Cinque Terre Sunset Boat Tour : gouden uur op het water

Definitely one of the highlights of our vacation and an amazing choice. We found Shakti through Viator and their own website, but our hotel in Levanto also recommended them, so it was a no brainer. Easy pickup in Levanto. We opted to do a private tour (for 4 people) but the boat would certainly be large enough to accommodate more with plenty of room. Linda and Francesco were excellent hosts as well as guides. As locals of Levanto, they were able to share much about the history of Cinque Terre and surroundings. They were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We throughout enjoyed chatting with them which made for a fantastic time out on the water! Amazing aperitivo with wine, prosecco, water and soft drinks as well as local meats, cheeses, and focaccia. They started serving within minutes of leaving the dock. Plenty of time for swimming with the fish as well. Absolutely no complaints.

Highly recommended experience! Lynda and Franco accompanied us along the cruise, illustrating the history of the area, its unique features, and the importance of the natural treasure of the protected park. They let us go swimming (I was able to do it too, even though I don't know how to swim, because they provide noodles to stay afloat :) ) and they offered us an excellent aperitif. Comfort, relaxation, and wonders. Thank you 💕

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A magnificent sunset experience in the Cinque Terre We loved this sunset cruise in the Cinque Terre! The small number of participants makes the experience really pleasant and friendly, far from overly touristy excursions. A big thank you to Lynda and Francesca, who took great care of us throughout the outing. The atmosphere was warm and very friendly. We particularly enjoyed the small snacks, which were varied and generous: cheeses, cold cuts, pizza, tomatoes… as well as the various appetizers offered. A real pleasure to be able to enjoy all that while admiring the magnificent landscapes! The swimming time was also very pleasant, with the possibility of using masks and pool noodles made available. The boat is comfortable and perfectly suited for this type of outing. The explanations were given in English, but that absolutely did not spoil our experience. After two days of excursions in the different villages of the Cinque Terre, this cruise beautifully completed our stay, with another way to discover the coast and its landscapes, which are particularly beautiful at sunset. There were 3 of us, two adults and a teenager, and all three of us loved this experience. ❤️ An excursion that we recommend without hesitation and that we would do again with great pleasure! 🌅⛵️

Superb walk, we had an excellent time with very friendly people, got a nice overview of each of the "Cinque Terre," a good swim, a nice little appetizer, and also a magnificent sunset.

Everything great. very friendly and familiar. Responds to customer requests.

The boat and tour were absolutely beautiful. This was a great way to see a unique view of every village and learn some history. The pier and docking point was a little difficult to find but we ended up in the right place and the tour made the initial anxiety worth it!

Shakti Cinque Terre Boat Tours provided an exceptional experience. From their detailed directions and expectations to personal VIP service aboard their beautiful boat. Communication was provided to assure everyone arrived on time. The captain maneuvered the sea with utmost confidence while sharing the history of each location. The 1st mate engaged the guests, served cold beverages and endulged us with fresh and delicious antipasta favorites. We were delighted with a stop at a quiet cove to cool off in the sea and enjoy the company of other guests. The beautiful sunset completed the magical evening. Thus was a highlight of out time in Cinque Terre

The guys from Shakti were great. They told us a lot about the area and made the trip as pleasant as possible at all times. The small snacks were very delicious and you have to try the local wine 😉. A swimming and snorkeling stop and a great sunset made this evening perfect. Thanks to the entire team!

Great tour with a super nice guide on a beautiful boat. We had a wonderful afternoon with Prosecco and delicious snacks. Many thanks

SPECTACULAR SUNSET CRUISE !!!!! We had such an AMAZING time on this sunset cruise out of Levanto. The crew were so kind, so friendly, and so informative about Cinque Terre. Our cruise took us past all 5 coastal towns and we even got to stop along the coast for a swim in the ocean. The hospitality was amazing and we were continually offered complimentary drinks including Prosecco, red or white wine, beer, soft drinks, or water. There was even a charcuterie board and pizza included. This tour is a definite “must do”. Highly recommend Shakti tours out of Levanto. Thank you for such a memorable sunset cruise !!!
