Absolutely amazing! So... - Absolutely amazing! So fun to have free rein on the lake. A word of caution, if you are staying anywhere besides Como center or close to Como, (we stayed in Bellagio) it can be difficult getting to and from the pickup spot. Otherwise, 10/10 experience!

Do this one!! - this is an absolute must do. My wife and I came here for a honeymoon and couldn’t decide which provider to use for this, and this was so easy and fun. We had an absolute blast. The boat is super easy to drive and the workers are super nice. Just do it. It’s so fun.

A brilliant experience - We did a 3 hour boat hire from Como and it was the highlight of the trip. So much fun and would highly recommend to everyone going to Como. Ilgar was very friendly and gave us a great little lesson before we were let loose. Would 100% do this again!

Incredible morning on Lake Como - Fabulous service from start to finish. Had a slight delay to our start time but it was well communicated and we had our boat for the full 3 hours. Instructions were clear and we were given advice on how to best navigate the lake to visit the villas we wanted to see. 10/10

Hard to rate this one:... - Hard to rate this one: The negatives Our boat was 35 minutes late. Communication was not great. The positives: Our contact/boat trainer, Ilgard, was great. He was patient and informative and checked on us as we went along The boat was clean and well maintained The weather was good and then rain came but it added to the memory of the adventure

auto trip Toscany and Umbria - driving in Toscany and Umbria : To rent a car- look at auto Europe or any other large web-site, but ONLY rent directly from the car company that you like Directly. Best off to use Waze or Google, not car GPS. Road signs and rural roads are not well marked and always have a town name that you are driving towards. Italian drivers are much less aggressive than you have been told, unless you are driving in a big city

Worth the experience - The service was very good, but the day was windy and a very rough lake complicated the navigation and we had to interrupt the trip

Avoid! Horrible! - Booked a slot for 4PM. Company contacts me and says there’s no availability so we will have to push back until 530PM. 45 minutes before our new time; they cancel. Their boat broke down. The person from the company i was then in contact with was quite rude and laughed when I inquired how long a review would take. Steer clear from the unprofessional company! No clue when i will get a refund as they have zero answers. Their reasoning. “boats break down when you use them”
