They did not have our safety in mind

We had reservations to go out on the 12th all day but there were severe thunderstorm warnings for the afternoon. We would’ve been out in the deep sea and it was already white capping along the coast. Our hotel water taxi refused to take out their boat and other guests had their boat excursions cancelled but Sail & Fun refused to cancel our excursion plus refused to refund us our money. We took our own safety in our own hands and refused to go out. Then we get an email the next day saying it was a pleasure to spend the day w/ us and ask us to share our experience. So here I am sharing, it was not a great experience!

Operator response

Hello Jody, so sorry to read all these lies because we did not accept your request to cancel 5 minutes before boarding, with the boat waiting for you in front of your hotel's private dock (so water taxi also is a lie). On that day we had all our 107 boats our around the coast, and, of course, hundreds other from other companies. Moreover weather bullettin can be checked even now and everyone can see that on September 12th 2024 sea and sky was great. Let me say that the not a great experience was from our side.

Scam

An absolute horrible experience. What was promised was not delivered. Trip was cancelled yet others on the island were offering a very similar trip. Do not use this company

Operator response

Hello Sheridan, so sad you did not use your real name. Anyway we cancelled the tour because the storm and, of course refunded 100% Not fair, or at least, quite stupid to say "Scam" for something you did not loose any cent. Hope you'll release less stupid reviews in the future, even if i see this is your first 🤦‍♂️

Wonderful afternoon and sunset cruising the Amalfi coast

With a full group we thought it was well worth it! Davide and Fabio picked us up at Amalfi dock in their trim and clean boat. We cruised to Capri, where you have to pay both an entrance fee to blue grotto and "tip" a boatman to row you in. They helped us find one that wasn't overpriced or a scam. We enjoyed that and the cruise around Capri. There were swimming spots but the kids decided not to partake. Since we had extra time due to no swimming, they offered to cruise close to Positano for photos but we had already been there.Then on to various sights, Lover's Arch where Davide serenaded us, then to Isole Li Galli to enjoy prosecco, cichetti like snacks, more music, enjoyed the sunset and the kids fed the fish and dipped their feet. Then a scenic dusk back to Amalfi. Really great time, so friendly and just a perfect way to cap off our tour of Italy. 10/10 would recommend! Thanks Captain Davide and Fabio!
