We had THE BEST day driving around on Lake Como. The boat was in good condition and very comfortable for our party of 4! The guide (Jack) spoke great english and had great communication, he show’d us how to control the boat then off we went :) whole activity was seamless, thank you for making our 20th Anniversary so memorable ❤️✨

Very easy process, a quick demonstration from a member of their staff to show us how to drive the boat then off we went!

Loved the experience. The guide explained how to drive in a few mins and gave me loads of confidence even though I was a little anxious. Overall a delightful experience full with adrenaline rush when some waves hit the boat.

I really enjoyed the activity, the lake is awesome and the boat is too, loved the entire staff attention and experience itself, I will come back 100%. They explained very well the limits, rules, etc and how to guide the boat, very clearly, and in a direct meaning.

The activity was great, however the guide wasn’t. We were there at 9:50 for our 10a appointment. No representative from Around the Lake was there so we were waiting until 10:03 and finally I got a call from the rep saying he was on the way. We returned the boat 10 mins late in which he tried to charge us 70 euro extra…. It made no sense. He just made up that price because we lowered it over and over. Besides this blunder, the overall activity was great and amazing
