Frequently asked questions about boat tours on Lake Garda
What is the difference between boat tours and ferries on Lake Garda?
Boat tours are organised experiences designed for sightseeing and enjoyment of the navigation, often featuring scenic routes and onboard commentary. Ferries, on the other hand, are a public transport service that connects different towns along the lake and are mainly used to travel from one shore to another.
Is it better to choose an organised boat tour or a private boat tour?
An organised boat tour is ideal for those who want to enjoy a simple and well-structured experience while discovering the lake’s main scenic highlights. A private boat tour, on the other hand, offers a more exclusive and personalised experience, perfect for couples, families, special occasions or groups looking for greater flexibility and a tailor-made itinerary.
What happens in case of bad weather?
In the event of adverse weather conditions that do not ensure safe navigation, the boat tour may be modified, postponed or cancelled by the provider. If the tour is cancelled, an alternative solution or a refund will be offered in accordance with the applicable conditions.
Are boat tours refundable?
Yes, it is possible to cancel or modify your booking up to 48 hours before the departure of the boat tour. In this case, a refund will be issued minus a 5% handling fee.
If the cancellation is made by the provider, for example due to adverse weather conditions or operational issues, a refund or rescheduling option will be offered. In all cases, a 5% fee applies.
Alternatively, it is always possible to choose a new date or switch to another available tour.
Where do the boat tours depart from?
Boat tours mainly depart from the most popular towns on Lake Garda, particularly from areas with direct lake access and main boarding points. Exact departure details are provided in the description of each individual tour.
Is it necessary to book in advance?
Yes, advance booking is recommended, especially during peak season, to ensure availability for your preferred boat tour.
