My family had their best canyoning experience ever with Alberto and they would like to thank him for a day they will remember forever! Alberto is experienced and fun and the whole family (1 adult, 1 11 year old and 3 16 year old girls) felt safe. The scenery is stunning and Alberto's knowledge of the area makes it interesting and exciting. His equipment was top notch and the children noted it was by far the best canyoning experience ever. We cannot wait to return and try other activities offered by this company. We are also thrilled with the photos Alberto captured for us.

Everything was really nice. The staff was nice. I didn't have enough cash money to pay and the guy said "no worries, in Italy, money or dying can always be done later". But still, in the info mail they said you can pay cash and not you can only pay cash. In the end it was no problem.
Very fun and chill atmosphere during the tour. The tour was amazing and so much fun, beautiful nature! There was no hurry at all, people could take pictures or do some jumps/slidings several times.
The only thing that was not ideal was that the water was not high enough so in the second part of our canyoning we could not jump anymore. This really affected the experience for me. Of course this is not the fault of the staff!! They did an amazing job.

My wife and I came to Lake Como last minute. We reached out to see if we could book a canyoning tour the next day. They informed us that there is a group minimum of 5 people, and they couldn't book us a private experience at the normal price, but they said they would see what they could do to make it happen.

They went above and beyond, rearranging several parties to align with ours so we would be able to go on the only day we were available.

Thank you Lake Como Adventures!

I have contacted Lake Como Adventures on the strength of their reviews and explained that we have 2 adults and 3 teenagers looking for an activity. They suggested canyoning activity based on our description and when we tried to book it - said we have to pay for the private tour pricing despite the fact that on their website the minimum amount of participants was listed as five and the price would be instead of 490 Euro, 295 Euro.

From their website: The Lenno canyon offer a 3 hours tour, 20 min. walk, with eventually a shorter version suitable for all the family and kids from 8/9 years old. Starting from 65€ per person if you want to join an existing 5 people group (55€ for kids under 14yrs old).

They refused to book us insisting that we need to pay for private tour despite contradicting directly their own website.

This sort of lack of professionalism is highly disappointing. As a result I would advise others to think twice before ordering from these people.

Hi, I thought that after over 20emails it was clear enough. Apparently not. Your family had 10&11 years old kids, we clearly told you we don't mix kids of that age in adults group tour. You came in the high season and unfortunately we only had adult groups in your small window of availability. We offered a possibility to match with another family of the same age but you didn't like the dates. All our guides were taken/booked for group tour with adults which take place at a standard time of the day. Having an extra tour for you would have been possible, but off the standard hours for group tour---> then it's called "private tour" which you were offered at even a lower rate than the one you stated, since is our interest that everyone can be accommodated and enjoy our tours at the best possible rate.

Planned a few days around Lake Como staying in Como. Hotel overlooked the lake and the site was beautiful. Boats up the lake to Bellagio and Menaggio were excellent as were both places. Food and drink all fresh and tasty. Plenty of places to explore and numerous photo opportunities. Great as a base to explore the lake or even travel up to Lake Lugano in Switzerland- only 30min by train.

We did the canyoning adventure with Alberto and had a blast! We hiked through the canyon, swam, went down waterfall slides, rappelled, jumped off 5-8m waterfall/ledges into water, etc. it was everyone’s first time and Alberto adjusted to assist us as needed. I highly recommend this experience for anyone wanting to do something different and adventurous! Grazie mille, Alberto.

What an experience!
We did this in mid-September with 4 in the sun. We were well guided by Alberto and felt very safe. The different jumps & slides provided different adrenaline kicks. We got good equipment so we were not too cold!
We would do it again immediately, highly recommended!

We had a really enjoyable experience canyoning in the gorge near Lenno. There were a range of jumps and slides. Albert was very encouraging and made it feel very safe at the same time as being exciting. The scenery was also beautiful. I would highly recommend it.

Davide and Andrea were our guides. They were very professional and kind, the path is very beautiful and for that, thank you.
I’ve been told the size of the group was very exceptional but I’m writing this comment hoping that what happened to us doesn’t happen to other people : FIFTEEN PEOPLE is way too much for this kind of activity. We spent most of our time waiting in cold water for the rest of the group to pass the obstacles. Long long minutes. It kills the vibe and turns the “adventure” you came for into what feels like a tourist trap.
I’m pretty sure this wasn’t the philosophy that started your business though…
I hope that was a one time mistake and that you will think twice before making groups that big in the future. People are not sheep. Thank you.

The river is by the lake, not in the upper mountains + it's not a very aquatic tour + mid August temperatures, so I doubt you could be "freezing" You booked last minute and you were guided by 2 guides for 15people , which is our maximum number and is reached just 2/3 times per season. A ratio guide-client which is way more client oriented than any other famous canyon destination in the WORLD. If you don't like activities with other people, you shouldn't go canyoning in an open group tour (we offer private tours as you were asked) in one of the busiest world destination on the weekend of mid August where ALL Europe is in vacation.

We did a canyoning trip during our holiday in Italy. It's was fantastic! The parkour was beautiful and very diverse: climbing, jumping, sliding. The whole shebang. Thank you Alberto for your expertise and making the canyoning adventure awesome! We would definitely recommend Lake Como Adventures to others!

Thanks again.
