FAQ: Boat Trips

Are your Lake Como boat tours private or shared?

All our experiences are fully private cruises on lake Como, designed exclusively for you and your guests. We do not offer shared or crowded tours, ensuring privacy, comfort and a relaxed pace on board.

We offer several private options depending on how much time you wish to spend on the lake:

  • Half-Day Private Cruise: approx. 4 hours

  • Full-Day Private Cruise: approx. 6–7 hours

  • Sunset Private Cruise: approx. 3–4 hours
    Custom durations and tailor-made itineraries are also available.

Our private cruises depart from Bellagio, Varenna, Menaggio, as well as selected private hotel docks on Lake Como. Departure points are confirmed during booking based on your location and itinerary.

Each private cruise includes attentive onboard hosting and carefully curated hospitality. Depending on the experience, inclusions may feature:

  • Welcome coffee

  • Aperitivo with prosecco or refreshments

  • Fresh seasonal fruit and water on board
    For full-day cruises, we can also assist with restaurant reservations ashore upon request.

Highlights may include some of Lake Como’s most iconic sights, such as Villa del Balbianello, Villa Carlotta, Villa Monastero, Villa Gaeta (Casino Royale), Villa La Cassinella and Isola Comacina.
Routes are flexible and adapted to the duration and preferences of each private cruise.

Yes, our Lake Como boat tours are pet-friendly, and dogs are welcome on board. Please let us know in advance when booking so we can ensure the best possible experience for you and your pet.

Yes. Safety and comfort are essential parts of every experience with Tre Nodi Sailing.

Our sailing boat is equipped with all the required safety equipment, including life jackets and navigation safety systems. Every tour is hosted by an experienced skipper with deep knowledge of Lake Como and its weather conditions.

Before departure, guests receive a brief introduction to the boat and the experience to ensure everyone feels comfortable on board. During the tour, navigation and weather conditions are constantly monitored so that guests can relax and enjoy the lake with complete peace of mind.

Our boat trips on Lake Como operate from April to October, weather permitting. Each season offers a different atmosphere and a unique way to experience the lake.

In spring, the lake becomes vibrant again after winter. One of the most beautiful moments of the season is when the famous wisteria flowers bloom around many historic villas along the shoreline. Spring also offers longer days and a peaceful atmosphere before the peak summer season.

During summer, the lake is lively and full of energy. A private boat tour allows guests to enjoy Lake Como away from the crowds, relaxing on board and stopping for refreshing swims in the lake during the warmest days.

In early autumn, the atmosphere becomes quieter and more intimate again. The surrounding hills begin to change color, the air is fresh and the lake returns to a slower rhythm, making it a wonderful time for a calm and elegant sailing experience.
