Full Day Palermo Boat Tour with Palermo Experiences

I booked the boat for my husband’s bday. We rented it for 4 hours. The tour was amazing from beginning to end. Crew was super friendly and trying to make the best out of it. Angela got my husband a italian cake that was delicious and we could celebrate if. We bought drinks on board and the did not explore us on that, but there was an aperitif each wich wss delicious! I totally recommend! Next time we will go spend full day!

Fantastic experience and would highly recommend! This tour company is family run & owned and it shows. They took care of every detail and made sure, throughout the day, that everyone was enjoying themselves. Great food and drinks, too. Really could not have asked for anything more, would book with them again.

A very good time with good people. Enjoy the sea of Palermo knowing you will be completely relaxed and enjoy every minute.

A full-day boat tour of Palermo is an unforgettable experience. Sailing along the stunning Sicilian coast, you'll admire crystal-clear waters, secluded bays, and breathtaking views. The boat offers comfort and ideal spaces for relaxing in the sun or shade. Stops for swimming and snorkeling in secluded coves make the experience even more captivating. The crew is friendly and professional, ready to share interesting facts about local history and culture. Lunch is often served on board, featuring fresh and flavorful Sicilian specialties. A perfect activity for those who love the sea and want to discover Palermo from a unique perspective.

We booked this boat trip in Palermo about a month in advance as a birthday surprise for my boyfriend, and were really looking forward to it. A deposit was even paid upfront to secure the booking, so we had every reason to believe it was all confirmed and good to go. The instructions were to arrive at the port 15 minutes before departure, which we did. We waited around with no update, only to receive a phone call five minutes after the scheduled start time saying the trip was cancelled due to “choppy seas.” The issue? The weather was perfect – sunny, calm, no wind – and there were plenty of other boats out on the water. It honestly felt like they hadn’t sold enough spots and decided to cancel last-minute, which is completely unacceptable. To make things worse, there was zero communication ahead of time. No text, no email, no call — we were just left standing there on the dock until someone eventually rang. Really disappointing, especially when it was meant to be a special surprise on a birthday. If your time matters and you expect even the most basic level of professionalism, I’d strongly recommend booking with someone else.

This was the highlight of our trip to Palermo! Angela and her son were so nice and welcoming upon arrival! We were with one other lovely couple on the boat and had an amazing day on the water! I will never forgert the refreshing swims in the Mediterranean water, the incredible views and the spectacular hospitality. Angela prepared some amazing traditional Sicilian cuisine for us to enjoy throughout the day and had fresh water ready whenever someone looked a little parched. What an operation! Hats off to the family run Palermo Experiences for putting together such an incredible day. Well worth the money and a great way to escape the crowds and heat of the city. Next time I come back I will be booking this trip again!

We had an amazing trip. The attention to detail was amazing and the team went out of their way to make sure we had a great day. Highlight for me were the freshly made cannoli on board. Make sure you go hungry. There is so much food.

This was such a fantastic experience. My wife and our three nieces ( ages 25, 18 and 17) booked this experience directly through the Palermo Experiences website. Of our 10 day Italian trip, it was our favorite day. The evening prior they send you a text with an easy to follow video showing you how to get to the meeting point. Angela then met us right on time. She and Luca were the ultimate hosts. In total we were 8 people along with a solo traveler and a young couple on their honeymoon. Plenty of space to spread out. We made four stops where we had opportunity to snorkel or use the underwater scooter. Or just drift on a noodle. Angela and Luca fed us several times and drinks were plentiful. Everything was delicious. In the end we were surprised with a celebratory bottle of wine to commemorate our 24th wedding anniversary. Such a lovely day and lovely company. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Went out on a full day of fun and swimming in the most amazing blue waters, celebrating my daughter’s birthday. The four of us girls had the most amazing time and were lucky enough to be the only ones on the boat! The hosts were everything we could have asked for, so generous of themselves and shared some great laughs with us. Delicious Aperol Spritz, street food, lunch finished off with an aperitif and cannoli. Four stops for swimming and fun in the clearest of waters, I would highly recommend this trip, it was the highlight of my daughter’s trip to Palermo.

Excellent swimming, views, food, wine. Angela the skipper is very kind and caring. The spots she took us to are beautiful. Highly recommend
