Boat Trips at Lombard Lakes

Iseo, Garda, Como. Boat trips on the Lombardy lakes offer an alternative point of view. From the lakes to the villages that surround them.

Did you know that it is possible to go on unforgettable Boat trips at Lombard lakes

These fascinating trips are a creative way of discovering the Region's basins. Watch the surrounding hills from a different perspective and choose to either take an entire boat cruise on one go or make brief stops at various creeks in this stunning natural backdrop.

Boat sailing in the Garda is one of the fastest means of transportation in the area. You may travel on board of modern catamarans to quickly reach the shores or hop on a motorboat to go at a slower pace and perhaps even enjoy lunch at the ship's restaurant.

You may decide to land in Sirmione, visit the Fortress of Scaligera and the Caves of Catullo. History enthusiasts can get off in the creek of Salò and see the Vittoriale degli Italiani, Gabriele d'Annunzio's famous abode.

Lake Iseo displays its fairer side with its historic buildings and manors facing the water with precious private gardens. Walk along its boroughs' picturesque streets and consider visiting the island of Monte Isola.

Como offers numerous possibilites to live quiet and reinvigorating day with boat trips to renowned Lombard localities. Start with Bellagio, with its aristocratic Villas, then the lush vegetation and the archaeological sites of the Isle of Comacina.
