Tremezzo
Tremezzina is located on the western banks of Lake Como, just opposite Bellagio, and is the result of a recent merger of the municipalities of Lenno, Mezzegra, Ossuccio and Tremezzo. Visiting Tremezzina means having the opportunity to enjoy a place rich in atmosphere, history, and attractions. For example… did you know that some scenes from Star Wars were filmed here? Among the main must-sees, in fact, Tremezzina is home to two of the most beautiful villas on Lake Como: Villa Balbianelllo, set for major international films and also weddings, and Villa Carlotta, a museum and botanical garden. But there are not only villas. Discover all the must-see places in the most beautiful hamlets of Tremezzo, Ossuccio and Lenno: there are beautiful beaches, historic churches and walks not to be missed.

Bellagio
Bellagio is a small jewel located on the promontory that separates the two southern branches of Lake Como, those culminating in the cities of Como and Lecco. It is one of the most glamorous and romantic destinations in Lombardy. In fact, the well-known “Pearl of Lake Como” is home to a colorful historic center, beautiful gardens (parks of Villa Serbelloni and Villa Melzi), charming neighborhoods (such as Pescallo or San Giovanni), and much more.

Varenna
a real gem arenna is a picturesque and traditional village, located on the eastern shore of Lake Como, Italy. An essential stop for anyone wishing to visit one of the most typical and peaceful towns of the lake. This small village, where you can still breathe in the traditions of yesteryear (above all, fishing), is home to elegant villas with botanical gardens (such as Villa Monastero and Villa Cipressi) and beautiful walks between history and nature (Castello di Vezio and Sentiero del Viandante).
Pass by without stopping
Borgo di Pescallo
Pescallo is a small quiet village on Lake Como and is located less than a mile from the larger resort town of Bellagio. Having read about this place as being a little fishing community away from the tourist area, I was interested to see it for myself. On my first visit to Lake Como and Bellagio in 2011, I started exploring and found that it was only a short walk to Pescallo. The walk to Pescallo may be short but it is not that simple. For anyone who has difficulty navigating steps or uneven walkways, this trek is definitely not for you. Although Bellagio is at the water’s edge, the town is built on a hill.

Villa Del Balbianello
We will see this beautiful villa by the water. Number of feature films have used the villa for location shooting, including A Month by the Lake (1995), His Demise starring Paul Zukowski (2016 disaster movie), Casino Royale (2006). The villa was also used for the lake retreat scenes in Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones (2002), with computer-generated imagery used in place of the building's true exterior.

The Best Way to See the Sights of Lake Como!!
What an awesome way to view the highlights of Lake Como! Our tour guide, Fabio, was excellent. He took us from our hotel dock to many of the great sights including Villa Balbianello, Lenno, Bellagio, and Varena. The tour was filled with a wealth of information and sights around the central lake area and I would highly recommend this tour.

Sparkling Lake Como Tour by Boat
Mateu did an excellent job of showing me the towns and villas, including waterfalls. He explained the histories and current uses of the estates and gardens. Boats2Go was kind enough to provide the non-alcoholic version of Sauvignon Blanc and water.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much! We’re glad you enjoyed your tour with Matto and appreciated his explanations. It’s also great to hear you enjoyed the drinks on board. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lake Como.
How much does Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit cost?
+
Prices start at $888 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 Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 20 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 Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit?
+
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 Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit?
+
Around 7 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Luxury Private Boat Tour on Lake Como – Villas & Bellagio Visit 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.
