the mountains.
    Take a seat on our taxiboat, relax, and prepare for an unforgettable experience on one of the most famous lakes in the world.
    The eastern branch offers breathtaking views thanks to the high mountains reflected in the crystal-clear waters of the lake. Monte San Martino, Monte Moregallo and La Grignetta will leave you in awe. You'll also see untouched nature, charming hamlets and private villas.
    After about an hour, you will reach the centre of the lake and its two pearls: Bellagio and Varenna with their villas, their Grand Hotels, and their lively historic old towns. Villa Serbelloni and Villa Monastero are just a few of the marvels you will see.
    After a few photos from the middle of the lake, you'll return to the departure pier.

    Please note! The one-hour tour does NOT reach Bellagio and Varenna, but goes as far as Mandello del Lario and returns. The 4-hour tour reaches the best of the central lake (with Grand Hotel Tremezzo, Villa Carlotta, Villa del Balbianello, Villa La Cassinella) and stops for an hour in Bellagio or Varenna for free time.
