You'll start by gliding past Villa Carlotta and its beautifully kept gardens, then by the cinematic Villa Balbianello from the Casino Royale Bond movie, followed by Villa la Cassinella – often considered the lake's most exclusive villa. You'll also spot the elegant Villa Balbiano, Comacina – the lake's only island – plus the charm of Villa Melzi in Bellagio and Villa Monastero in Varenna, all in one easy, laidback ride.
