We were completely blown away by Damiano and Bertoldi Boats. We booked a private, 2 hour sunset tour and it was fantastic from start to finish. Damiano took the time to tell us all about Sirmione and surprised us with some sparkling wine and a small platter of delicious food. The boat itself was immaculate and very impressive. We will 100% be booking this when we return in the future and would recommend to all.

We loved everything about this tour. First of all, we had a very knowledgeable tour guide, his name is Camilla. He provided us with very interesting information and facts about the Euganean region. We drove in a comfortable van. We visited two wineries and had the most amazing sceneries while driving around and visiting the wineries. We visited wine cellars and learned a lot about the process of wine making. The tastings were done in different settings and were all perfect! This tour over exceeded our expectations and I think it is worth every dollar! You won't be dissapointed. Thank you Camilla, for making this a very memorable tour!

Our team did a virtual cooking class together on Zoom! The recipes and instructions were clear and we were ready when the class started. It was so much fun and I can't believe we were able to make an amazing risotto AND a tiramisu to enjoy with our families that evening. Julia, our chef, did a great job of identifying each next step while keeping us calm. She could look at our dishes and let us know if we needed a little something more or, uh oh, a little something less! The food was delicious and we really had a great time all together, despite being in different countries and different kitchens!

Salvo is a great host! He made all of his guests feel very welcomed and relaxed. I planned to get engaged to my girlfriend during the trip. Salvo took care of everything, we exchanged numbers a few weeks before the trip and he helped me plan it. On board he provides drinks and snacks, Which were top quality. I had all of my family with me, one of which was pregnant and he showed extra attention when she moved around the boat. My trip was a sunset tour and it certainly did not disappoint! Salvo kept in regular contact two days before the trip with updates of the lake and weather conditions. It appears quite pricey but I would definitely recommend. The general cost of things around lake Garda are fairly pricey anyway so it wasn’t really a surprise. Worth every penny! Think it worked about £37 pp for 2 and a bit hours.

We booked a private tour of sirmione online, the process was easy and as it was private we were able to leave 30 minutes before the allocated time.
