ENJOY YOUR LAKE COMO TOURS
Fun, attention to detail and personalized service. All the excitement of the Lake, to be experienced your way.
THE SUBACCO PHILOSOPHY
Subacco was born from a love story, the one between Roberto and Lake Como.
It was a true love at first sight between a man of the sea accustomed to the waves, the immense blue, the wind and the saltiness and an intimate place, set between high and green mountains where the water becomes a magic mirror capable of concealing stories, secrets, landscape and architectural gems that leave one speechless.


Roberto lived the lake intensely, explored its depths and sailed every mile of it, and realized that his life would be dedicated to sharing the wonder, telling the story, and letting everyone know about “the most beautiful lake in the world.”
Thus was born Subacco, the reference point for those who want to experience Lake Como intensely, discovering it from the privileged perspective of his boats.
/ FUN. LOVE. HOSPITALITY

/ OUR CAPTAINS
YOUR GUIDE TO CRUISING ON LAKE COMO
For Subacco, ensuring an excellent experience is not just a goal but the way we want to be known and remembered.
That is why our boats are all selected from the best on the market, latest generation and equipped with every comfort and our captains are carefully chosen for their empathy, preparation and values.
This is how we have become the leaders for Lake Como boat tours and have become part of the memories of many people who have discovered the lake with us.

I am Roberto,
but everyone now calls me “Subacco”, the name of my company, identifying me completely with it and with the reality that I created and strongly wanted and that was born from the fusion of all my greatest passions: the world of boating and diving.
Living in Como, I have in fact had the great privilege of getting to know Lake Como, one of the most beautiful in Europe, unique and famous un all over the world, in all its facets, plowing its waters with my boats, but also savoring its mysteries by diving into its depths.
Over time I have elevated my passions to something more, so much so that I have obtained professional titles, beyond my boating license, to that of Pilot Motorist, which gives me the ability to drive complex boats (up to several tons of cargo) and become a Diving Master, one of the most important titles in the diving world.
Of course, I also demanded an equal level of professionalism for my staff, and in fact all the members of the Subacco group have earned several qualifying titles in both the nautical and a tourist sectors.
This has always combined with my sunny and sociable nature and the incredible energy I derive from meeting new people from all over the world, each with their own story and experiences to tell. From all this, the idea of “Subacco Lake Como Tours & Rent” was born, an opportunity to introduce and appreciate the wonders of Lake Como, to which I am intimately attached, in a highly professional and qualified environment, but also with the desire to be together and be able to share a unique experience.
With the boats of the “Subacco” fleet, it is possible to enjoy the wonders of Lake Como, either accompanied by a staff member, an experienced captain and a lover of the most curious anecdotes to be told, or on your own after a proper briefing with experienced staff who will be at your complete disposal to explain the basics and regulations that will allow you to have fun discovering the wonderful sights that only Lake Como can give, in total safety.

Good morning, I’m Alessandro Bartesaghi, a 25-year-old young man.
I’ve been working as a skipper on Lake Como for three years, and I believe it’s one of the most beautiful jobs I’ve ever had.
I’m a cheerful, dynamic person who loves being around people.
My three favorite villas on the lake are:
- Villa D’Este – One of the most beautiful villas/hotels on the lake, rich in history and elegance.
- Villa Roccabruna – Built between 1906 and 1910 for industrialist Emilio Wild, it is now home to the prestigious five-star Mandarin Oriental hotel.
- Villa Troubetzkoy – Built in the mid-19th century, it takes its name from Russian Prince Alexander Troubetzkoy. Its style is inspired by Nordic chalets, and today it is owned by Pascal Cagni, who contributed to Apple’s development between 2000 and 2012.
I look forward to welcoming you aboard Subacco Tour to explore our amazing lake!

I am Luca,
originally from Sardinia, Italy. There he began his career as a skipper and soon became accustomed to sailing through beautiful seascapes. Since joining the SuBacco team, his perception of beauty has been further refined with the exploration of the fascinating and hidden treasures of Lake Como, and this happened especially when he met Villa La Casinella, a place of extraordinary elegance and quiet. He speaks fluent English and is a great entertainer.

I am Leonardo,
born in Foggia class of 2002 and law student.
Since I was a child I had a great passion for the sea and boats, on which I grew up…this passion has then turned into my job as captain, first all over the Mediterranean and now on Lake Como; a choice dictated by my love for this fairy-tale place that enchants for its elegance and embodies the Dolcevita…it is no coincidence that my favorite villa is Villa d’Este, also home of the homonymous classic car elegance competition.
I am waiting for you to discover together this wonderful lake.

Hello,
I’m Fabio, a cheerful and outgoing 40-year-old captain, born and raised on Lake Como. I’ve always been in love with the lake and its mountains. With passion and expertise, I strive to create enjoyable moments for my guests on board, where, between laughter and a glass of wine, we can admire together the wonders of the lake’s villas and landscapes.
My favorite villas are:
- Villa Erba and Villa Balbianello, famous movie sets
- Villa Fontanelle, a historic lakeside villa and former residence of the renowned designer Versace
- Nesso, with its enchanting waterfall and hidden secrets
