Four of us enjoyed a wonderful vacation in Sicily from 3rd to 10th September 2026. This was our first time on this island. We booked a full day yacht experience with SamBoat for Saturday 5th of September, not quite knowing what to expect. The booking process was simple and enjoyable. Ettore and his team helped us in our planning and decision making - and then delivered exactly what we agreed and hoped for. We were greeted by Ettore, Matteo and Mara onto a really beautiful yacht which was impecably prepared and well equipped - the usual toys for fun in the sea, for example. They provided a very professional service from start to finish, and made the whole experience relaxed and a huge amount of fun - the three of them being kind, warm people who are clearly very experienced at what they do. We enjoyed it so much, we rebooked with them for the Monday with exactly the same experience, just a different location. I cannot recommend them enough. A truely 5 star experience.

Stromboli, Panarea and Salina are important destinations. A start from Palermo with a city tour before and after the sailing trip is recommended. The relaxed and inexpensive journey by (new) train to Capo d'Orlando is also recommended. By taxi or shuttle you would pay up to €400 per trip. By train it is only €14 per person. There are even taxis that cooperate with the port and take sailors to and from the port for €5 per person.
Stromboli, Panarea und Salina sind wichtige Ziele. Ein Start von Palermo mit Stadtbesichtigung vor und nach dem Segeltörn sind empfehlenswert. Ebenso die entspannte und günstige Anreise mit dem (neuen) Zug nach Capo d‘Orlando ist zu empfehlen. Per Taxi oder Shuttle würde man pro Fahrt bis zu 400€ zahlen. Mit der Bahn sind es nur 14€ pro Person. Es gibt sogar Taxis die mit dem Hafen kooperieren und Segler für 5€/Person dann vom und zum Hafen bringen.
