Loved it! - We rented the Giulia with skipper which can accommodate up 8 people. Booking was easy. All the staff was very courteous, both on land and at sea. The captain, Massimiliano, was very nice and provided us lots of information regarding not only the caves but the area and history. Swimming in and out of the caves was an unforgettable experience. Even those in our group who didn't want to explore the caves, enjoyed swimming in that incredible sea. We did work up an appetite and the focaccia and drinks, including some refreshing prosecco, were very much appreciated. Definitely one of the highlight of our vacation in Puglia.

Awesome - The tour was perfect. The skipper didn’t speak English but the company provided a guide in English that we were able to follow. The price was super reasonable for three hours on the boat. There were three stops to swim in the pristine water. I highly recommend this company for excursions.

Adriatic cave tour - The cave tour with captain Liugi and Simone was very nice! We had the boot for ourselves which made it even more romantic :) It was a fantastic experience to swim through the caves and even more to enter the cave of splash by a hole in the water. Ligui and Simone were most kind and although they were not speaking English very well they explained everything and we also had a laugh! We will remember this excursion!

No refund by TripAdvisor.. boat trip cancelled but money charged by tripdavisor - Very bad experience with Tripdqvisor. I am still waiting for an answer to my email. Visit cancelled due to bad weather but TripAdvisor charged me for the boat trip that did not happen, and I am waiting for my refund.. 3 emails in 4 days and still no answer and no money back I will keep chasing by email until you solve and refund me This was my first reservation. With tripadvisor and believe me that will be my last.. no consideration and no communication from client service. Appalling situation.
