Great trip - The ride was rough, but that was the seas fault not the capitane. The views were great of stromboli, lipari, and vulcano. Although, we wished that they would have done the tour backwards and we might have seen some lava flowing down strombolli!!!

Great impressions and delicious food - It was a very nice trip that lasted the whole day. The stops in Vulkano, Lipari and Strommboli were very nice. The food at La Cambusa on Lipari was a dream. The only thing that could have been a bit longer was the stay in Stromboli. We went for a quick swim and wanted to enjoy another drink. Because of the Sicilian leisurely nature of the preparation, we had to drink it in a few gulps to catch the boat. There was a German tour guide with us and we got all the information in our language.

Great value - Very good value. A 12 hour trip for about €55 each. The highlight was the unique hot springs and thermal vent on the beach at Vulcano. Turn right off the boat. Make the most of the two hour stop. The rest was a bit disappointing for me. Pretty villages but no other volcano experience. Stromboli is active but there is no time to even see it. For that you need a night-time boat trip to the far side.

Beautiful visits, but 6 hours on the boat is a long time! - These 3 Aeolian Islands are different. Stromboli with its active volcano, Lipari, the largest, pleasant and lively. And Vulcano with its sulfur bath quarries is original. Unfortunately they are located quite far from the continent, and we had to do 6 hours of navigation, although quickly. Bravo, however, to the punctuality of the staff. One regret, however, is that there is no French-speaking guide, we were not able to benefit from any explanation.....

“In English” not so much. - Though the description says the tour is in English, it is not. The boat ride started with tour director speaking for 10 minutes in Italian about the geography and history, then in English said welcome, Lipari is our first stop because Stromboli is erupting, the bathrooms and bar are on the bottom level. Literally that was all the information we received in English. One of my children threw up (in the bathroom!) from seasickness, and a skipper was very kind and showed us the best place to sit and helped us by spraying water on us etc, but the boat had no seasickness remedies - the bar didn’t even have gingerale. The towns of Lipari and Vulcano were very interesting, but extremely hot and there is no where to get shade in Vulcano.

Nice day out, but not for me... - The boat, the crew, and the punctuality are all on point. The locations are beautiful, and the information given on board is great (Italian, German, English). No complaints about that. However, next time I would take a one-way trip and do the rest on my own. All of the Eolian islands are connected by ferries and I felt I could stay overnight in a place like Lipari, and visit the islands on my own timing. I did not enjoy the group-excursion trip-type: people running over themselves to make pictures off the boat, the waiting around for the boat, the lines to get in and out. An extra boat tour is offered, which takes you to nice places with good commentary, but the music blasting through the speakers on the way is deafening. So, IMHO, not for me and I would not do it again, but I see the advantages of something like this for other people. BTW, if you take this tour, SIT ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BOAT. You'll thank me later.

Only Italian tour and Stromboli not laid out at all - The island trip itself was nice. Only without German leadership ,in English only the most important was said. So only for Italian tourists. Stromboli was not put on as they said it was too dangerous. The journey was thus 90 min . At the request of a small repayment I was told that this needs to be discussed with his colleagues and you will call back. 5th day is now and still without callback.
