Villas boat tour (north/south)

By boat to discover the most beautiful villas on Lake Como

In addition to its natural beauty, Lake Como is famous for the villas on its shores, along both shores: this 4-hour private boat tour aims to show them in all their artistic and architectural magnificence from a unique and special angle, sailing on the waters of Lake Como, with a stop on the ground which allows you to visit one of these places.

The tour can be customised according to the location of departure: in the northern part of the lake you can admire the villas of Menaggio, Varenna, Tremezzo, Bellagio, on the tour southwards the architecture of Cernobbio, Moltrasio, Lenno e Bellagio.

Answers to frequently asked questions

What happens in case of bad weather?

Safety is our top priority. In the event of adverse weather conditions that make sailing unsafe, the captain (if any) or our team will assess the options. Generally, an attempt will be made to reschedule the charter or tour date. If this is not possible, the refund policies in the contract terms will apply.

Can I customise the tour or rental itinerary?

Yes, we offer flexibility. For bareboat charters, you are free to sail within the permitted limits. For private tours with a skipper, you can make changes or create your own itineraries by writing to experience@nausika.it.

Can I bring food and drink on board?

For bareboat charters (without crew), you are free to organise your own catering. For many guided/private tours or skippered charters, we sometimes offer refreshment or lunch packages on board at an additional cost, but you are often allowed to bring your own. Always check the specific conditions when booking.

Where is the meeting point? Are there parking spaces available?

The meeting point for boat hire and shared tours is at our Yacht Club “Nausika”, Via Montecchio Nord 21 - 23823 Colico (LC). Reservable parking spaces are available here at a cost of €15. For private tours, the meeting point can be arranged as required.

What does the rental/tour price include?

The basic price usually includes the use of the boat and compulsory safety equipment. Additional costs, such as fuel, compulsory insurance, food and drink, and parking are excluded and specified separately. We advise you to check the product details carefully.

Can I bring my dog or pet on board?

We accept small dogs (maximum 10 kg) on many of our boats. It is compulsory to indicate their presence when booking. Extra charge 15€.
