The cruise begins at the Como pier near the Lario bar. The route passes the Life Electric installation by Daniel Libeskind and then Villa Olmo, a neoclassical villa designed in 1797. Continuing north along the western shore, the tour shows Villa Erba, built between 1894 and 1898 in Alessian mannerist style, now used for trade fairs and events. The boat then moves past Tavernola and Cernobbio, including views of the Villa d'Este hotel and the Villa le Fontanelle estate, which features an octagonal church available for private weddings. Next comes Moltrasio, Carate Urio, and Laglio, where George Clooney's Villa Oleandra is located. The tour continues to Orrido di Nesso, crossing the lake to see the natural waterfall and the 2,000-year-old Roman Civera bridge. The cruise proceeds to Torno, passing Villa Pliniana and the recently renovated Grand Hotel "Il Sereno," then Blevio with the Mandarin Oriental and Villa Troubetzkoy. Finally, the boat returns to Como for drop-off. Bottled water, carbonated drinks, and alcoholic beverages are included during the cruise.
