We were unsure what time of day would be best to do the tour and Taxi Boat made the suggestion of a morning tour and thank god we did. The time we were in Varenna it was incredibly hot and humid and an afternoon cruise would’ve probably been very uncomfortable.
The morning tour was comfortable and it was so nice to be on the water and seeing all the villas and closer up than what the ferries go.
Our driver Matteo was punctual and courteous and he gave us information on the different towns and villas. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the cruise and said it was the highlight of their visit.
Thank you Matteo and Taxi Boat for a fantastic day! read less

We arrived Varenna Pier and walked along the pathway by the lake until we saw many speedboats docked in a kind of close area. Luca docked his boat opposite them on the lake side.
The cruise was smooth and the view all along the cruise was unbelievably breathtaking! Luca drove for us and he was friendly and funny.
The classic music was played and a bottle of Prosecco we requested to add into our trip was served chilled. The cruise went on with a perfect speed.... not fast and not slow. It covered all places as committed in the itinerary.
The boat can take up to 7-8 people.
Highly recommend the service of this boat cruise company to everyone. More read less

Our trip to Lake Como was a 60th Birthday Present for my mums 60th birthday and I wanted to book a tour/activity to add something even more special to the weekend and Taxi Boat Varenna were amazing. From my first email to them to the moment we left the boat they couldn't have been more helpful. Our guide Luca was very friendly and so informative and knowledgeable. He taught us so much about each town around the Lake and showed us so much too, he had a great sense of humour as well. Our two hour tour flew by and he even dropped us back off at Mennagio at our request which was slightly out of his way but he was happy to do so. All in all a great tour and made our weekend in Lake Como even more special. I would highly recommend Taxi Boat Varenna and look forward to going on another of their tours in the future. read less

Taxi boat Varenna was well worth the cost in our opinion. They picked us up promptly in Varenna and we spent a glorious afternoon on the lake. We took the "George Tour" and added a one hour tour of Villa Balbianello to it. It was all prearranged for us. Your private boat drops you off right at the dock below the villa and you simply stroll up the path and give them your name at the booth. The tour of the Villa is also well worth the money. It was very fascinating. The rest of the afternoon we motored by gorgeous villas and even waterfalls. More read less
