boat hire in Angera · Rio — Rio 550 (1990)

Very good experience. Responsive and friendly team. We recommend.

Great day of sailing and swimming on Lake Maggiore. The boat was excellent. Easy to book! Only the fuel at a designated pump was expensive. And there was no clarity about the price or quantity.

Giorgio is a friendly and good landlord. The boat is acceptable—the price-performance ratio is very good.

Wonderful welcome by Giorgio, very friendly and very accommodating, even when I asked to change the category of boat, thank you for everything

Nice people, nice experience on the lake. Nice reception, only not clearly indicated in advance that deposit must be paid in cash. No insight into petrol usage. Otherwise a very nice experience. Communicate quickly via whatsapp if you have questions on the way. The engine of the boat was a bit too light for the current that was there. Unfortunately the pump of the petrol station did not work and we called them and within 5 minutes they were there!! If you ever want to ask on lago maggiore then I definitely recommend this boat and they had booked a restaurant for us on the fishing island that was very nice! Had a very nice experience ☺️

Had a wonderful day on the water!!

Great welcome from Giorgio. The boat was really in very good condition, we were able to spend a great day on Lake Maggiore and enjoy an excellent meal on the fishermen's island. Thanks again.

Good organization and easy to book. Boat in order.

Perfect and friendly! Great time

Good price-quality ratio. Boat is a bit older but you didn't notice much of this. Good contact with Giorgio.

Very nice landlord, great boats and a perfect place to go boating!

Announcement: 2020 boat with 40 hp engine. Reality: 1990 boat with 25 hp 2-stroke engine. The power “25” written on the front and rear of the engine cover is hidden by black tape. Result: forced to push the engine hard to move forward and cost at the pump at the end of the day: €115. Giorgio is quite nice but only speaks Italian. The person who speaks English and writes the contract hurries away once we look a little too closely at the engine plate which confirms that we are indeed on a 25 HP.

Great boat, good explanation. Kindly received. We had sailed more than the average renter, but the petrol price was somewhat disappointing afterwards. But the landlord couldn't do anything about that?

My experience was not entirely positive, in fact quite problematic. There was a lack of communication between tour operator and owner, or mischief by the owner: I was contacted by the owner at 10:04 practically the scheduled time for departure (as I was preparing to get on the pier) telling me that the boat was not there as it had been rented by the agency to two different people. Not seeing other people on the pier I went into a rage and asked why I had to be the one penalized and not the other one, then I was told that the boat wasn't there at all, at that point I realized that behind it there was 'it was something incorrect and therefore a long argument began with the owner, my threats reached the point that I would not leave the pier and let any boat leave without the intervention of the police. Finally at around 10.45am I was assured that I would be given another boat, which was then delivered to me at 11.30am and given until 6pm. After all the initial misadventure everything went well, a nice outing definitely worth doing again. (All's well that ends well ???)

A really nice experience! The boat is not the newest but sails very well. We often rent a Rib boat on Lake Como. This boat is heavier and therefore more comfortable. The welcome is great! Nice mooring and nice people! Worth the effort!

We spent a very nice afternoon aboard Giorgio's Rio 550. The boat was as described. We were warmly welcomed by Giorgio, the owner, with all the necessary explanations. THANKS.

Had a great day, unfortunately the oil ran out halfway through, but that was quickly resolved because we received help on the lake. Definitely recommended for a day on the lake.

Nice boat for a nice day trip!

New boat. Very kind staff. Advised!
