Excellent boat trip to the caves
The landscapes and the sea of Castro are a wonder to behold. The tour was perfect: there were 3 couples, the guide showed us and explained the most important and evocative spots of Castro and the coastline, and the aperitif on board was a super appreciated treat after diving into the sea. Really excellent value for money. We thank the Noleggio Fortunato service again, and especially Mr. Giuseppe, who drove the boat and gave us smiles. Long live Salento, a territory to love (and also the “Palermo region,” Mr. Giuseppe will understand!).
Fantastic experience, Mattia was very good, professional and super nice. Fabulous boat trip where all the caves of Castro and the surrounding area were shown to us with a very accurate historical description. A must-do at least once in a lifetime.
Top experience, the guide Giuseppe was super kind and helpful. The aperitif on board was a magnificent discovery.
A fantastic and unforgettable experience, the presence of Captain Mattia certainly contributed, who with his friendliness and professionalism made everything even more unique.
A lovely two hour tour with views of many spectacular caves and two stops to swim. Would definetaly recomend for anyone in the area! Would advicd to go with company with smaller boats (this was maximum 12 pax) as you can then enter some caves. No Engligh guiding, but got some reading material an captain always told us what to read next. Bring your own snorkelling equipment if you have it, didn't see any of that on the boat (but also did not ask).
Fantastic two-hour excursion with the very kind and highly knowledgeable skipper Riccardo, it was truly beautiful, thank you very much.
Great tour! Our captain was great and the boat was nice! It was the perfect time with 5 young kids and 7 adults
Simply fantastic experience! Mattia was a very kind, helpful, and very knowledgeable guy. He accompanied us to discover all the caves, explaining their history and many curiosities with passion, making the tour truly interesting. During the excursion, he had us make several stops at the most beautiful spots, giving us time to swim in crystal-clear waters and enjoy the sea calmly. To end on a high note, he also offered us an excellent aperitif on the boat, which made the experience even more special. You can see that he loves his job and manages to transmit this passion to anyone who comes on board. We recommend this excursion to everyone, it was an unforgettable day. Thank you from the heart, Mattia!
Absolutely fantastic experience! The boat trip along the coast of Castro was wonderful. The caves are spectacular and the crystal-clear sea makes this place truly unique. The stop to swim in the clear waters was also an unforgettable moment. The prosecco and the delicious aperitif on board made the experience even more pleasant and relaxing. A special thanks to Mattia, our guide. He was truly exceptional: professional, kind, friendly, and always available. He made the trip even more interesting with his explanations and created a pleasant atmosphere throughout the tour. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover the splendid coast of Salento from the sea. We will definitely be back!
