La Maddalena in the heart - This year was the second time. We were there last year. It is a fantastic trip not to be missed. The Colorado sailboat is the best choice. You pay a little more but there are fewer people and it's all more personal. The crew is fabulous. Especially Letizia who is very nice and sweet, always there to help.

Fantastic experience, knowledgeable staff, breathtaking views. - Excellent organization, friendly and prepared staff to better manage the people on board.
We got to see and admire some unique beauties. Center of Maddalena, Island of Spargi where we were able to see a couple of wild boars, seen the pink beach of Budelli Island, Cala Santa Maria, diving along the coast of Caprera Island and breathtaking views everywhere...
Highly Recommendation!

The Caribbean of our home! - Excursions not to be missed, wonderful places, lovely sea.The new boat, equipped, spotless, very friendly staff, efficient bar service. It is possible to have lunch on board at fair prices.
Recommended.
Recommendation is to try to sensitize tourists not to bring Neither food, nor water, because of the wild boars that circulate in Cala Santa Maria and make a stricter control at the time of descent

Well organized tour and prepared and helpful staff - We did the Maxi Tour with a visit to La Maddalena, Spargi and Capriccioli. The tour is organized very well and considering the cost it is really worth it. The staff proved to be immediately at hand, very prepared and helpful .. A thank you we must absolutely do it for Enzo, during navigation he described the peculiarities of the territory making the experience even more adventurous. Enzo number one!

Elena tour La Maddalena from Palau average trip - Made itinerary 1 trip to LaMaddalena departure from Palau. Places visited beautiful. Trip made with the family 2 adults and 2 children. The expectations reading some reviews were high. Too bad that the company did not respect the order of the scheduled stages of the itinerary, certainly would have been better, even for the weather, or we would have seen the natural pools in its glory and pink beach, while changing the order was not so. WHAT A SHAME!! Another flaw of the company to report is on the meal on board. Seating is not bookable, but if you are given the opportunity to book the meal (pasta dish) you must also communicate that you could eat with the plate between your legs or even standing. It is not nice to see people eating their own sandwich sitting at the table while those who have taken advantage of an extra service and paid to the company have to eat under the conditions indicated above. It should at least be written or communicated before choosing the meal that, for the pasta dish purchased on board is not guaranteed to be able to eat at the table. A PITY!!!
Recommendation: bring a packed lunch for lunch.
End result: sufficiency.
