What people are saying about Como

An excellently organised day trip to all the beautiful places mentioned in the description. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided very valuable insights about the places - and recommended some good spots too. In my experience this was the best day trip ever for our family :) Don’t think twice, ho ahead and book it - you’ll have a great time.

It was supposed to be beautiful in summer when the flowers are blooming. We had a rainy gloomy day a day before. On this day, the sky was blue, the vision was clear and the weather just perfect. The most important satisfactory experience, we had the area all to ourselves! No tourism crush, no lines, and no waiting time.

The tour was complete and enjoyable. The Guide was very aware of everyone and reported everything. As it is a very pretty town that is worth visiting, I suppose that the lake would be much more beautiful to visit in spring, with sun and light. We went in December and it was worth the trip.

Truly a unique experience. The host was great, and creating pasta and having a wonderful meal in her home was an unforgettable experience.

Excellent organized day activity. It worths to follow it, rather to do a solo one.
