Full description

Cruise across the sparkling waters of Lake Garda on a guided boat trip. Relax in a sun-shaded seat on deck or below, as you take in the views and learn about the lake’s most iconic sights from your captain. Explore the historic town of Sirmione in a 2-hour stopover before heading back to port.

Take your seat on the tour boat and sail across the calm waters of Lake Garda. Learn about Villa di Maria Callas, Jamaica Beach, and the Roman history of the area from your captain. Take unforgettable photos in front of the "Fonte Boiola", a source of sulfurous water that heats the lake from below. 

Dock at the port of Sirmione, where you will have 2 hours of free time to walk through the charming alleys of the historic peninsula at leisure. Use the time to visit the Catullo's Caves, indulge in a delicious gelato, or have an espresso on the lakefront.

Then, climb back aboard the boat. On your way back to the dock, enjoy views of the stately Villa Canossa and the cypress and olive trees of Punta San Vigilio headland, considered the Pearl of the Lake, before arriving back at your starting point.

It was amazing in every possible aspect. What I wished was that there would be more free time while on Sirmione as it was filled with people and we could not spend time waiting and missed a point of interest. To anyone booking this tour, it is fun and worth it and a little tip: if you want to go to the Catullus Caves keep a look out for a little train that takes you there , that is if you don't feel like walking.

The boat trip was well organized, the boat and the group manageable. The break of 2 hours in Sirmione is sufficient. The information from the tour guide (Italian, English and German) was detailed, but unfortunately difficult to understand in the rear, open part of the boat. All of the viewpoints described were approached and explained to us. all in all a nice afternoon on the water in much too hot weather.

Beautiful about 1 hour trip with a small ship to Sirmione. Beautiful but crowded city with many ice cream parlors to feast on. German/English speaking tour guide on board who explains a lot. At the jetty in Bardolino there was some confusion as to which boat is the right one. Conclusion: nice 4-hour trip, but a total of 40 euros for 2 people would be more appropriate.
