Dreamy Italy Vacations For You

Italy Vacations – Why Is Lake Como is the Best Choice?

Lake Como is a top choice for many travelers planning Italy vacations. As the 3rd largest of all the lakes in Italy, and the deepest in Europe at 400 meters or 1,312 feet, it has been a prime destination for some of the wealthiest Italians and other prominent figures for centuries.

While visiting the many picturesque villages, castles and towers in this Italian lake, you sometimes get the feeling that you are in Tuscany with lush gardens of flowering azaleas and other times like you are somewhere on the Mediterranean coast with sparkling waters and lakeside breezes.

Imagine your perfect Italy vacation…view crystal blue waters from the outdoor terrace of your villa, indulge in the sweet scent of may-lilies and roses while eating your delicious lunch lightly drizzled with the best home-made olive oil.

Motorboat Rental Como

My Story Of a Motorboat Rental
Como, Italy

Let me share with you my experiences of getting a motorboat rental in Como, Italy. There’s a bit of humor, embarrassment, fear, pride and everything in between. Just to clear up…there are no motorboat rentals in the town of Como itself, we rented this cool boat from one of the northern towns.

First off, to begin amateurs like myself are only allowed to rent 40hp boats without a license which are the numbers any long-time boat operators would laugh at. “OMG, that is sloooow!” they say. Second, this was my very first time ever renting a boat let alone driving one.

Como Vacation


Your Ideal Vacation Awaits You…

A Lake Como Vacation?…does that phrase tickle a bone in your body? It tickled mine the first day I arrived into Como and caught a glimpse of the glittering waters that shimmer under a warm, Mediterranean sunshine.

Relax under a palm tree (Yes! we’ve got ’em) and watch the gentle waves roll in under your feet or explore on foot the myriad of museums and churches displaying precious artifacts and paintings spanning over an entire millennium.

Or, perhaps you want something more exciting and prefer to take part in active sports like hiking, water-skiing, kite-surfing and others.
