BEST AMALFI COAST EXPERIENCE! - The most fun and best experience of our stay in the Amalfi coast really was the boat tour. We had soooo much fun. The whole tour was based upon our own preferences. We could swim and snorkel whenever we wanted. We could see and go to places we wanted to see. We literally saw everything we wanted on our list. The owner last moment changed our tour date upon our wish, because the date we booked it the weather was not so good. She really put her efforts in it to make it happen. Our skipper and tour guide was Salvatore, he is literally the best guide we ever had. He was soo relaxed, not minding about the end time of the tour, and he showed us even more than the places we had on our list. He really made us so comfortable and welcome on his boat. I really recommend you booking your private tour here!

Just a Dream and the Wind to Carry Me - A tour by private boat from Positano to Capri was THE perfect way to spend my milestone birthday. Our captain, Michele (Michael), was fantastic! He was prompt, professional and highly skilled on the water. He gave us ample insight into the places we were visiting and expertly navigated us into tiny little coves that we would not have otherwise seen on the huge tourist vessels. The boat was immaculate and well stocked with snacks and beverages of both the leaded and unleaded varieties. Prosecco? Sure, don't mind if I do.

Breathtaking - One of our favorite parts of our trip all through Italy! Communication was fabulous with exclusive cruises and our captain was great as well. We chose to do the Amalfi coast tour rather than spending the day in capri and while it was all beautiful I wish we could have seen some grottos! If you chose to do the amalfi coast option just know there will be 3-4 swim spots but you won’t get to see the grottos as advertised. Regardless, we still loved our tour and will definitely be doing one again if we come back! We stopped for lunch at a delicious ocean front restaurant only accessible by boat and also were given complimentary Prosecco and snacks. No need to bring towels etc, everything is provided for you! Definitely would recommend to anyone :)

Fun and special private boat tour! - We had such a wonderful and special time on this trip. Francesco and as our skipper and he couldn’t have been better. He showed us wonderful landmarks all along the amalfi coast. He took plenty of pictures for us. I also appreciated all the special private swims. Definitely a special way to see Amalfi and I’d highly recommend it for anyone looking to experience the area in an intimate and unique setting.

Wonderful finish to our vacation! - Sergio was very safe captain with some rough seas in the morning. He made us feel very safe. He took us to many interesting spots along the Amalfi coast and allowed us to swim and snorkel along the coast of Capri. The scenery was amazing and it was a wonderful finish to our long vacation in Italy.

Perfect Day - Our cruise with Renato was wonderful! He was very friendly and knowledgeable sharing interesting facts about different sights along the Amalfi Coast. Exclusive Cruises sent detailed instructions ahead of time regarding what to expect. Their communication ahead of the cruise ensured that the day went smoothly. They also made lunch reservations for our restaurant of choice. Additionally, they gave us valuable advice regarding the tour. We had a blast! I would highly recommend Renato and Exclusive Cruises without hesitation.

Enjoyable private day cruise along the Amalfi Coast - Valeria and Lucia of Exclusive Cruises put together a wonderful day cruise of the Amalfi Coast. Both were extremely communicative in the days leading up to the cruise and helped us make some important final decisions like whether to do the lengthy cruise to Capri and back (we were staying in Amalfi) or to cruise along the Amalfi coastline. To get the most out of the day we chose the latter and it was an amazing day. Andrea our skipper was fantastic. Being from the area he was extremely knowledgeable and his narration of the main points and places of interest along the coast to Positano, his suggestions of where to stop and swim, the emerald grotto etc plus our stop for lunch at a restaurant only accessible by water (suggested by Valeria and Lucia) were all excellent. It was just a perfect relaxing day spent on the water interspersed with good food and wine (Prosecco served on board!). We highly recommend them to you.
