Pietro was super helpful before we hired the boat, providing lots of information. They advised us well on using the boat, and what to visit on the Aeolian Islands too. We had a great trip! The boat itself was in v good condition too

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.
