“12/26/25- Our tour of Lake Como, Bellagio, and Lugano was overall very enjoyable. Transportation was excellent—clean, modern, and comfortable, truly 5-star service. The only issue we experienced was with the tour guide’s English. Although we selected an English-speaking tour, the guide was not very fluent, which made explanations difficult to understand at times. A guide with stronger English skills would have greatly improved the experience”
