About the experience

Step aboard a true icon of Italian elegance and spend an unforgettable day discovering the beauty of Lake Maggiore from the deck of a Riva Super Ariston. With its hand-polished mahogany, vintage charm, and powerful performance, this legendary boat transforms a day on the water into a refined, cinematic experience. This is more than a tour—it’s a luxurious escape into la dolce vita.

Departing from Stresa in the morning, your full-day itinerary begins with a scenic cruise to Isola Bella, where you’ll have time to explore the majestic Borromeo Palace and its cascading baroque gardens. Continue on to Isola Madre, the largest of the Borromean Islands, where peacocks roam among exotic plants and peaceful pathways invite you to linger. After a relaxing onboard aperitivo, the tour brings you to Isola dei Pescatori, the only inhabited island, where you can enjoy a delicious lunch at a lakeside restaurant or stroll its charming alleyways. Later in the day, the boat glides toward Santa Caterina del Sasso, where the monastery carved into the cliff face offers breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. Throughout the tour, there will be time to pause for swimming, sunbathing, or a glass of champagne in secluded bays.

What truly sets this experience apart is the exclusive atmosphere aboard the Riva Super Ariston. With its classic curves, polished chrome, and rich heritage, it’s more than just a boat—it’s a floating work of art. Your expert captain tailors the route to your interests, offering total flexibility and personalized service from start to finish. No crowded ferries, no fixed timetables—just you, the lake, and the timeless pleasure of cruising at your own pace. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to the best, this full-day tour is a masterclass in luxury, elegance, and slow travel on one of Italy’s most stunning lakes.

    We had a fantastic time with Raffaele! I highly recommend his service. For a nice day out on the lake I recommend going for a swim by Isola Madre (Riva’s work well for swimming), lunch at Verbano st the Pescarore island and visit to the Palazzo at Isola Bella. We were two adults - Raffaele’s Riva would comfortably fit max 3 adults (plus Skipper) in my opinion. Best Tomi
