Half-Day Escape on Lake Como — 4 Hours by Private Boat
€1100
4 hours · Prices are per boat (up to 6 guests) — not per person.
Four hours is the sweet spot: time to reach the legendary villas, drift into a quiet cove for a swim, and toast the afternoon with prosecco — all on your own private boat, at your own pace.
What four hours buys you
Time to slow down. A half-day lets your skipper build the route around what you love — the central-lake villas (Villa del Balbianello, Villa Balbiano, Villa Carlotta), the island of Comacina, the dramatic Orrido di Nesso — with room for a swim stop and a lingering pass beneath the most photographed facades on the lake.
Because the whole boat is yours, nothing is rushed. You decide when to pause for photos, when to swim, and when to simply sit back with a glass in hand as the shoreline slides by.
The route is yours
There is no fixed itinerary. Tell your skipper what matters — villas, swimming, a particular view, a lakeside lunch stop — and the four hours are shaped around it. Pickup is available anywhere on the lake, so we come to you.
Morning water is calm and glassy; late afternoon glows gold on the villas. Either way, four hours is enough to see the best of the central lake without watching the clock.
What's included
A private licensed skipper, fuel, prosecco, and up to 6 guests — the price is per boat, not per person. Bring swimsuits, sunscreen and a camera; we handle the rest.
The Half-Day Escape is a set price for the whole boat, for the full four hours.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price per person or per boat?+
Per boat. One price covers the whole private boat with up to 6 guests and a private skipper — a couple pays the same as a group of six.
Can we swim during the four hours?+
Yes. A half-day gives you plenty of time for a swim stop in the clear water, weather permitting. Bring a swimsuit and a towel.
Where do you pick us up?+
Anywhere on Lake Como — Como, Cernobbio, Bellagio, Varenna, Tremezzo, or your hotel dock. Tell us where you are staying when you book.
