About Lakeside Italy
Lake Como, shared by someone who loves it.
A small-group day tour created by Italy Bespoke Tours, based in Como.
A note from the founder
Hi, I’m Fabio, and I love this lake.
I’m a local, and this lake has always been part of my life. I still get excited every time it opens up in front of me, and sharing it is the best part of my work.
Over the years I have lived in six countries across Europe, Asia and Oceania and travelled to nearly fifty more. I have worked in architecture and design on international projects, led private excursions among the Norwegian fjords, and worked in high-end hospitality in Australia. I loved every one of those chapters, and each one taught me something about how to make a day feel effortless.
And yet nothing has ever beaten this corner of Italy: the light on the water, the villages, the ferry crossing, a long lunch with a glass of regional wine. This is the Italy I want you to see.
I founded Italy Bespoke Tours in 2022 out of passion for exactly this, and Lakeside Italy is our newest adventure. I designed every part of the day myself, and I can’t wait for you to see why I love it so much.
Our approach
Four principles behind the day.
A considered route
Menaggio and Bellagio, joined by a ferry crossing that offers some of the best views of the lake.
A small group
No more than seven guests in a Mercedes V-Class, with a professional driver.
Time to explore
Free time in both villages, so that each guest can experience them at their own pace.
Local knowledge
A typical local restaurant, regional wines and a route chosen by a local who knows the lake well.

Stories from our clients
Kind words from Italy Bespoke Tours guests.
Lakeside Italy is a project of Italy Bespoke Tours. This is what guests of the agency have said about travelling with us.
We had Fabio arrange our tours and transfers from Rome to Positano! We were 8 people and It was very easy as he was in constant contact with us. The drivers were all professional and punctual and the tours were amazing!!!
Jasna
We never had any delays and had true 5 star treatment. […] We felt safe and taken care of- like celebrities!
Nikki
Fabio did an amazing job planning this trip for us. It was truly a vacation, since we did not have to deal with the stress of figuring out tickets, transfers, tours, and a myriad of other details that make a trip to cities as busy as Rome and Florence stressful.
