Just ok
For the price this experience was just ok. The wine bar was great, we loved the drinks in the afternoon, but the dinner was terrible. We could have done this experience ourselves for a lot cheaper.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your honest review, Ms. Amanda. We are glad that you liked the wine tasting and the aperitif. On the contrary, we are sorry that the dinner did not meet your expectations. It is actually our first time to recieve a negative review about them. We will contact our provider so such situation will not happen again.

Lovely day in Lake Como
Had a great time tasting the local products and visiting the city center. Nice views of the lake and mountains. The audio guide explained interesting facts and trivias about the place.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are glad that you enjoyed the experience. We hope to see you again in the future.

An exceptional experience and the tour guide was knowledgeable
The Lake Como tour was simply amazing and an exceptional experience. We arrived to see the villas in a well-maintained boat with an exceptional view that took our breath away. It was equally pleasant to be led by guide Pietro, who was not only extremely knowledgeable but also very kind.
Response from the operator: Grazie mille per la recensione positiva! Speriamo di rivedervi in futuro.

We loved Lecco
This city not too crowded compared to Como. We visited its historical square and tasted different delicacies. Our favorite was definitely the dinner in a brewery located near the lungolago.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We hope to see you again in the future.

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lake Como.
How much does Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $205 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lake Como usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lake Como is not rushed.
Is Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Lake Como, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lake Como can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lake Como and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bernina Red Train & Wine Tasting start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lake Como within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lake Como?
+
On Outty we rank every Lake Como experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Lake Como & Lugano: 2 Countries in 1 Day, Boat Cruise, Como, Bellagio & Varenna: Small Group from Milan with Boat Cruise, Small-Group Lake Como: Bellagio, Varenna, Hidden Gorge & Boat. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lake Como?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lake Como?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
