Wonderful day.
Wonderful experience. Sailing on a sailboat from the early 1900s is extraordinary. Tiziano and Roberta share their passion and love for sailing and Lake Como, which shines through in their every gesture, making you share in their love. The aperitif is a plus to better enjoy this day with the family. Thanks Tiziano. Thanks Roberta. We will certainly be ambassadors of your passion, we hope to be able to sail with you again.

Emotions on the water of Lake Como
Seeing the villages from the lake from a perfectly restored boat over a hundred years old was truly exciting and romantic. Our guide Roberta and captain Tiziano are very kind and competent. I highly recommend this experience.

Unforgettable experience
Tiziano and Roberta are Very Professional Charming Welcoming The captain explains everything to us, we can ask him lots of questions, so we can learn a lot of details about sailing that we didn't know... Roberta, very welcoming, takes our photos and then prepares the aperitif. The landscape is wonderful! Our eyes and hearts were full! Thank you very much for this unforgettable experience on the unmissable Lake Como, We will come back with our friends!

Warm feelings
Tiziano and Roberta are attentive and sensitive hosts. They also found the right proposal for us, who sail and know Lake Como but have never visited it by sailboat. It was a pleasant and exciting experience in every detail. A beautiful memory!

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lake Como.
How much does Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif cost?
+
Prices start at $885 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 Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif 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 Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lake Como, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif 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 Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif?
+
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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Guided Sailing Boat Tour on Lake Como with Aperitif 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.
