Good for beginners, guide was very patient and noticed quickly when we were getting tired or needed a break. Perfect amount of time and distance for beginners. He took lots of pictures and videos for us. It was all a great experience we would swim and snorkel in some areas and he pushed us to try new things like kayak between rocky areas. Had a good break with espresso and a snack. Guide was extremely nice with us.

Forio kayaking with Savage Ischia
I thoroughly enjoyed this kayak trip from Forio with Alessandro who is passionate about kayaking. The group were well trained before going out onto the water and we then went around the coast to the lighthouse. Alessandro was able to talk about the history and geology of the area. Recommended!!

An absolutely Incredible Experience
I booked onto the kayak experience and it was the best few hours. After some skills and techniques we went out on the water. It was absolutely idyllic. The whole experience was perfect and Alessandro is a such a cool guy. This was an amazing experience in a stunning location. I would 100% recommend.

We didn’t kayak in the end because the water was too rough. Our guide pivoted well and gave us a different experience involving hiking to her favorite bay for a swim. She then dropped us off to another bay for a swim in a geothermal water which was hot. Our kids loved the hike and swim.

Great experience of another side of Ischia
We had a great time. Alessandro was a wonderful guide, knowledgable, warm and relaxed. One of us had some minor physical limitations which he was patient and supportive about. It was a beautiful way to experience another part of Ischia, I highly recommend!

Great experience
Our experience on the water was phenomenal, and our guide was kind and took incredible pictures! 4 stars because our guide arrived an hour late. But, it was an uncontrollable situation, just a lot of wasted time for us. He did make sure we had all 3 hours of our excursion though! Was great with pointers on how to best use energy while kayaking, and was funny! We really loved the excursion
