BLEVIO SIGHTSEEING TOUR FIELD GUIDE
An hour on Lake Como’s storied shore: villas, villages and a glimpse of celebrity life
A one‑hour private cruise from Como that threads Blevio, Torno and Cernobbio to show the lake’s grand villas and lakeside towns—this guide explains what you’ll see and what to know before you go.
An hour on Lake Como’s storied shore: villas, villages and a glimpse of celebrity life.
In a compact, one‑hour loop from the public dock in Como you slip northward along Lake Como’s western shore, passing a succession of aristocratic villas and postcard villages — Blevio and Torno among them — with stopovers that include Villa Troubetzkoy, Villa Fontanelle and the historic Villa Olmo. The route is delivered as a private cruise, offering close-up views of lakeside architecture and a chance to spot modern celebrity residences framed against the alpine foothills.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
A parade of lakeside villas
The tour runs past an array of historic summer residences — Villa Troubetzkoy, Villa Roccabruna, Villa Cademartori, Villa Taverna and Villa Olmo — each set directly on the water and reflecting the region’s noble villa tradition.
Blevio, Torno and Cernobbio’s lakeside charm
The itinerary threads small lakeside towns: the first village encountered north of Como is Blevio, followed by the picturesque borgo of Torno and the elegant waterfront of Cernobbio with its celebrated hotels.
Familiar names and intimate views
Along the way you’ll pass Laglio and the residence associated with George Clooney, plus Moltrasio’s Villa Fontanelle — scenes that combine modern celebrity lore with centuries of lakeside history.

What the hour feels like
The Dreamer Tour is a brisk, observational cruise: from Como’s public dock you head north past Blevio’s noble villas, continue through Torno toward Laglio to view the well‑known residence, then return with extended vistas of Cernobbio’s ornate hotels and the 18th‑century Villa Olmo before arriving back in Como. The trip is run as a private experience and is designed for close, lakeside sightlines rather than on‑shore stops.
