Come and discover the colorful villages of the Cinque Terre on this journey through sea, culture and traditions! Whether you want to spend a quiet day on the boat away from the stress of the mainland, or you want to admire the beauty of these villages in the magical light of the sunset, you just have to board, relax, and enjoy that sense of freedom that only the sea can give! And what better way to explore the Ligurian Riviera than on board my “Blue Taurus”, a traditional Ligurian gozzo, symbol of the seafaring in these waters and of the “Italian Dolcevita”; with its refined and elegant line it is the perfect boat to explore the ravines and coves of this wild coast with lush and lush nature, where among natural waterfalls and hidden caves you can dive into its crystal clear waters full of fish.

Best part of our trip

We were so pleasantly surprised - we booked this tour without knowing too much about what we were doing. It was the perfect morning on Ivan's boat. Our favorite part was the crystal clear bright blue waters he took us to and we jumped in and swam for a while. The boat was perfectly sized and roomy for our family of four. Highly recommend!

We did a morning private tour and it was a highly relaxing and beautiful experience. Ivan was knowledgeable and allowed time and space for rest and taking in the amazing sights. The snacks and prosecco were a wonderful treat after some snorkeling. Also, Ivan’s playlist was perfect! We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cinque Terre.

We really enjoyed our boat tour with Ivan. He was not rushed and played some great music! Snacks and beverages were provided. About half way through we had a chance to swim and snorkel for a bit. Great experience.

Private Boat Tour

Ivan, was a great guide! He was knowledgeable about Cinque Terre History. Very polite. Made the tour very enjoyable. We took the sunset boat tour. He even had drinks and apps for us while we enjoyed the sunset. I was with my family of 4. The boat was a perfect size. Very private and intimate. I would highly recommend.

Great once in a lifetime experience!

This was a great experience! Ivan was an amazing skipper. He showed us all of the cool places to see and even had pesto sandwiches and Prosecco for us. He was very flexible on the timing of the trip and he was easy to find at the dock. He was really nice!

Beautiful way to enjoy Lake Como!

It was a beautiful and relaxing way to spend our last full day in Italy. I highly recommend the private tour if available. The boat is really nice and clean and the skipper is very friendly and personable.

Amazing

The boat tour was incredible. You get great views on the towns from the boat and Ivan was so kind and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this experience to any one. We stopped to snorkel and I got to see many fish. This small boat tour felt more personable. 10000/10 thank you Ivan!!

Worth every penny for this private experience away from the crowds!

Such an amazing private experience touring all five towns by boat! No better way to see them than on an authentic Italian boat. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, a private swim in the turquoise waters, and seeing the beautiful towns. Our guide owns his own boat and operates privately! He was fabulous! Well worth the time and money!
