A must-do! - LOVED this experience, especially in the hot summer!! Andrea speaks great English & gave us so much insight on the towns we were seeing. We got to hop out & swim a couple of times in the VERY clear blue water!! It’s a small boat though so no bathroom just FYI ;) But seeing Cinque Terre by boat is the BEST way because the coast is beautiful!!!

Super pleasant - Very nice boat trip, with a pleasant number of participants. There were foccacia and pesto as well as drinks. The music was a bit loud at times. If you go in the evening it is recommended to bring another jacket as it can be quite fresh. All in all highly recommended.

Best day on our trip, by far! - One of the best days of our vacation! Full day on the boat with amazing views! Andrea was a fabulous host and made sure everyone was comfortable. He was incredibly knowledgeable on the history of the area. My husband is still talking about the focaccia! Would book this again in a heartbeat if we returned. You won’t be disappointed! .

Beautiful small-group boat tour of the La Spezia and Cinque Terre coast is a must! - Andre was an amazing host on his tour—explaining historical landmarks, geography and way of life. The small tour group size was personal and extremely enjoyable! The option to snorkel was unexpected and the cove was beautiful. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience the real Ligurian coast!

Cancellation without notice less than 24h - I have been cancelled twice the tour, first with the excuse of bad seas (I have seen many boats that if they did the same tour) and another without any excuse or explanation.

Terrible. Never again. Do not be fooled. - For my birthday trip I arranged for a 6 hour trip with my family where they promised “stops in Veranza, 30 minute ice cream break plus three swims in the most beautiful cove”. I brought my small children and parents on this cruise. We were surprised and disappointed that there were no life jackets for the children on board. This trip had been arranged for some time. We had to sit on the floor, no refreshment was offered (after they promised to adjust for gluten allergy-there was no food after all). The captain, Andrea, took my birthday cake and said he would keep it chilled and later handed it to me melted and in a puddle in the bag. No apologies. After one full hour of riding on the floor and wondering when we would see an amazing cove I asked what the plan was. He said we had another hour to make it to our destination. Two hours one way. We told him to cancel his “plan” and made only a stop to use the bathroom. We then requested he take us back to Lerici. He then lifted a bottle of Prosecco and asked if we wanted it. No. We wanted to get off the boat. We stayed put 4.5 of the 6 hour trip but he gladly took the full payment. It felt like a very disappointing, long water taxi trip to nowhere. The children were cold and bored. So were we. Never again. Do not be fooled.
