Highly recommended! - Fantastic experience! 🤩 Tour straconsigliato for those who want to live an experience with all the comforts, Luca and Angela were extremely available, among other things inside their boat nothing was really missing, our child had a great time in total safety and we relaxed, not to mention their typical Sicilian street food , we will definitely be back ❤️

Best tour in Palermo! - We booked a tour boat and it was a 10 out of 10! The staff was very friendly and helpful, they did setup everything that I asked. The food was good, the prosecco and cake were also very good. The surprises for my wife were all executed as planned with a smile from the team. I definitely recommend you to book your tour with them!

Special calm night with beautiful Sunset - As countless others have shared, this was an amazingly relaxing sunset tour enriched with the history of the coast and a breathtaking scenic backdrop. The hosts made every effort to welcome us from providing prompt delivery of key details concerning meet up point and extra items to consider bringing based on intent to swim at Queen's Cave just outside of the Port, to fielding all additional questions we had leading up to our sailing. We took advantage of the option for flowers and cake since we were celebrating a Bachelorette, and they did not disappoint! The floral arrangement and homemade Sicilian cake were absolutely beautiful, personalized, and very sweet! The appetizers and cannolo were equally tasty. They had the absolutely best attention to detail and were incredibly welcoming and friendly. Whether you're looking to do something at your leisure out of the daytime heat or celebrating with friends and loved ones, I hands down recommend taking this quick tour!

Beautiful sundowner with nice people - A great experience with the two, Angela and Luca have thought of everything to make the trip a nice experience. You could even state food intolerances in advance, and the snacks that came with it were amazing, really great. There was a very pleasant atmosphere on board and the two very warm. Highly recommended!

Great afternoon activity - Crew were friendly and put out an excellent spread of Sicilian food with an excellent Aperol Spritz. Water was amazing to swim in, really fresh and clean. The boat ride takes you just outside the port which isn’t as scenic as some other tours but this was expected as we chose a shorter tour.

Incorrect/Poor starting point - I flew from Rome to Palermo to go on this cruise. The starting point address was incorrect. It cost me $125 to take a taxi there and it was the wrong starting point. I would hope at least a credit back for this ticket to use in the future.
