PRIVATE - Varenna Private Cruise & Castle Views

The pleasure of your own boat, the stories of a private guide and the views from a medieval castle — discover central Lake Como through an experience that combines time on the water with exploration on foot.

Depart from Bellagio or Tremezzo aboard a private Venetian-style boat. Cruise around the Bellagio peninsula, taking in views of Menaggio, Cadenabbia and Limonta as your guide shares stories about the surrounding landscape. Raise a glass of Prosecco and savour the scenery from the comfort of your boat.

Arrive in Varenna and follow a cobbled path to the Castello di Vezio, a walk of approximately 30 minutes. Overlooking the lake, this ancient military outpost invites you to discover its defensive walls and underground spaces, while ghost-like sculptures lend an intriguing atmosphere to the grounds.

Climb the tower for panoramic views across the water and surrounding mountains — a memorable perspective on the scenery you have explored by boat. Return to Bellagio or Tremezzo with another opportunity to enjoy the lake from the water.
