My favourite was on the flowerpot island . It was amazing. Love the crystal clear water. It was a wonderful birthday gift to myself. Me and my 2 friends have a great time hiking and relaxing at the lakeshore. Beautiful weather. I would say, it’s almost perfect.

We really enjoyed our day. Our guide was fun and very personable. You had the choice to follow her on the island to see the flowerpots, caves and lighthouse station or explore on your own. We explored on our own because we enjoy taking a lot of pictures. It is a long day but there is a coffee/washroom break each way. I only wish we had more time to explore in the town before or after the boat cruise. We had time for gelato but some of the shops looked interesting. Maybe there could be an overnight option in the future that could include the grotto. I thought the restaurant choice was really good. Everyone at our table had a different meal and they all looked delicious. I would eat there again if I went back on my own. Overall, it was a great day. The weather was perfect, it wasn't crowded and everything was well organized.
