Details

Explore the beauties of Lake Maggiore and the Borromean Gulf with our private boat tour from Stresa to the Borromean Islands. You can decide for yourself whether to visit just one island or all three, and when to depart again from one island to the other.
The boats will depart from the town of Stresa, where you can start your navigation towards the archipelago. The destinations are Isola Madre, Isola dei Pescatori and Isola Bella. Isola Madre is the largest of the three and is distinguished by its unspoilt nature and the enchanting shades of colour it provides during the course of the day. On the island is the Palazzo Borromeo, which with its botanical garden will take you back in time to a completely tropical atmosphere. The second island worth visiting is Isola dei Pescatori (Fishermen's Island), whose name originates from the activity its inhabitants used to carry out. It is the only island that is still inhabited and here you can enjoy a good local fish lunch. You can conclude your tour by visiting Isola Bella, named after Isabella d'Adda, wife of Carlo III Borromeo. This place will take you back in time thanks to its Italian-style garden, where you can admire peacocks and pheasants roaming freely in the greenery.

They are very friendly and we saw all three Islands and it was amazing. Thank you very much for the cruise!

This is more of a water taxi service than a boat tour. It was beautiful out on the water however they were very quick to drop you off and get back to their taxi service stand. We were looking for more of a leisurely boat tour but I must have missed what this tour was offering. All in all we were able to see the beautiful islands on Lake Maggiore and look forward to returning soon.
