Amazing boat ride - Corrado is an expert not only in nautical guidance but also passionate about history, he told us everything he knew about the island of Ortigia and its monuments. It was an exciting trip between sea caves and around the island. Cheerful atmosphere, aperitif and fun guaranteed... especially when crossing the last bridge!! Thanks Corrado. Unforgettable

Wonderful sunset cruise.... - Wonderful sunset cruise. The captain Michaelangelo was fantastic and the aperitif were excellent. Would highly recommend

Fantastic Evening - Excellent trip with great food and prosecco and very helpful host. It all exceeded our expectations and is highly recommened.

A brilliant boat trip around Ortigia watching the sun set... really special. - We loved this trip! The office staff were extremely friendly and spoke very good English. The 'skipper' was charming and his young son was very helpful. He popped the cork on the prosecco like a pro! We were out on the sea for ages watching the sun set and it was a real treat to see the island of Ortigia in its entirety. The food was great and very typical of Sicily. The prosecco was a good quality DOC bottle. We chatted with the skipper and another Italian couple who were on the boat with us and it was a really enjoyable experience. The skipper even ensured we got a table at a local restaurant that was a favorite of his. 10/10.

Nice way to see the island - Our guide was so lovely, we enjoyed the boat trip around Ortigia and the food was amazing, such a surprise! It took around 2 hours and we enjoyed the sun set with a prosseco

Perfect! Worth every Penny! - Amazing! It was a unique and beautiful experience. Our guide was super nice and the food delicious. Highly recommended!

Lovely sunst trip.. - Great trip...Steven was an excellent skipper...very friendly and made us all feel at ease. The antipasta was delicious....

Very relaxing with good music, tapa´s and view - The visit to the caves was´nt that spectacular (boats got in and out all the time, it gave me a very commercual vibe)but sailing with the sunset and the aperitif food was well done and very relaxing. The staff was very friendly and relaxed, the mysic on board was very nice and there was a good vibe. 👍

Pleasant, not that great - It was pleasant, but definitely not great. Reading the awesome reviews, I expected more. Actually the skipper wasn't very passionate about explaining what we saw and seemed a bit bored. The tour was mainly in Italian with most parts repeated in English. Catering was decent and the sunset view was great of course. Otherwise, not particularly fun or romantic experience. There were some drunk people from the boat agency as passengers on board and because of that the whole vibe was a bit off. Maybe it will be better if you are renting the whole boat with friends or family.

Worst Tour Ever! - My wife and I took the Ortigia Island Excursion sboat tour everal weeks ago and it was the worst tour that we have ever taken. We met the "Captain" at the boat across from Ortigia and had a tour of approximately 14 people. His name was Michelangelo, but said to call him "Miggy". He seemed cordial at first, but never really acted like he wanted to be there. His enthusiasm was non-existent. We soon departed the dock and quickly realized that Miggy was just there to drive the boat and not much else. There was never any discussion about the history of the area, the caves that we entered, or really anything else. Miggy just acted disinterested in conducting a tour and it was clear that he only wanted to get through the tour with as little effort as possible. Miggy had a couple with him that were obviously his friends. They sat in the back of the boat and they all immediately starting smoking cigarettes. I would say that between the three of them they smoked at least 30 cigarettes in the 2 hour tour. It was like they were on their own private boat and the passengers were just there taking up space. Miggy said next to nothing on the entire tour. He is not a tour guide, but just a boat driver and not a very good one at that. He was way more interested in hanging out with his friends and looking at his phone. On much of the boat tour he had his hands off the steering wheel smoking and checking his phone. There was even one occasion that he steered the boat with his feet while not even looking at the water. Once the prosecco was poured, he and his friends were more interested in drinking than they seemed interested in his passengers. His friends also could not keep their hands off of eachother, which was really weird. I counted Miggy drank at least 4 glasses of prosecco alone while he had 14 passsengers on a boat. Drinking alchohol while driving a boat is never acceptable. At one point, we stopped for a quick swim and only 2 of the passengers decided to jump in because it started to get cold out. It was a complely dangerous situation because Miggy kepy the outboard engines running even as the swimmers climbed back aboard the boat next to the running engines. As we returned to the dock and passed unter the bridge with literally 6 inches of clearance, there were no safety discussion and as a matter of fact Miggy laughed as he accelerated under the bridge which is so dangerous. In short, Miggy is a terrible guide. He told us nothing on the tour which is part of going on a tour like that in the first place. He is a terrible Captain and there were many safety issues that were violated. He drank way too much alchohol to be a safe Captain, and he compromised the safety of all of his passengers. He came in from a tour right before ours. How much did he drink during those 2 hours? I would not recommend this tour to anyone if Miggy is your Captain. If you show up and he is driiving the boat, please turn around and ask for your money back. It is a worthless tour and your safety is too important get on a boat with Miggy.
