What are people saying about Sardinia

Laurie_H, Feb 2026

Highlight of Our Magical Trip

We spent a glorious 10 days in Sardinia and Corsica. It was an amazing family trip all the way around, but this private boat tour with Carlos was the absolute highlight of our trip. If we could give it 10 stars we would. He brought us to the most beautiful spots to swim and lounge on his amazingly comfortable boat. He played great music and fed us a delicious lunch, complete with beautiful bottles of local wine. And he was a charming, gracious and super knowledgeable host. We got to all the spots first, before the crowds, which allowed us to swim and paddle board in private. I honestly can't say enough good things about Carlos and this boat tour. Book it now -- I promise you won't be sorry!

La Maddalena Archipelago Boat Tour from Palau

Cherry_R, Oct 2025

Superb day out.

Superb day out. Enough time in each spot. La Maddelena had a little look around the back streets, then just had time for a gelato after a cappucino. I wish I had had another gelato while we were there, because back in Palau where we stayed the next few days, it turned out the gelateria were all closed! The beach at Spargi was amazing, but then was surpassed by the beach at Santa Maria, Snorkelling was great to the side of the beach (saw needlefish, ornamental rainbow wrasse, and lots of more common varieties) Water such an amazing clear turquoise. For both these beaches there is an easy jetty to disembark on a walkway from the boat. In October the tour did finish almost an hour early, so we could have been given a bit more time at the beaches or in La Maddalena. I think in the summer maybe people spend longer swimming from the boat in the Budelli area, so perhaps that is why the timings were not quite accurate. At Budelli swim spot you are asked to stay close to the boat - a bit frustrating if you are a competent swimmer and want to go over to the rocks to snorkel. But I can see that for safety reasons the staff want to keep everyone together in a patch of water where they count heads. Most people stayed on board, but maybe a dozen of us went in the sea, down a ladder. Perhaps at each end of the season the timings for each point's departure need to be a bit different from in the peak season, longer at the first 3 stops and shorter at Budelli.

Amazing boat ride with great guides!

Sure the weather wasnt great or overly sunny but we saw everything with very knowledgeable guide Alma and her sidekick driver Patrick (amazingly safe the whole time). Prosecco was a treat and on the way back we saw many dolphins! We even stopped for a while (outside the time allotted) to enjoy more of our dolphin viewing. I truly recommend this to everyone and this is coming from someone that hates boat rides generally!

Amazing experience!

This tour was one of the best out of many tours we have done in the Mediterranean. Guiseppe and Salvatore were nothing but class. They welcomed us with a nice coffee before we hit the sea. Then from there we were able to stop at 3 incredible locations for a swim and relaxation. They were also very informative giving us facts about the islands as well as appetizers, lunch and some great wine! Would highly recommend anyone to do the tour!
