This was such a lovely experience! The meet up was easy and the ride up was scenic and pleasant. Maria shared interesting local history on the way up. After a nice walk we were treated to a delicious picnic with a stunning view. The food and wine were plentiful and of good quality, much of it local. Maria’s knowledge of the area and friendly nature really added to the experience. I highly recommend this very cool adventure! Grazie Maria!

Get away from the crowds at the lake and head up into the mountains for an experience you will never forget! The picnic far exceeded our expectations and the pictures truly don't do justice to the views and the quality of the food! Our guides Sveta and Andrey were great and very accommodating and made for one of the best highlights on our family trip.

It’s a breathtaking view and perfect picnic arrangements by the host, Maria. Due to the cold weather on original date, Maria works around to meet with our schedule and shared with us a great amount of local knowledge. We had a wonderful time.

Fantastic day! We started in Varenna and drove into the hills and did trek about 15 minutes to our picnic spot which was over the top! The views were stunning and the food and beverage layout was 5 star. Thank you Maria.

My husband and I are on our honeymoon in Varenna, Lake Como. The guide Maria was very welcoming and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to plan an amazing picnic adventure. The view was truly amazing as well as the food and wine. Roberto provides the meat, and he kindly made fettuccine with boar meat as a special gift and some other fun beverages and dessert. We felt like we had an authentic local experience. Don’t pass this up!!!

This picnic was an unexpected gem and experience! Maria was so organized and thought of everything. She shared her knowledge and history of the area as she drove us through tiny villages high above the lake on our way to the picnic area. The scenery, food and company were exceptional!!!

This has been the highlight of my trip. The scenery was spectacular 、the guides, Maria and Uri were excellent. The food was delicious and it was a perfect setting for the picnic. I really enjoyed the walk to the picnic spot and there was plenty of time to take photos and not rushed at all. I would highly recommend this experience.
