Lake Maggiore: Cruise from Stresa to the Hermitage of Santa Caterina｜Italy

Take a short private cruise on Lake Maggiore departing from Stresa and discover some of the most picturesque views of the western shore of the lake.

The experience takes place on a boat reserved exclusively for your group (maximum 6 participants) with a skipper. The cruise lasts approximately 45 minutes and the departure time can be arranged according to the needs of the participants.

Along the way, you'll pass elegant historic residences overlooking the lake, including:
