Very mediocre service provider

An excursion where we normally had audio on board in French Very few explanations from the guide who spent his time talking with an Italian person on board

A great way to see the sight from the sea.

Our skipper Roberto provided our party of 8 with superb two hour tour of the island of Oritgia (Syracuse) Very warm, humorous and knowledgeable. Complimentary prosecco provided. Would definitely recommend this company and tour. Watch out for the very low bridge at the end 😁

Excellent way to experience Ortegia

Easy to book. The 30 ft. boat, right near the Ortegia bridge, was comfortable and shaded. But the best part was the skill of captain Stefano getting us into the narrow caves and the swimming anchorages. The water was a perfect temperature and crystal clear. ..

Fantastic private boat tour!

Fantastic private boat trip. The captain was very friendly and translated everything through the audio on the boat. He even made it extra special as it was my husband’s 40th birthday. The boat was easy to locate and the experience was very special.
