Seeing Taormina & Giardini Naxos coastlines from the sea is the best way to experience this beautiful place! We loved our close up view of the blue caves and even saw stunning coral formations along the rocky landscape. Our tour guide/captain Tindaro was a blast! We had so much fun with our tour companions and loved the entire trip!
Great crew and entertainment. Discovery of the coast with explanations. Stop swimming in a beautiful cove. Want to do this tour again:-)
Great tour with top guide, good music and great snack (fresh fruit, cakes and wine). I strongly advise.
Well, run tour… Totally surprised. Fun time as well as informational. Boat was in great shape, the guide and pilot were fun and kept things lively. Prosecco and fresh fruit and pizza… Who could want more? Fabulous views and great time on the water.
The tour guide was very informative and good fun. The boat was clean and we were offered generous refreshments. We really enjoyed the trip.
Lovely morning on the water with gorgeous views and flowing prosecco. We were also so appreciative that the tour operator helped us arrange transportation at a reasonable price. Thank you, Enzo and team! Highly recommend this special experience.
We had a wonderful boat ride with an amazing young man as our guide. Dinter was knowledgeable about the area and he took us to a number of sea caves where we had a close up view of the geology of the area. We also got to see Naxos and Taormina from the sea, which provided some great views. The little island was also a joy. All the while we were hearing wonderful stories and drinking Prosecco. I highly recommend this excursion.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Enzo and his team, including his charming daughter, made this boat trip one of the standout experiences of my time in Taormina. Enzo embodied the perfect Italian host—engaging, witty, and with the effortless confidence of someone who's been navigating these waters for years. His playlist was spot on, perfectly timed to enhance the mood as we passed by stunning caves, beaches, and islands. The entire crew was not only knowledgeable but also kept the energy up throughout the trip—making sure the conversation flowed just as smoothly as the Prosecco! As for the sights, you’re treated to breathtaking caves, islands, beaches, and cliffs, with ample time for swimming and snorkeling. My one tip: always jump in the water—it's stunning and so refreshing! All in all, if you're even considering this boat trip, stop thinking and book it. You won’t regret it.
This boat trip was sooooooo much fun! We had an absolute blast! Our captain was Tindaro and he was the best! The views were spectacular from the boat! The music playing was great. They served glass after glass after glass of Prosecco. We had delicious Italian foods- arancino, pizza, fresh fruits. We stopped for a swim in the gorgeous clear sea and stayed moored long enough for a dance party on the boat! We also saw many dolphins! We did a late afternoon trip and came back at sunset. Magical. We loved it and highly recommend it!
Enzo and his crew are brilliant. They are very entertaining, friendly and helpful. Beautiful scenery, blue waters and plenty of prosseco. I would highly recommend, i have a mobility issues and use a walking stick, so a bit wary of how to get on the boat. The team did not hesitate to help me on board. A great couple of hours to spend on our last day in Sicily.
