Holiday in gulet - I just got back from a tour of the Aeolian islands on the gulet Gelidonia. Fantastic experience thanks to the crew composed of Commander Angelo, his wife Marilde and the hub Gabriele. All three guided us on an almost unique journey through the islands with their expertise , with the skill of the commander and with the extra cuisine (to say the least) of Marilde who delighted us with her purely Sicilian cuisine. Thank you again for your patience towards the group and for the disposition of ANGELO to any request from us at any time of the day. PETER

A super day out - What a really enjoyable day trip the minibus was well air conditioned and our guide was really friendly. Both the islands were lovely. We took the bus trip around lipari so we could see the island but the driver only commentated in Italian. However a lovely gentleman next to me translated for me. It was only 15 euros so well worth it I feel. We didn’t take the tour on Vulcano as we sat and had lunch but did see the black beach and mud baths. The ferry took us all around the island though so we didn’t miss anything. Do this if you get the chance it’s well worth it.

Very enjoyable - I really enjoyed this trip as it's very well organised abd a hassle free way to visit 2 of the islands from Taormina. It is a long day, but well worth it. Also, I wasn't expecting the ferry to show us some extra sights & caves on the way back so that was a very nice surprise.

Long day but good experience - Despite a delayed start due to an admin error, we still made the boat on time. It was a lot of travelling for one day (12 hour trip) but worth it to see Lipari (for 3 hours) & Vulcano (for 2 hours) & a scenic boat trip around the coast at the end.

Lipari and Vulcano Sept 2023 - Wonderful trip to Vulcano and Lipari! Loved the local adventure in Lipari which our guide took us on and a tour of the town and beautiful churches there. Vulcano was a smaller town but our guide led us to a local restaurant with a delicious pesto pistachio pasta! Did a little shopping or could go to the beach.

Horrible customer service! - We never made it to the tour and they had the audacity to tell us its going to be cancelled a day before and only because I asked them if everything is going be ok for the tour! They disrupted all our plans and we had to make new plans in short time for next morning. They offerred other tours which we were not interested in! Thank God we were paid back for the tour cancelled.

Awful tour - We were totally disappointed and dissatisfied with this trip. The guide was inattentive and disinterested at best. We were not given enough information at any point and struggled to know what was going on. The minibus tour of Lipari was in an old bus that leaked and with not enough seats for everyone. We felt herded around without respect or consideration. No until we arrived at Vulcano were we told the main attraction was closed. We were given no information about either island or on activities we could do.
