A day on the water with Captain Marco - Seldom have we ever had such a pleasant experience on a boating excursion. Captain Marco and his crew were fantastic hosts. They were very attentive to our needs and even asked us about dietary restrictions and drinking preferences the day before departure. They took us to Portovenere; which is truly a gem worth exploring; as much if not more than Cinque Terre. Captain Marco is a solid sailor with an absolute knowledge of the waterways and the local climate as well as the history of each and every place we visited on the boat. But the highlight of the trip for us, was being able to walk around Portovenere and explore its history and walk through the cobblestone streets which lead to so many shops and specialty food stores. Captain Marco also provided us with a wonderful lunch on the boat which consisted of an assortment of fresh homemade focaccia and local Italian cured meats and cheeses as well as fresh fruit and local olives. Our kids really enjoyed being able to swim in those beautiful waterways and Captain Marco provided them with an assortment of floaties to just sit back and relax. We wholeheartedly recommend this adventure; it was worth every penny.

Love comes in waves! - Booking this boat tour with Paola and Marco was the most wonderful experience. They are the nicest, most attentive and accommodating hosts that we could hope for. They helped me set up the most romantic and perfect scenario for my wedding proposal, and it was absolutely fantastic. Even though the weather conditions were rough, the route they planned for us was great: La Grazie, Isola Palmaria, beautiful (and underrated) Portovenere and more. Marco is the best captain around! Communication was great from start to finish; they told us the best stories and anecdotes from the different places we passed or visited. With delicious regional food and wine, good music, comfortable accommodations and beautiful views, it was a day we'll never forget.

AMAZING custom boats tours - Sunset & full day to Cinque Terre - AMAZING A++++ experience with Marco and Paola! The boat is beautiful and immaculately clean! We did 2 cruises with them where they picked us up right outside our hotel (the Grand Portovenere) sunset cruise around Palmaria Tino and then a full day visiting the Cinque Terre. They provided delicious food, wine, fruit and snacks on both trips. Paola helped me secure dinner and lunch reservations at the BEST restaurants in Porto Venere and Vernazza. We had an amazing 25th anniversary celebration with them! GRAZIE Marco and Paola!

Epic - Marco and Paola were amazing. We had 4 adults and 2 under 3 years old. They were well prepared for the journey being attentive from the outset of our chats on Whatsapp. Marco was a great captain, safe, patient and courteous. Paola was a very attentive first mate to all of our wants. She continued to explain history throughout the journey which we really enjoyed as it helped us to appreciate what we were looking at. Marco always positioned the boat for the best view and photos. The boat itself had plenty of shade, well maintained and comfortable. The trip was unforgettable and we highly recommend them. It was the best way to see Cinque Terra - from the water, but still get a stroll in the town to be a part of it all. Marco and Paola love the ocean and they love people. It made for a great experience! Thanks so much!
