We had the best time ever on our boat trip with Giuseppe!! Honestly could not have asked for a better skipper he showed us some AMAZING spots to swim and chill and snorkel and was so friendly and knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fun day out to see the beautiful Sicilian coast, it was the highlight of our trip :))

Guiseppe and Piera were amazing hosts. The boat was beautiful, comfortable and perfectly sized for six of us and we had a phenomenal day exploring the waters around Palermo. We were even treated to some home made limoncello and some snacks- 5 stars would highly recommend to anyone looking for a day trip. Grazie mille Guiseppe and Piera!

We had the most incredible boat trip with Paolo and Alessio. From start to finish, the service was truly exceptional and they went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. They made us feel relaxed and looked after the entire time. The boat trip itself was absolutely beautiful, but what really made it special was the hospitality. Nothing was too much trouble, and they consistently exceeded our expectations in every way. I honestly cannot recommend Paolo and his family highly enough. If you are considering booking with them, do not hesitate — it was one of the highlights of our trip and an experience we will remember for a very long time.

My wife, sister in law, and I went on this private boat experience with Nello a few weeks ago. What an unforgettable day! Nello was an exceptional captain: kind, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the Amalfi Coast’s history and culture. As a history nerd, I loved learning from someone born and raised in Vietri sul Mare. The itinerary was perfectly organised, with several stunning swimming stops along the coast, a true swimmer’s paradise. We also enjoyed lunch at a beautiful waterfront restaurant only accessible by boat, followed by time to relax on the beach. We travelled from Salerno to Positano and back, with plenty of opportunities to unwind and take in the scenery. The boat was spotless and comfortable, with thoughtful complimentary extras included. Nello also played great music and let us play our own. Whether you want a relaxing day or a lively atmosphere, this experience delivers. It was truly the highlight of our holiday. Highly recommended!

Lovely experience. Took boat for 4 hours. We took a solo boat which meant we drove it. This was nice as it was private. They offered a speaker for music but we had one. Your charged for petrol at end per Km. They track you by GPS so it's exact to what you drive. It worked out at 74 euro which I though was cheaper than expected but we did stop for a while as we found the dolphins so we watched them which was a beautiful experience. 4 hours might be a little too long for some but it was worth the experience
