We needed a boat tour of Lake Como for a family bucket list trip.
We had looked forward to this.
A previous company, left us hanging. So I was on the hunt to find a boat and a tour
But near the docks Giacommo..... Was wearing an Around The Lake Vest, so I approached him.
Very kind Very smart, friendly, flexible, superior English.
A fine young man of 24 yrs old.
He offered us a viewing of 2-3 boats, my wife picked Captain Lorenzo.
Skipper Lorenzo was super kind, smart and an excellent yacht pilot.
He provided us all some water.
He pointed out, points of interest, castles, villas and multiple 5 star hotels.
At the 1/2 point he poured us all a glass of Precato Wine.
We smiled We laughed We toasted our family outing.
This company, these fine young men went above and beyond, plus they stepped in and saved the day, allowing us to make a memory.
PS: Captain Lorenzo spoke very good English
His music selection and stereo were wonderful Cat Stevens, Journey, Michael Jackson.
At 22 yrs old his future is bright
Captain Lorenzo Tour Director Giacommo are both top shelf Italy Ambassadors.
Fair pricing Quick time to sail.
Our boat, turned out to be a Yacht.
Very comfortable seating
Magnificent views.
No regrets Five stars all day.
Giacommo even let me hold off on paying, until the boat arrived to give me "peace of...

The boat itself was super clean, comfortable, and surprisingly fast, which made the ride extra fun! We got to see so many stunning spots and hidden gems we never wouldโve found on our own.
To top it all off, Tommy recommended this amazing little ice cream place called Gelateria, and let me tell you โ divine is the only word that does it justice. That recommendation alone deserves a five-star review.
Honestly, everything about this experience was top-tier. If youโre visiting Lake Como, a boat tour with Around The Lake Como and Tommy is an...
ย ย ย Read moreMessaged about booking a boat for the same day and got a quick response, the entire process took a total of 10 minutes. We rented for 4 hours without a driver, the price was reasonable, maybe a bit on the higher side for two young adults but the experience made it totally worth it. We were lucky enough to not have to wait too long, and the twenty minutes that we did wait were accounted for when our time started. The guys on the docks were nice and explained everything concisely and quickly. This is one of those things that seem a little too good to be true, but I promise that youโll be getting your moneyโs worth.
On a side note, it was about 27 degrees outside and the water was an absolute...
