Mark Twain described Lake Como as "the most voluptuous scene we have yet looked upon", and visitors are still fascinated by its beauty. Exploring the Jewel of Lombardy on a boat is the best way to appreciate its beauty. Board a private taxi boat accompanied by a professional skipper. Admire the views, villas, gardens and traditional fishing villages lining the banks. As you sail, enjoy a picnic on board, sampling some local products. Fall in love with Villa d'Este and its fountains and Villa Oleandra, the home of Hollywood actor George Clooney. Go ashore to take a stroll in Bellagio or Varenna. A magical journey in a picturesque setting.
