Achilles is amazing!!! Book immediately! - Achilles was an INCREDIBLE tour guide! Not only did he go above and beyond for us to make this an unforgettable experience (not to mention pausing to take photographs of everyone at the best views), but at the end of the tour he brought out limoncello that his mom has made from her lemon trees and explained how to make the limoncello. Very funny, very kind, very enjoyable experience! You won’t regret booking with them.

Boat trip along Amalfi coast - The trip was lovely. Our boat’s captain explained sights along the way, stopped many times to let us swim, and expertly handled the boat.

This is a beautiful, unique way to see the Amalfi coast and escape the heat in the sea. - We loved this experience! We booked for the middle of July and Positano is very hot in July! Having this boat day was a great escape from the heat! We stopped to swim in three different locations and the sea felt amazing! We were offered noodles to float with and goggles to look at fish! We also go to have an hour in Amalfi which was plenty of time to walk the shops, grab a lemon sorbet and see the beautiful chapel! We also stopped for lunch which was my least favorite part. I didn’t enjoy the restaurant because I didn’t feel like the service was good, it was overpriced and the food was very average. That aside, I loved our captain he was very funny and interactive and we also enjoyed getting to know the other people on our boat! We would recommend this experience to others!

Smiling from Ear to Ear! - As a tour operator, I book many times a year with Lucia and Matteo. I would never let my clients come to Amalfi without a trip with Luxury Boats Positano. It is one of the most memorable life experiences and pleasurable days you can imagine. They have boats of many sizes and all are gorgeous. So find one that fits your pocketbook and Smile, Smile, Smile!

Fun day on the Amalfi coast - Our skipper was very knowledgeable about the area. He was a lot of fun with upbeat music playing. He stopped frequently to allow us to swim as it was quite hot. Masks and beach towels were provided. We went into the town of Amalfi for an hour, which was great as it allowed for enough time to tour the church where there are some of Saint Andrew’s artifacts.

Return Positano tourist - Small group of other friendly tourist.really makes for a great crowd. From the moment we arrived at check in to getting off the boat tour this service was 5 star. I did use this company Positano Boats for the same tour 5 years ago and it was just as good then as it is now. Achilles our tour guide was fantastic in every way & very Friendly, helpful full of information and really cared that each passenger received the same wonderful treatment. His local knowledge on the area was outstanding he really made the day so very special for us. Lunch at the restaurant stop was delicious. It's companies like this and tour guides that make our trip delightful and the memories it creates forever hence my return.
Thank you

Service didn't live up to what was promised. Boat trip and views were good. - The guide was not engaged, he played nightclub music way too loud, ran out of chilled proseco, and it was difficult to hear or understand him. The boat trip itself was nice but go with a company with more experiened, enthusiastic/professional guides. View from lunch restaurant was amazing! Never saw Emerald Grotto.

Not what I expected - Started off the morning in a thunderstorm which isn’t their fault but wish they canceled for the weather. Then ended up at different restaurant and forced the group to split the bill, which is difficult when all couples have different currencies and couldn’t easily share. They book just too many people for the boat so we ended up in uncomfortable seats when the rest got to lay out in the front. Captain wasn’t really welcoming either. Felt like a bother being there. Wouldn’t recommend this or do this again.
