Not as advertised, pay a bit more and have a more luxe experience with drinks and actual snacks

Was a little bit disappointed in this trip because don’t feel it was fully as advertised. It was beautiful to see the caves but you were truly just driving by them and getting a tour on a VERY small cramped boat. The snacks” were crackers, there was no water and the “free drinks” was just a bottle of Prosecco. The most annoying part was there is clearly a note that says towels are included but they didn’t have that. You also don’t swim in the caves, you go out to the Bay Area and they let you jump off. For the price, I’d look for something less touristy and hope that it’s what is advertised. Only highlight was the tour guide Nicolas who was lovely.

Not worth it

Our boat captain was fine, but the tour was WAY too short (only 90 minutes), not enough sites to see, too little time in the water, and OVERPRICED…not worth it

Operator response

Dear Brian, the boat tour takes 90 minutes EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED, enough to discover the whole coastline of our little but beautiful town. A longer tour is eventually available by request but you didn't submit any request, anyway almost all people go for the standard tour taking 90 minutes. The price is appreciated by 99% of our guests as almost everyone enjoys this tour having fun for a GREAT VALUE PER MONEY.

Excellent but arrive early

The boat ride was awesome! The caves and sea are gorgeous and we absolutely loved getting to swim off the boat. It’s tricky to find the dock location for departure so leave extra time. The GPS was not working for us in the area. But you can ask where Bar Giselda is, and that will get you there!

Magnificent views from the water

Amazing! The captain Nick handles the caves and rougher waters with ease. The company arranged transportation from the cruise ship since we had older ladies with us in our group Loved the whole experience!

Caves of Polignano a mare

Many for everyone, visiting the numerous caves and bathing in one of them I consider it an unmissable experience.

Puglia region

Superb boat trip, nice surprises, like the color of the water in the caves. Then we visited the historic center of Polignano a mare on foot which also appealed to us as did Monopoli Alberobello Ostuni Bari Lecce etc..
