Isola Bella Boat Trip

Only some 400 yards away from Stresa is the Isola Bella, the most beautiful of the Borromean family Islands. This ticket lets you board the boat and sail along the idyllic waters of Lake Maggiore until you reach your destination after just 10 minutes.

Once on Bella Island, you can spend as much time as you like exploring every hidden corner and discovering exactly why it was given this unique name. No trip would be complete without visiting the magnificent Palazzo Borromeo palace and its impressive fairy-tale gardens.

Times and frequency

The tourist boat sails from March to November every day approximately every 30 minutes from 10:45 am to 6 pm. Please be aware that these timetables are flexible and subject to change.

How does it work?

The pass allows you to use the boat that sails from Stresa to Bella island, as many times as you want during the operational schedule, for one full day.

Ho prenotato il battello per visitare Isola Bella e mi sono trovata molto bene!! L’unica cosa che non mi è piaciuta è stata la mancanza dell’orario preciso delle partenze. Dicono che il battello parte ogni mezz’ora andata e ritorno ed e comodo come servizio, però non specificano mezz’ora a partire da quale orario e dovrebbero indicarlo secondo me. Per il resto è stata un esperienza molto positiva!! Translate this opinion into English.

I booked the boat to visit Isola Bella and I found myself very well !! The only thing I didn't like was the lack of the precise departure times. They say that the boat leaves every half hour round trip and is comfortable as a service, however they do not specify half an hour from what time and they should indicate it in my opinion. For the rest it was a very positive experience !! Opinion translated. Show original.
