   AS 570 Open Deck Boat Rental in Menaggio

   This experience was incredible. The boat was perfect and well maintained. The staff (especially Jack) were incredible. They gave us thorough directions and lots of recommendations and sent us off. They were there to help us get back to the dock and get off with all of our stuff. We got to see so much in 3 hours and would do this again in a heartbeat. Thank you for a great day!!

   Lake Como Cruise on Luxury Runabout Yacht

   Our day with Alex was absolutely epic. First off, Alex has a romantic and very comfortable boat, which we loved every minute. He not only has an unbelievable understanding of the lake, but also knows all the best sights and is able to cater to every need along the journey. He’s extremely hospitable & detail oriented —but more importantly, he’s truly service-oriented. He brought us a bottle of Prosecco, provided towels, and treated us to a breakfast kick off stop at an incredible experience of meat and cheese in a charming lakeside town—right near George Clooney’s house! The shop was originally a famous butcher’s, now lovingly transformed by his children into a curated meat and cheese experience. It was the perfect way to start the day—authentic, flavorful, and unforgettable. He knew all the best places for our son to enjoy the water and gave us a full understanding of each town along the coastline. The cliff jumping and his seamless navigation—especially when it came to perfectly positioning the boat—made the experience with Alex feel absolutely magical. He knew which towns to pop into and which to avoid. We ended the day in beautiful Varenna, where we had an amazing pizza with a view to match. It was the perfect closing note to an already unforgettable day. From the moment we booked with Alex to the moment we finished our time together, his communication was excellent. His ability to customize the day made it truly outstanding. We highly recommend this true gentleman, who clearly wants only the best for his guests and whose love for Lake Como shines through in everything he does.

   Flyer 575 RIB Rental in Lecco, Italy

   We had a wonderful 2-hour boat ride with Alessio and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! There was a small misunderstanding at first—Alessio initially thought we had reserved a self-riding boat—but once he realized our actual booking, everything was quickly sorted out. From that point on, he was incredibly warm, friendly, and accommodating. He adjusted the ride to match our preferences, allowing us to fully enjoy the scenery and relax. His local insights and easygoing nature made the whole experience feel special and personal. A perfect way to spend time on the water—highly recommended!

   Comet 800 to Pianello del Lario - Sailing Cabin Cruiser (25 ft)

   Outstanding sail on Lake Como. The Comet is stable but responsive with an enormous Genoa that allowed us to tack efficiently all the way past Belaggio into the prevailing 8 knot “Breva” seeing both sides of the lake on each tack, then run downwind on the building afternoon breeze. Reeled the foresail in completely for the last hour. Saw much of the lake on one day. Below, head was clean and very functional, everything was tidy and organized. Communication with Alessio were excellent. He was standing on the dock when we arrived both by land and by sea.

   Four Winns H4 Sport-Limousine with Captain

   The best boat experience!! Our captain was timely and picked us up at our local dock in varenna which was so helpful! Highly recommend to start your trip to see all the lake has to offer. We even brought our own wine to enjoy on the drive. Very very nice and well kept boat. Would use them again!

   Vintage Wooden Open Limousine Boat in Menaggio

   Very happy with the experience. We used it for our wedding photo shoot. We had 2 photographers 1 videographer and a luggage for my wife’s dress. He was very accommodating and took us where we wanted to go. At the end we also wanted to do a drone shot, we were at the 1 hour mark and he stayed an extra 5-10 min for us to get that shot which we appreciate it. Overall great experience.
