Kevin was a great tour leader - Good value for money - fantastic scenery and details. Some Vidi Italian assistants snub passengers when asking which is their tour at the meeting place - luckily our tour leader Kevin was amazing 🤩

A long but perfect day - I had a wonderful time. A lot of that was due to our wonderful tour guide Chiara who was super attentive, knowledgeable and just all round kind/passionate about making this a good experience for the guests. The views were spectacular and personally I felt like we spent a perfect amount of time at each stop. Yes with big groups there’s always a chance of a bit of chaos, it is to be expected but our guide was very good at keeping things in order, reminding people to get water/use the bathroom etc. And made sure no one was left behind. All in all I felt it was a great experience and would recommend this to others. Thanks again to Chiara for making it a great day!

Wonderful tour, just enough alone time, long day but worth the trip! - I was traveling with 2 young adult children. This trip was perfect. It was a great way to get a view of Lake Como and Bellagio. The ferry was indoors and smooth. Not chilly as we thought it may be. The area is beautiful and scenic. The tour guide was fabulous, I wish I remember his name. It was only his 3rd tour and he was a younger gentleman and fantastic! 5 stars for him and the bus driver.
Bus boarding in Milan was very easy. Look for the buses labeled Veritalia Tours. We walked up and were told were to go immediately. The stop in Lake Como was just long enough to eat and shop/walk a bit. We had the honor of it being Republic Day in Italy and the entire town was bustling with political figures, police, dancing and music for a festival. We did see the Italian firemen propel down the side of a church and hang the Italian flag while the anthem played in the background. It was spectacular. The stop in Bellagio was a little rainy but we had a jacket and umbrella. Plan ahead and carry a bag. Bellagio was breathtaking. The town was alive with character, and we enjoyed a delicious Seabass/Steak meal with a lemoncello spritz. Search for the side street restaurants. I would recommend this trip and agency. It's a long day but worth it. Cons: Ferry is 2 hours. Would have been ok with 1 hour-there is a snack bar, bar and toilet on board. You also skip the ferry line with this tour, a big plus! Enjoy and spend the day. It's a wonderful exper

Very nice trip to a beautiful location - Bus was very comfortable. Portable headsets cut out if you got too far from the host. Time in Como and Bellagio determined by ferry times, so may be less than 2 hours. We thought we got great seats on the boat in the back near the rails, but folks stood along the rails and blocked our view, so we ended up standing most of the time anyway.

Easy way to see Lake Como from Milan - This tour was a very convenient way to see Lake Como while staying in Milan. The 2-hour boat ride really helped to see a lot of the lake in a short amount of time. The boat was very crowded, so it was a little challenging to fight for space up top to get good pictures. Overall, we would recommend this tour to see Lake Como from Milan, but it is mostly guided transportation. The tour guide did point out some key villas and landmarks, but it’s mostly an opportunity to explore on your own without having to worry about transportation.

Awful!! Pick a different tour - We did this tour a few years ago, and wow- how things have changed!
The first time we did the tour we had a private boat ride, this time we were on the water taxi… the entire time… no good viewing
Definitely skip this one and find another
