Great Excursion in Bellagio - My partner and I loved our private three hour sail around Bellagio and the nearby towns. It was so fun to be out on the water and see the villas from a different perspective. Cristina's communication was clear during our booking confirmation and leading up to our sail even with poor weather in the forecast. Frederico made a great tour guide around the lake during our sail. The focaccia appetizer and prosecco were icing on the cake. I would recommend this excursion to any size group if they'll take you out on the boat. We had a cloudy day, but it was still enjoyable and we learned about many beautiful properties and the history of the region itself.

Great Sailing Experience on Lake Como! - My husband and I were in Bellagio celebrating our 50th Wedding Anniversary. We booked a three hour private sailing tour on Lake Como with Bellagio Yacht Experience. Unfortunately, the day we were scheduled to go out the winds on the lake were very strong and the water was very choppy. Cristina contacted me to ask if we would like to postpone it until the next day, but we were unable to as it was our last day in Bellagio. Knowing it was our anniversary, they agreed to take us out. Frederico was so kind, very knowledgeable, and a pleasure to be with. We were hoping the winds would subside, but, unfortunately, after about 30-45 minutes, we decided to head back in. Frederico offered to refund our money which he and Cristina did. They were both so sweet, and the communication with them from start to finish was excellent. I highly recommend them for a tour of Lake Como. They were both such a pleasure to work with. They even had a delicious cake for us to celebrate our anniversary! Thank you Frederico & Cristina!

BOOK NOW, amazing day on the water!! - It was 8 friends in total on the sail boat, we had AN AMAZING DAY. So relaxing and fun and honestly the absolute best way to see Lake Como. We did a round trip to/from Bellagio with a quick stop in Varenna. Our skippers were so great and Cristina’s communication before hand made the organizing and finding the boat a breeze. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

10/10 WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND - 10/10 Recommend doing this excursion. We had the MOST WONDERFUL time. Our tour guide, Frederico (and his wife, who coordinates the excursion), was GREAT. He was an excellent mix of educational, entertaining, and funny. We were a laid back group of 5 girls who went for a 40th birthday party (from the USA). It was honestly one of the highlights of our entire trip through Bellagio, Tuscany, Florence, and Milan. Can't say enough great things about that experience. Would do it again TOMORROW! The personal/private experience was just so fabulous. Don't miss this one!

BOOK IT! Amazing experience! - AMAZING!! Frederico (I think that was his name) was such a hospital captain! There were 5 of us ladies and we enjoyed every minute sailing beautiful Lake Como. Frederico showed us all the landmarks, we took pictures, he took extra care to have a smooth sailing experience since it was quite windy that day. We had a picnic lunch and drank aperol all afternoon on the boat- perfect day! (We brought some picnic foods and he also had some prosecco and baked goods for us).

Great way to see the lake! - Our family of seven thoroughly enjoyed our charter around the lake with Captain Federico. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area’s history and we enjoyed Our conversations with him. The pastries were the best we had in Italy! Our weather was not ideal and BYE accommodated us without hesitation so we could enjoy our sail without rain. I highly recommend this sailing experience. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Magical Como Experience - Our family booked a private sail around Lake Como on Frederico & Cristine's beautiful sailboat. They accommodated our change from one day to the day before because rain was expected, and we had a very special need for sunshine: our daughter's engagement! Cristine took care of setting up the proposal, asking them to pose for an Instagram post in front of Villa Balbianello. Then our soon-to-be son-in-law went down on one knee to ask for her hand. Passing boats shouted best wishes, everyone laughed and cried, we broke out the Prosecco and it was all MAGICAL. Frederico and Cristine, you are part of our family's memories forever. Thank you for making our wishes come true! To those thinking about booking, Frederico and Cristine are amazing; you will never forget seeing Como from the water with the sun, sounds, breezes and breathtaking views! So, so worth it!

Beautiful sunset sail in Lake Como - We had such a lovely experience on Federico’s boat! Firstly, Cristina was wonderful to communicate with. She was so helpful and accommodating as we had to reschedule through bad weather. We were so glad we were able to reschedule as we had a fantastic and relaxing time. Federico gave us options on routes, we trusted his recommendation and enjoyed a tranquil sunset sail. We thank both of them for their flexibility, great communication, kind nature, and great experience. Recommend booking!

Amazing!! - Cristina and Frederico were the most helpful, informative hosts. They not only gave us a tour of lake como, we swam and they were about to help us arrange our transport back to Cernobbio. We can’t say enough wonderful things about them both.
