See Palermo by sea - Great trip with planned stops, good food and refreshments. Nice group of people on sunset cruise and easy to chat with everyone. Angela the captain and host took time to stop for photos, ensured everyone that wanted to swim had the equipment they needed. Really nice spread of Italian snacks. Weather was perfect, lovely evening on board.

Great time - Me, my wife and another couple took the sunset cruise. It was very nice and relaxing, took us out to one of the caves and explained the history of it, anchored out and allowed us to swim if we wanted, the food was delicious and views were incredible. Angels was a great host.

Good people and brilliant photo opportunities! - I have done several "sunset boat tours" in different European cities, but this is my favourite! The crew make you feel very welcome, and will help you to get beautiful pictures of your trip. Also, the "snack" is so generous that you won't want dinner afterwards! If you are in Palermo, you should definitely make time for this tour.

perfect for a romantic proposal - perfect if you plan on proposing to your girlfriend. the skipper is also a bit of a love guru ;) asked if there was a special song we wanted played when I proposed, and took some great photos. also spoke decent enough English so that communicating wasn’t an issue, and so that he could cater to our needs. the food was more than enough and very tasty, and the water equipment was more than adequate. was also nice to see that it was a family operated business! thanks guys, we might see you in the future but with a couple of extra kids! Regards Alex & Angelica

Sunset boat trip - Great experience, the crew were brilliant. Food and drink served was excellent. We were provided with water activity equipment. The crew took photos of us and gave us each a photo copy of our picture which was a lovely touch. I would highly recommend.
