Great hosts, great experience - Giulia and Sergio are one of the nicest people I ever met. We exchanged stories, the boatride was very relaxing. Sergio gave the passengers several options, so we could decide dor ourselves. We went for snorkeling and the sea was amazing. We also saw dolphins, as they came to the boat to socialize, but this is not a guarantee, we were very lucky to spot them and be close to them. Also, the food was of amazing quality. Giulia went out of her way to prepare appetizers and a pasta based on local biological ingredients. Thank you so much for the amazing experience and the nice conversations!

Amazing crew and day! - Amazing time! Highly recommend! Giulia and the Captain were incredible hosts!! There were only 6 of us on this tour in June 2023, which was perfect. Also had a good time in September 2023 when I went solo and there were 10 or 12 folks. - From June 2023 and September 2023

Overall very enjoyable but with some risk. - Overall very enjoyable. Guests just 3 of us. Crew of 2 very personable, and we had a lot of good discussion. Lunch served was very good. Cruised along the coast line which was nice. However, there was no wind, so entire cruise was with motor, which in a sailboat, toward the end gets a little boring. So this is a typical risk if you definitely want to go sailing. Made 2 stops at which you could swim off the boat. Also, description of cruise was for up to 10 persons. However, this is a sailboat of about 43 feet, and, I think having more than 6 guests outside of cabin would be crowded. So another risk.
