It was a wonderful... - It was a wonderful experience! Our two guides were so knowledgeable and friendly. They not only provided detailed information about Sardinia, they also answered all the questions we had. We were even treated to some local wine and bread! It was truly a lovely time.

Wonderful experience - Super relaxed and informative boat tour. We were the only guests on the boat and enjoyed the trip very much. The stop at the lighthouse is beautiful!
The two gentlemen (helmsman and guide) were so nice and entertaining! We can recommend the boat trip 100%!

Gulf of Olbia - Luciano and Italo are very nice. They know the gulf and its history very well. The aperitif on the lighthouse island was great!

Excellent tour - We took the trip on Sat 14th Sept towards the end of our holiday in Sardinia. The trip was excellent and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about current and past day to day life in the Gulf of Olbia. Luciano and his colleague were very informative, chatting and giving their commentary in a number of different languages. The tour also included a stop at the lighthouse

100% recommend! - I recommend this trip so much and will definitely do it again if I return to Olbia! Such good value for money, the guide was lovely and we learned a lot.
The boat had 16(?) seats in total, however there was maybe 10-12 of us in the boat. There was more than enough space and it did not feel crowded or unsafe.
Finally, figs, Sardinian bread and wine at the lighthouse was a lovely surprise!

The blackout 🤣 - Good memories
We went to 4 for this excursion... Luciano is very easy to reach. That's nice. Just the right timing thing. We had a small engine failure but it was settled without stress with the help of Sardinian sailors. Good continuation
