A Top Experience! - This is a must do event for your trip! The crew was so kind and were so fun to give us a great history background of the area. The food was amazing and who doesn’t love a private tour from a local?! We were treated like queens and enjoyed our evening so much.

Highlight of our Italy trip! - We were a group of 4 couples that had the most amazing private boat tour. They provided the perfect balance of a guided tour with information about the gorgeous surroundings, and a relaxed day on the water with friends. The lunch on the boat with fresh oysters, local meats and cheeses, fruits, and dessert was spectacular. This trip was one of the highlights of our Italian vacation!!

Top boat, professionalism, kindness, wonderful places, delicacies! - I booked a private tour with Diego and Silvia to celebrate my birthday with the family: all day in the Gulf of Poets with the Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto Islands. Wonderful experience, wonderful coves where we dived and had fun with crazy water. Diego, the commander, Professional, Expert, very nice, Silvia very kind and attentive; he immediately established a great relationship to spend the day together! Great lunch, with Ligurian specialties and unforgettable mussels with stuffed muscles prepared by the commander's mother. Wine, soft drinks and water available, we also prepared all the towels for the day! The "Juliet", really top boat! Masks, goggles and tubes available to guests. Kindness, courtesy, a wonderful birthday! See you next year!

HIGHLIGHT OF THE TRIP!!! - We originally booked a private afternoon tour for Cinque Terre, however due to weather we were offered an alternative itinerary on another day aboard Guilietta. Silvia was in constant communication with us about the schedule and overly accommodating given the weather. The weather situation really was a blessing in disguise - we had the absolute best time and the Gulf of Poets tour was the highlight of our trip. Diego and Nimue were wonderful and made our trip so memorable, giving us information and history about the area as we were underway. Stopping for snacks and a swim rounded out a perfect day. The boat was amazing, very clean and very comfortable. I can’t recommend a tour with Silvia and Diego enough, it was amazing!

Highly recommend! - Highly recommend! We had the best day touring around and the most amazing lunch. Conditions were rough in Cinque Terra and they proactively resched out to offer the same experience in a calmer part of the water. We had the best day!

Most fun day ever - Our family of 5 (3 adult sons) had the most wonderful time on our boat tour of Cinque Terre. The captain and crew member were very attentive, gave us lots of information/history of the area and kept us entertained. They took us to an area to snorkel and see lots of marine life and swim into a cave. Wr had the most fantastic lunch prepared for us and enjoyed lots of good wine and beer during the trip. Highlight of our time in Cinque Terre. Highly recommend. Most fun day ever!
