Lorenzo and his boat were top notch!!! - Lorenzo arrived early 😄 to pick us up. He communicated very clearly and thoroughly leading up to our experience with him, leaving no questions about our upcoming experience. He had ice cold drinks (water, soda, beer) as well as wine for us. He was great about sharing his knowledge of the Amalfi Coast with us. He found two perfectly calm spots for us to swim in the water with noodles he had on board for our use and he had beach towels for us to dry off with. There was also a freshwater hose for us to wash the sea salt/water off of ourselves once back on board. He gave us time to walk around Amalfi (town) to explore and he took us to a small, less crowded beach to have lunch. He was courteous, friendly, pleasant and knowledgeable. We chartered a similar experience a week ago in Lake Como and Lorenzo made our experience on the Amalfi Coast (Positano to Amalfi) so much more enjoyable!!! We’ve already recommended Lorenzo to our friends who are coming in a couple of weeks!

Must-do in Amalfi Coast - This was a great experience! I'd heard the best way to experience the Amalfi Coast was by boat, and that was true! We stayed in Positano for a couple days and did this on one of the days. Captain Lorenzo was great and had great communication with us along the way. He was very professional and gave us experiences we wouldn't have gotten on land. This is a must-do!

Best day in Positano!! Must do!! - This was the best day we had in Positano! Our guide, Lorenzo, messaged us the day before to confirm pick up and was punctual at the dock and easy to find. He grew up in Positano so he is super knowledgeable about the area giving us information about what is along the coast and fun facts. He stopped 3 times for us to take swims in the most beautiful areas. He even found a cool area where we could do some snorkling and see a lot of fish. He had snacks and drinks on board, as well as towels and pool noodles to float around with. He was generous and took photos when we asked. He also led us to this amazing family run restaurant for lunch which had amazing authentic italian cuisine. He said the best way to see Positano and the Amalfi coast was by the sea and we couldn't agree more! It was such a wonderful day and I highly recommend it!!

A trip you will never forget - Lorenzo, our boat captain, did a fabulous job. He is a very friendly fellow and very knowledgeable, as he grew up in the area. He is a life long fisherman and understands the water. He recommended a restaurant for lunch, which was one of our stops. It was a local place and the seafood was outstanding. He gave us an hour to shop in Amalfi, which was much fun for our grandkids, as we had been there previously. He allowed the kids to swim in areas that they loved. Our family says it's the best thing we did on our 11 day European vacation.

Stunning views and an incredible guide!! - This was the best day of our trip by a long shot. Lorenzo is kind, conversational, knowledgeable, and a fun time. He modified the trip to our liking, was flexible with our departure time changing last minute, and even helped us with positano recommendations. The snacks and beverages on board were generous, we had everything we needed and more. We really feel we have a friend in positano now. The boat was clean, large for our party of four, and had good amounts of sun and shade. Lorenzo made sure that we had time to swim, and also pointed out historical sites, hotels, and views. And the views were AMAZING. Truly breathtaking experience. We can never thank Lorenzo enough for this experience. We hope to return and visit again.

Our best day in Amalfi! - We are a family with 2 kids (16 and 12) and Lorenzo is terrific and gave us the best day in Amalfi. The boat is A++ and Lorenzo, a born and bred Positano local, treated us like a guest to his home. He answered every question knowledgeably and customised the trip to our interest. Can’t recommend him and the tour highly enough.

Fantastic private boat tour Amalfi coast from Praiano - Have to admit I was nervous about booking this but now so very glad I did!! I can’t recommend this tour highly enough- It was the highlight of our stay. Lorenzo our skipper was really friendly and gave us great information about the coastal areas we passed. He has lots of local knowledge, speaks English very well and confirmed our pickup details the day before - meeting us at La gavitella, Praiano where we were staying (at 9.30am), instead of Positano. So much easier for us . We loved cruising on such a gorgeous & comfortable boat ( shade, cushioned front deck to lie on, towels and esky of drinks, Prosecco and snacks), swimming near the emerald grotto at Conca dei Marini, even showering off on board before being taken to a beautiful local seaside restaurant (Il hippocampo)- the fish and seafood was fantastic! Not overpriced either. We cruised from Positano, down to Amalfi and spent an hour in Amalfi. Much happier to be back on board, relaxing and away from crowds! Plenty of time for photos, never rushed for time, back in Praiano at 4pm. This was a truly wonderful way to appreciate the Amalfi coast and its history - unforgettable.

Amazing Amalfi Coast boat tour! - When my husband and I planned our visit to Positano, we knew we wanted to spend one day on a boat tour. When we found Lorenzo’s tour descriptions and saw the reviews, we booked the private boat tour with drinks. This tour did not disappoint. What we really loved is Lorenzo’s knowledge of Positano and the Amalfi coast which is unique since he was born and raised in Positano and has been boating since he was a child. His passion for the Amalfi coast shines through. He brought us to a cove to swim- my husband and daughter enjoyed the swimming in the beautiful clear water and checking out a cave. He then brought us to Amalfi to check out the town and shopping. Next stop was lunch which was fantastic- the food was wonderful and the outdoor beach restaurant had a relaxing and friendly atmosphere. Lorenzo finished the tour with more great info about Positano and the Amalfi Coast. He’s very easy to talk to and seemed like he knew everyone we passed on the water. We highly recommend booking a tour with Lorenzo!

A perfect boat day! - Book this boat experience! It will not disappoint! Lorenzo is a pleasure and is very knowledgeable about the Amalfi coast. He has a beautiful, clean and spacious boat with everything you could want on board. And of course, tour of the coastline was absolutely stunning! My husband and I had the most perfect day. I would 100% recommend.
