Have you ever dreamed of driving a motorboat with your friends or family and speeding across the waves of Lake Garda?

Locals know that a vacation isn't complete without a day on a boat. It's the only way to access places that are otherwise inaccessible on foot, avoid the crowds, and enjoy a day of swimming, diving, and total relaxation.

At Garda Tours, we rent motorboats with or without a license.

 We've compiled the most frequently asked questions about our boat rental service, along with some useful tips to ensure your boat trip is unforgettable.

How can I rent a motorboat on Lake Garda without a license?

We offer 40 HP motorboats. These 5.6-meter motorboats are approved for seven people and are equipped with everything you need to enjoy a wonderful day on the lake.

The rental process is simple. You don't need a boat license, and insurance and civil liability are included in the price. Just leave a €300.00 deposit, which will be returned when you return the motorboat. Present your ID card and leave your phone number, and you're done!
