Lake Como holidays are set on the shores of this romantic Italian pre-Alpine lake, where steep, tree-clad hills meet expansive blue waters.
Taking the ferry over the calm waters of the lake provides lungfuls of fresh alpine air.

People that climb on board a seaplane, have many various reasons other than being pilots. Most people want to simply experience the pleasure of being in the cockpit, and being able to observe the instrument panel, and help guide the aircraft. Other reasons can be to experience the speed, acceleration and movement on a three dimensional axis, or to observe the scenery that flashes quickly past your eyes. Tours consist of 30 minute flights for two people
