10/10

Published on Aug, 2024

We had the best time on our trip with Natale! He was sweet and hospitable, making sure we had plenty of time to relax and swim. Probably one of my favorite parts of our trip. While it’s a tad more expensive than group boat trips, I would say it’s well worth it. Between the space, the lack of having to jockey for seats, and the freedom to work with your skipper on timing of swimming and relaxing, the private tour surpassed our expectations. 10/10 experience!

Had the most amazing trip! Our skipper, Mario was so fun, took us to the most beautiful places, and let us decide how we wanted to spend the tour. It was an amazing way to see Ortigia and the area!

Best Boat Tour with an awesome Skipper

Published on Sep, 2023

This was the best tour we had ever been on! Sebastiano was an amazing skipper, tour guide and expert of the area. He was friendly, kind and provided us with much history of the land. We had an amazing time swimming at different stops and saw flamingos! He even recommended a lunch spot that was delicious. I can’t recommend this tour enough - Book it!
