How much is a private boat tour on Lake Como?
Our full-day Lake Como trip with a private luxury boat is about $4,017 for two people, or about $1,130 per person for the maximum of 4. The half-day welcome tour from Como is about $456 for two, or about $84 per person for a group of 12. Your villa concierge can also arrange shorter private boat rentals with a captain during your stay.
Can I hire a boat on Lake Como?
Yes. Boats with a captain can be hired for a few hours or a full day, and some places rent small boats you drive yourself. A captain is the relaxed option and knows where to stop for lunch.
What is the best month to visit Lake Como?
May, June and September are lovely, with warm weather and fewer crowds than July and August. Some ferries, gardens and restaurants run reduced hours from November to March.
What should we see on a Lake Como boat tour?
Bellagio, Varenna and Villa del Balbianello are the classic stops, along with the gardens of Villa Carlotta. Our full-day private boat trip includes time ashore.
Can we visit Lake Como from Milan?
Yes. Como is about an hour from Milan, and our Milan page offers both a half-day trip and a full-day VIP trip to Lake Como with a private luxury boat.
