★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 95 reviews · 5 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $1,197Our pick

Follow Mauro by motorcycle from Como around the lake and into the Alps on a 5 to 6 hour ride. You will stop for coffee, snacks, lunch, and possibly a swim at quieter local spots. Helmets, jackets, gloves, fuel, and an English-speaking guide are included.

“We just returned from a week in Italy (Lake Como and Cinque Terre), and the day spent with Mauro riding motorcycles around Lake Como was truly one of the highlights for us! It was a gorgeous fall day, and we had the best time seeing so much of the area with Mauro leading the way. He is great company and easy to talk to, patient with the many questions I had about the area. We very highly recommend this experience and even hope to go back again for the Tuscany tour he is planning.”
