AMAZING TRIP - Thanks to Giampero, the experience has been amazing. A tour of the best beaches, the day was not the best, but he has recommended us where there was less wind. All that accompanied by a good appetizer and a pasta dish made at the moment. A great recommended experience! Good price quality!

Best boat tour in La Maddalena - Would 100% recommend this boat trip. It was a nice & small group on a comfortable & spacious boat, unlike lots of the other larger boat tours. The destinations were beautiful & we had lots of flexibility in terms of how long we wanted to stay at each. On top of this, Giampiero, the captain & tour guide is an absolute hero. He whipped up a lovely lunch (pasta with prawns), as well as providing nibbles, booze & fruit/cake. He was knowledgeable, funny & had lots of great stories to tell. This tour is great value for money & I can’t recommend it enough.

Recommended! - We had an amazing tour yesterday! The boat is fantastic and the captain/guide is super friendly and knowledgeable. The included food (lunch, snacks) and drinks make this absolutely value for money. The tour is with a small group, which makes this tour very special We can definitely recommend going!

Explore Sardinia paradise like a local! - We had a wonderful day. Gianpiero and Antonella were amazing hosts. They served a great and very local aperitivo before lunch, we had great pasta for lunch and coffee and cake afterwards. We spent more than an hour in each stop we made, there was plenty of time to relax and enjoy the experience. The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because due to weather conditions we couldn’t do Isola Spargi, Budelli and Santa Maria, which is basically what I paid for, so that was a bit disappointing but it was no one’s fault. Instead we explored Isola di Stefano and Caprera Island which were amazing as well. The other small complaint I have is that I went through an awkward moment when Gianpiero claimed he did not receive my payment when I could actually see the charge on my card and got the confirmation email. He made me call customer service and made me waste valuable time of the excursion when at the end it was because he had the wrong confirmation number. He should be more careful with these things for next time. Despite that, I had an amazing day and would definitely recommend this activity!

Fantastic and enjoyable trip - Wonderful sailing boat experience, and excellent captain Giampiero with great sense of humor and site experience. I gave one star less because I felt misinformed about the trip, in the description it is mentioned "Private tour", but when we arrived to the boat we found other four people sharing the trip with us and we were never told about them, although their company was pleasant and enjoyable, but that does not cancel the fact that it was not a private tour as mentioned in the trip description. One advise to anyone departing from Palau port by car, be there at least one hour in advance, finding parking is very lengthy and tiring process.

A broken dream. - Despite having booked the tour a month and a half in advance, three days earlier we are informed that it is cancelled and refunded for bad weather. There was no bad weather that day. Without the possibility to make the excursion with another company when everything is booked. Feedback from locals, where it is usual for you to cancel the cheapest previous bookings, changing them to more expensive last minute sales. A broken dream on a wonderful holiday in Sardinia. Excuse me for coming back, but obviously not with Vale Boat Travel.

A real rip-off - I think it would have been a wonderful experience, except that an hour before this is deleted without explanation and the person who first answered, turns off the phone. In short, we found ourselves in 5 on foot Saturday morning, noting among other things that the The price of the experience was suddenly raised.
