I enjoyed the kayaking and the guide was nice but for what we paid i expected to be paddling a longer distance and seeing a little more of the coastline. It was beautiful and nice to view Bellagio from the ocean. We shared a kayak.

What a lovely way to enjoy the morning! Wear flip flops or barefoot is good too! Mich, was lovely and very informative. The lake is beautiful from the kayak. It was not too challenging we were in a double so my hubby did the heavy lifting but it was all good!

Very fun experience. Make sure to find a bathroom before if needed as one is not provided. Loved the surprise at the end and the tour guide was super nice and helpful.

We booked this for our first morning in Bellagio and what a treat! The lake was so quiet and our guide so knowledgeable. A lovely way to see Lake Como.

The tour was great, but pls note that you might get wet clothes from the waves. The guide was nice and the surroundings really beautiful.

Thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The water can get a little choppy, I thought it all part of the fun - but if you’re a nervous swimmer you might get anxious. However, our guide instilled confidence and the kayaks are very stable. The guide Michael (wrong spelling - sorry!) was informative and humorous but low key enough to allow us to enjoy the natural beauty all around. It was wonderful to see the towering cliffs and cloud wreathed mountains from a different angle. Great bit of exercise too!

The guide, Michaela, was great. He was very knowledgeable about the area. Made suggestions for other places/things to do on visit

This was one of my top favorite things I did in my entire trip in Italy. I think it was a fun mix-up from just a normal boat ride on the lake - and the morning time slot was IDEAL weather (went mid-August). I thoroughly enjoyed this and would highly recommend it to everyone! It also was a decent amount of work and my shoulder, that has had issues / needed PT recently for, started bothering me pretty early on. I shared that with my tour guide and he quickly told me to let him know if it got too bad and he'd hook my kayak up to his, which gave me peace of mind.
