This four-hour itinerary offers a deeper exploration of Lake Como, blending iconic villas, natural wonders, and some of the most exclusive retreats along its storied shores.
- Bellagio – Admire the graceful shoreline leading to the hamlet of Pescallo and enjoy unique views toward Villa Melzi, one of the lake’s most elegant botanical estates.
Western Shore – Glide past a succession of prestigious landmarks, including the world-renowned Villa Carlotta, the legendary Grand Hotel Tremezzo and Villa Sola Cabiati. Continue toward the village of Lenno and the cinematic Villa Balbianello followed by the secluded, prestigious Villa La Cassinella, hidden among lush gardens and Villa Balbiano. Cruise behind Comacina Island headed to the dramatic gorge of the Orrido di Nesso, where cascading waterfalls plunge into the lake, and admire the colorful cluster of lakefront homes in Nesso.
Varenna – Navigation backward on the opposite side of the lake, passing by the village of Lezzeno, the beautiful Villa Lucertola, Villa Orlando and Villa La Placida. Enjoy a gentle approach crossing the lake from Bellagio to Varenna where Villa Cipressi and Villa Monastero are beautifully set against the rocky promontory of this romantic village.
Please note that the itinerary is indicative and may vary depending on timing, lake conditions, and guest preferences. The proposed duration is based on departures from the villages of Onno or Vassena; however, it is also possible to request pick-ups from other locations such as Limonta, Mandello, Abbadia, Lierna, or Bellagio.
