Our day on the water with Captain Brian was truly the highlight of our time on the Ligurian Coast. From the moment we stepped aboard, everything was perfect. His boat was immaculate and thoughtfully stocked with water, towels, and everything we needed for a relaxing day. Captain Brian was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the coastline. He shared fascinating stories about the area, pointed out beautiful villas and historic landmarks, and made the entire trip both fun and informative. He was right on time, never rushed us, and even gave us an extra half hour so we could enjoy more swimming and snorkeling. We spent the afternoon swimming in crystal-clear water, snorkeling, enjoying wine and delicious Caprese sandwiches, and taking in some of the most beautiful scenery imaginable. It felt like spending the day with a good friend who loves sharing his home with others. If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience on the Ligurian Coast, I can’t recommend Captain Brian highly enough. Five stars all the way!
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart! Reading your words truly makes my day. It was an absolute pleasure having you on board and showing you the beauty of our Ligurian Coast. For me, this isn't just a job, it’s a passion to share this paradise with special guests like you. You are always welcome back on board! Warmest regards, Captain Brian
Brian was amazing! A better boat experience than we had in Positano, Como, Belliago, and Capri hands down! The boat was amazing! The water /sea was absolutely gorgeous! You can tell he loves what he does and fave a great tour of all the sites! So royal blue but crystal clear! He took the time with my 2 and 4 year old and I’m so forced grateful! Should be a 10/10!
Wow, what an incredible compliment! Hearing that your experience with us topped your trips to Positano, Como, and Capri means the world to me. I truly love what I do, and sharing the magic of our coastline with guests like you is the best part of the job. Thank you for noticing the blue waters and the care put into the tour. Hope to see you and your beautiful family again! Best regards, Captain Brian.
Brian was phenomenal - fun, friendly, knowledgeable and unhurried in all we did. Ge was so kind to our kids as well, who had a blast using his scuba gear to dive near San Fruttuoso. We talked the whole time with him about life in Italy, family, and he recommended a variety of great things to do along all the coastal towns here. Can’t recommend The Green Boat highly enough. It was the highlight of our trip!
Davide thank you so much for your kind words. It was a real pleasure to have you and your wonderful family on board with me! A presto, Brian.

I highly recommend Captain Brian. Our boat day was the highlight of our time on the Ligurian coast.

What an amazing day on Captain Brian’s boat! Michaela was excellent at communicating with us at all times. The boat was clean, well kept and well stocked with water, prosecco, snacks, towels and snorkelling equipment. Brian was so welcoming and very informative about the boat and area. The views were amazing. We loved stopping for a swim and having lunch in Portofino. What a welcome, relaxing change from all the crowded, fast paced tours out there. You won’t be disappointed!
Ciao Michelle! I can't thank you enough for your kind words. It has been an absolute pleasure to have you all on board of Green Boat. Next time you come there will be the t-shirts for you :-)!!!
We had a great experience on the Green Boat with Captain Brian. He took us to all of the towns and villages along the Portofino Coast and we had an opportunity to swim and snorkel in multiple spots. The boat is in excellent condition and was perfect for a family of six although could comfortably accommodate more people. Brian is a local (from Santa Margherita Ligure) and has great perspectives to share about the area. He owns the charter company and the boat and takes great pride in providing a first-class experience. Would highly recommend.
It was a great pleasure to have you and your family on board with me. Your kind words are really precious for me! Grazie mille!!!
Brian was a fabulous skipper & tour guide! Absolutely amazing afternoon on the boat! The views were phenomenal, the boat was incredibly comfortable, and clean. Brian went the extra mile and had bottles of cold water, fresh towels, and snorkeling masks. Every detail was thought out and he had lots of interesting details about each place we visited. Thank you for an unforgettable day!
Thank you so much for your kind words Elise! It was an absolute pleasure to have you and your family on board on Green Boat! See you soon
Brian was great and the boat was great. He was fun and knowledgeable. Totally worth it. Take your friends and family. See the coastline from the sea.
Ciao Deborah, thank you soooo much!!!!
We had an amazing time! The boat was the perfect size for our family of 5 (with adult kids). Brian was a fantastic captain showing us points of interest and finding the good swim spots. These towns are so charming and the perfect backdrop for a swim in the sea. One of our favorite experiences!
Grazie Camille! Such a great pleasure to have you and your family on board with us! we hope to see you soon again!
How could we ever have known how fantastic this would be?? Brian is a remarkable skipper and guide, for starters, but something special happens when you’re out on The Green Boat on the Ligurian Sea. Wow. We’ll never forget our tour of the Portofino Peninsula. Ever. That’s how great our afternoon was. Thanks to Brian for everything. 😃🇮🇹♥️🎶
Dear Sharon, I can't thank you enough for your kind words. It has been an absolute pleasure to have you all on board of Green Boat. Grazie , grazie , grazie!!!
