My friend and I booked a tour with Violetta and we had a wonderful time. She made us feel welcome and at ease and gave us a very 'local' feeling tour. We got a private tour and if you have the opportunity to do it privately its worth the extra money as Como is best done slowly and serenely. We made the joke that we would pay her train ticket to follow us to Rome and Florence for more tours! She did put us in touch with some guides in Rome, talk about going the extra mile!Great Tour in which we got to experience the lake and the villas in a one day. Violetta reached out to us beforehand and ensured everything was organized and set up how we wanted. She adopted the level of detail to our interest level and was great company throughout the day.

Great Tour in which we got to experience the lake and the villas in a one day. Violetta reached out to us beforehand and ensured everything was organized and set up how we wanted. She adopted the level of detail to our interest level and was great company throughout the day. Highly recommend to use a guide as Como in peak season is not easy to navigate in a short period of time. Also, highly recommend Violetta!This tour was a wonderful day of exploring Lake Como and seeing the beautiful villas and villages. Violetta was incredibly knowledgeable and kind and let us do things at our own pace. I highly recommend this if you plan on going to Lake Como!!

Violetta is a great communicator and we were able to adjust the trip due to some closures and boat availability. Would definitely recommend for anyone planning a visit.We were able to visit multiple cathedrals and churches in Como before getting on the boat to Bellagio.

We were able to visit multiple cathedrals and churches in Como before getting on the boat to Bellagio. Normally, this trip goes to Villa Balbianello, but there are not as many boats that run in the off-season. The tour guide contacted me well ahead of time to ask which one I wanted to visit. Bellagio was very pretty, but Villa Balbianello is a popular movie location.
