Amazing Amalfi Coast Experience with the Legendary Francesco
My wife and I decided that our biggest vacation investment on the Amalfi Coast would be a one-day private boat cruise with Exclusive Cruises. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! We cannot say enough about how incredible our experience was. First off, the communication in booking this was seamless. I was in regular contact with Flora and Valeria via email and WhatsApp when planning the day, as well as right before the date of sailing. So communication was excellent. They also wanted to know my goals (which was mainly photography and "beating the crowd"), so they suggested we even start an hour earlier to give us a better experience.
On the day of the sailing, we were met promptly on the dock in Positano by our Commander, Mr. Francesco! He was an absolutely AMAZING host for the day. Francesco is a local and has spent most of his life on the Amalfi Coast and his whole life "at sea". Francesco provided so many pearls all along the coast as we worked from Positano East along the shore. He also provided some Prosecco and fresh fruits along our journey. Nice touch. We saw many caves, learned lots of history, and had so many laughs I could never count them all. Francesco is HILARIOUS! He also had an AMAZING playlist on the stereo system that provided songs we could all sing along to. We had SO MUCH FUN and it was definitely unforgettable. This was easily one of our top vacation memories of our lives and we have traveled to almost 60 countries.
Lastly, Francesco booked us a reservation for lunch at La Tonnarella. It was absolutely incredible. I would go again and again and again. It was so good it was featured in a New York Times reel just a few days after we dined there. So this was another great element to the day.
We very highly recommend you choose Exclusive Cruises for an amazing day on the Amalfi Coast! Ask for Francesco and hopefully he will be available. He is legendary! Have fun and tell them HELLO from us!

The best tour to take in all of the sights of the Amalfi Coast.
This day was exceptional from beginning to end. Our Captain, Francesco called to ensure our meeting point and was timely. He was friendly, knowledgeable and engaging for the entire 6 hour tour of the coast. He shared the history and took us to places that were unique and breathtaking. The tour was worth every penny. It was the absolutely best way to experience the Amalfi Coast.

Amalfi Coast tour
Great experience. Great Captain. Champaign was a very nice touch. Captain did a good job telling us about what we were looking at. And the place he took us for lunch was magnificent. The only thing needed as an older couple was a couple of extra restroom breaks. But overall great tour.

THE BEST DAY EVER
We had the best time ever! Our driver Umberto was absolutely perfect, he showed us the best swimming spots, took photos, prepared us drinks, and told us fun facts! He was an absolute pleasure to meet and spend the day with. The boat was so comfortable and nice. Will be booking again when I come back!

Must do
Easy company to deal with and are very organised. Our booking was delayed due to weather but it was able to be pushed back a couple hours with timely warning. We were taken along the coast to many different areas and had a great lunch at a recommended restaurant. We also stopped at a couple of different areas for a swim. Andrea was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Would definitely recommend

Great day in the boat
Had a great day with Luigi as our skipper. He took us to all the places along the coast and showed us different places to swim, with caves and cliff dives. Was attentive and offered us drinks, let us play music and got our towels. Would recommend.

Captain Luigi King of the Coast
We’ve taken a lot of tours in a lot of different places and this was hands down the most fun, relaxing and informative. Skipper Luigi was prompt in and courteous throughout the day, making us feel like friends along our coastal journey. He made stops and spoke knowledgeably at spots only locals knew. He brought to hidden beaches, caves; all with the opportunity to jump in the water for relief from the Italian heat. Amenities and his attention to detail made for an amazing worry free day. We even were picked up by a water taxi to bring us to lunch at a hidden gem. 10/10 would do again. Thank you for the memories Captain Luigi!

Perfection!
We had an amazing day with our skipper, Francesco aboard “Again”. It was a perfect day. Francesco provided us with wonderful explanations of our locations and the history. He was wonderful with my two daughters, ages 13 and 11 and treated us like family. We had a lovely lunch at La Tonnarella, which was also perfect. It was one of the BEST days! Thank you!

Amazing day with Luigi
Luigi was on time, and easy to find just off the dock. He took us on a coastal tour of the Amalfi Coast from Sorrento to Maiori with several stops in between, explaining some of the coastal history. Swimming on a beach and in caves, cliff diving, and lunch at a beach club along the way. Luigi was great conversation, attentive, and quick to offer us refreshments when we were running low. Great way to spend a day, highly recommend.
