A unique and unforgettable experience.

A unique experience with an exceptional guide. We traveled as a family with a two-and-a-half-year-old girl. Thanks to Katia for explaining really interesting things about the area during the trip that we probably would not have known without a guide. Also for being attentive to us since we were traveling with a small child (we were the only ones in the group), for recommending places in each of the towns where we stopped to optimize our visit time, including the possibility of eating at a restaurant in Bellagio. In short, a 10.

Make the private boat

Good experience good guide Katia. But disappointed with the cancellation of the private boat because it is very busy and with little time in Bellagio.

Excursion on Lake Como

A very beautiful and interesting experience. Lake Como is one of the most beautiful in the world. The guide Katia is exceptional in providing information, being approachable, and caring for her group. A 10 as a guide and a 10 as a person. I will recommend them.
