Overall, the trip was a great way to navigate locations that we otherwise would have had difficulty getting to ourselves. We were given ample time to do things, and the guides were very helpful with providing suggestions. However, the description is a little misleading. The "Scenical Cruise on the Como Lake" is simply a ride on the public ferry with anyone else who buys a ticket. This means there is no guarantee you will be able to get a window seat to even see the lake, as the ferry is usually always crowded. Also, they mention the town of Cadenabbia and provide a description, as if there will be time spent there. No time is spent there--it is simply a drop off spot while you wait for the ferry. Regardless, the trip is definitely worth paying for!

Unfortunately it was a bit wet for some of the tour, but our guide made sure we were all looked after. I think that there is too much "free time" in Lugano as most things were closed and it was very expensive to even have a cup of coffee at one of the cafes.

Silvia was amazing!! She is very knowledgeable, fun, and kind! She made a rainy day in Lake Como enjoyable! There was a good amount of time in Lugano, and I’m very appreciative of her waiting in that Bellagio ferry queue for us!! Definitely recommend this tour if you want to see the beautiful lakes, and want to learn a lot about Como, the surrounding towns, and Italian culture at the same time! This is a great tour to do in peak tourism season as it gets you in and out of popular areas fairly seamlessly!
