The experience

Your own boat, the open waters of Lake Maggiore and one of Italy’s most remarkable botanical gardens — discover the lake from a different perspective on a private experience combining scenic navigation with the beauty of Villa Taranto. With your private guide and taxi-boat at your disposal, the journey is as much a part of the experience as the destination.

Depart from Stresa and cruise towards Verbania, passing close to the Borromean Islands. Enjoy views of the islands, elegant lakeside villas and mountain-framed shores before arriving at Villa Taranto, a botanical treasure renowned for its extraordinary variety of plants and flowers.

Explore the gardens created by Scottish botanist Neil McEacharn, whose vision transformed the grounds into a remarkable botanical landscape. Accompanied by your private guide, discover exotic species, mature trees, colourful flower beds and carefully designed pathways, with each season bringing its own palette of colours and surprises.

Take your time to admire the views, discover unusual plants and capture memorable photographs. Then step back aboard your private boat for the return to Stresa, enjoying the lake once more from the water. A refined escape that combines the freedom of private navigation with the tranquillity and botanical splendour of Villa Taranto.
