I highly recommend the lake transport as the way to get from Bellagio to Menaggio when traveling…read morearound Lake Como. For just 4.60 Euro, this ship was safe and took about 15 minutes for the trip. There were lots of seats above deck, below deck outside, and under the covered deck, and still the ship was crowded on a September weekday.
