Really brilliant experience. The small group made a big difference — it felt personal and relaxed, and we were given loads of interesting info and helpful tips along the way. We stopped to swim in a stunning spot, which was a real highlight. There was also a lunch stop (not included), which ended up being one of the best parts — a proper local Italian seafood place, fresh as it gets and absolutely delicious. All in all, a great day out and one we won’t forget any time soon.
A massive thankyou to Fabio and Elvira for making the trip so enjoyable! Would definitely recommend if you’re in the Amalfi area.

We had a wonderful day with Fabio and Elvira. They were fantastic hosts, very friendly and informative. We saw the entire Amalfi Coast and stopped at a lovely family run restaurant for lunch. We stopped for a swim in the clear blue waters as well. Highly recommend this tour for all ages.
Be sure to bring some sunscreen and a towel to thoroughly enjoy this trip! What a sight to see and enjoy the beautiful cliffs of the Amalfi Coast. Ivan and his first mate made the trip very relaxing and enjoyable despite the slightly rough waves from the previous day storms. We would definitely encourage anyone to take this trip between Amalfi and Positano looking for a relaxing day.
The views were incredible and our experience was amazing. I really like how the company contacted us before the trip so we knew exactly where to go. The sailboat was gorgeous and the hosts Ivan and Elisa were great. Not the company’s fault but I wish the time was longer.
The captain and crew were wonderful! We were welcomed on board of the beautiful sail boat and treated to a truly amazing view of the Amalfi Coast, including a stop where we could swim. We were provided a lovely fruit and champagne snack following our swim. The captain even took photos along the way and shared those with us following our sail - which is so nice since we couldn't capture it all. The crew took into consideration our cruise "all-aboard" schedule and mapped out as much of the coastline that they could while allowing us to meet up with our cruise ship on time. Wonderful, relaxing and beautiful excursion.

What a wonderful day we had sailing on along the picturesque coast. The water is so blue that it just doesn't look real! It is true the coast is best seen from the water. Fabio and Elivra were warm and welcoming, with excellent organization and communication before our trip. As we relaxed to their great music playlist, they provided us with interesting information about what we saw - historical sites, movie scenes, etc. Everyone enjoyed the prosecco and delicious snacks. My husband and I didn't know the other passengers, but we very quickly felt like friends. The sail was one of the highlights of our trip and worth every penny. We highly recommend!!
Fabio and Elvira were absolutely wonderful and amazing! This was the highlight of our time spent on the Amalfi coast and it wasn’t even close. The views from the ship beat any from the shore, as well as the snacks and the pure enjoyment of taking in everything while relaxing! Fabio gave tons of information on Amalfi and many of the surrounding town, such as historical sites, movie scenes, celebrity homes, etc. It was perfect and the two of them made it a blast. We got an option to swim or go to Positano, which the small group (only 4 people!) decided to go to Positano. We then stopped for lunch at a seaside restaurant accessible by the sea. That was delicious and Fabio’s recommendation of food was delicious! If we ever come back to the Amalfi coast, we will be booking this adventure again!
Fabio and the first mate (so sorry I forgot her name) were wonderful. The history and information they provided of the Amalfi coast will be remembered for years to come. The restaurant where we had lunch had such deliciously fresh seafood and the location was quaint and perfect. We highly recommend this sailing adventure. It’s a must do!
Truly magical sailing trip under blue skies and in calm waters! Couldn’t recommend this trip more highly - excellent organisation from Fabio before we boarded and a great welcome from Italo and Amelie on the boat. We travelled miles along the Amalfi coastline while our hosts pointed out special beaches and amazing houses! We swam off the boat near the caves followed by Prosecco, fruit and cheese! Great fun with our fellow shipmates too! Magical day - will do this again when we hopefully return to Amalfi in the future!
Beautiful trip! Italo and Lorenzo were very kind and helpful. I’d suggest taking some medicine for sea sickness beforehand if you think that might be a problem for you. A highlight of our trip for sure!
The crew was amazing. The views spectacular. Taking the time to stop and go for a swim was the highlight.
We took a morning tour. We were staying in positano, and because the first ferry was cancelled, we were a half hour late. However the guides were very accommodating and the called the boat back in to pick us up, very nice of them. The boat ride was very relaxing , and had great views of the coast. They also brought snacks and Prosecco/beer.
We were traveling on our honeymoon and this was a wonderful day trip. It’s the full amalfi coast boating experience at a fraction of the price you will see around. Claudio was a wonderful host, and we got to see so much more of the coast that we wouldn’t have had time to see otherwise. We even got to stop at Cetara a small fishing village before continuing on our way. Super flexible hosts and amazing views! We didn’t actually sail but still was a beautiful and well-worth it trip.
Fabio and Elvira were absolutely fantastic hosts!! We came in on the TrenItalia to Salerno and easily found the departure point. Fabio had a wealth of knowledge about the Amalfi Coast and was highly engaged with every person on our tour. The prosecco and oer d'oeurves served while anchored in the cove hit the spot. We could not believe how clear the water was! They did not have an afternoon group so we stopped for lunch at a beachside restaurant on a fairly quiet cove before returning to Salerno. We took the train back to Rome that evening and Fabio absolutely maximized the time we had before having to be back at the dock to get to the station. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a beautiful day out on the Amalfi Coast.
This one of the best boat tours I’ve been on by far!! My friends and I enjoyed a fun filled day exploring the amalfi coast. Fabio and his co-captain were very welcoming and friendly and did a great job hosting us on their boat. We learned a lot about the history and fun facts about the Amalfi coast.
We met them in Salerno and it was a very small group of 8 so it was basically like a private tour. We sailed to a small beach where we swam in the most beautiful and clear blue water. They provided Prosecco and Beer and small snacks for us! We then sailed passing by all the small towns along the amalfi coast. We happened to stop for lunch at Fabio’s favorite restaurant and it was divine!! We then ended the day by sailing back and enjoying the scenery. I 110% recommend this boat tour for anyone interested!!
We were in Solerno for only one day (cruise ship) but knew we wanted to get out to see the beautiful coast from the water, and Captain Fabio’s sailboat tour did not disappoint. It was listed as a 3 hour tour, but we were closer to 5 hours of cruising up the coast and enjoying the gorgeous scenery with legs dangling over the side. We had 20-30 minutes to go swimming in a neat cove surrounded by steep cliffs, a great setting for a refreshing swim. The crew was very friendly and helpful, sharing a nice selection of fresh fruits and drinks at our stop and sharing stories and history of the small towns we passed. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone who enjoys getting out on the water to see a beautiful part of the country.
We had a wonderful, relaxing time on this trip. Lorenzo and Italo made everyone feel welcome. They pointed out famous landscapes and served a delicious aperitif with fruit, cheese and wine. The winds were not such that we could u fuel the sails but regardless, we enjoyed the trip immensely. The directions of where to meet the boat were timely and clear. I would highly recommend this excursion.
Cannot recommend this more! We were on Italo’s boat with his son and they were fantastic. The boat is the perfect size for a small group. The snacks are great, the drinks flow, and the views are incredible.
It truly is the luxurious experience you’re looking for for a fraction of the cost.
We loved this trip! They were so accommodating with everyone. We had a cooking class we needed to make sure we got back in time for so they even made and extra stop exactly at the beach we needed to be at and called a water taxi to pick us up. The snacks were delicious and they were always serving us another drink if we needed. Highly recommend this tour for a few hours on the water to see the views!
Fabio was an excellent skipper and took us to some great spots for sightseeing and swimming. I went with my sisters and we had a great time! We actually got some real sailing in. The boat was immaculately clean and Elvira was very attentive to our needs. They also had the best music playlist, which was perfect for the incredible views of the Amalfi Coast.
We had a great time with the tour. The captain and crew were friendly and described the region we cruised by well. We stopped for a swim and had a refreshing experience there. There was not enough wind to sail and there was no snorkeling equipment available. We didn’t care about the snorkeling because we didn’t plan to, but we would have liked to at least raise the job and try. It was still an awesome experience and worth the price.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Thank you so much for your kind words and the wonderful 5-star review. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the tour and found the experience with our captain and crew to be friendly and informative.
We apologize for the lack of wind which prevented us from sailing as we would have liked. Additionally, we regret that the snorkeling equipment was not available on this occasion. Due to unforeseen maintenance issues with our usual vessel, we had to arrange for an alternative boat for your tour. In the process of transferring the equipment, the snorkeling gear was unfortunately overlooked.
We appreciate your understanding and are glad that this did not detract from your overall experience. Your feedback is invaluable to us and helps us ensure that all aspects of our tours meet our high standards.
We hope to welcome you aboard again soon, with all equipment on hand for a fully immersive sailing and snorkeling adventure.
Warm regards,
Fabio
This is a hard one to summarise, from the quality of the vessel to the father and son that owned the yacht to the refreshments and the music. It just doesn’t get better than this. We had an amazing time and highly, highly recommend you do this on the Amalfi Coast, thank you.
Loved seeing the beautiful Amalfi Coast and were treated SO well from Fabio. He was great at communicating and we were treated like royalty on his boat.
Exceptional experience! We came to Salerno on a day trip from Rome (high speed rail was 90min) and this was the perfect way to relax and enjoy the beauty of the Amalfi Coast. Fabio and Elvira were incredibly welcoming and the boat is absolutely beautiful. Loved the opportunity to eat lunch at a family owned restaurant and walked away with homemade limoncello. A highlight of our visit to Italy.
Seeing the Amalfi Coast from the water (especially under sail) was a once-in-a-lifetime experience; and Fabio and his delightful crew made it especially pleasurable. There is no way a drive along the hair-raising Amalfi Drive can capture the panorama and sights (above and below the Strada) we experienced. (Pity the poor souls in busses.)
Out of Amalfi, we made it all the way east to Maiori, stopping at Pandora's Cave along the way; and then at a beautiful beach (accessible only by water) where we swam and snorkeled for 40+ minutes (with the advertised aperitif, plus more prosecco) . Heading back all the way to Positano under sail, Fabio shared his extensive knowledge of the area's history, and pointed out a number of interesting mansions and other landmarks. In Positano, we all captured even more personal photos to share back home. Nearly five hours of an unforgettable experience.
As a life-long sailor, I can attest that Fabio is a sailor's sailor (with a relaxed demeanor and great sense of humor). His boat-handling skills are impressive. His boat is impeccable and in Bristol condition. He did his best to maximize the amount of time under sail (which added immensely to my personal pleasure). And when the winds whipped up, he reefed the mainsail a bit to make everyone [else] comfortable.
Captain Fabio was so enjoyable and professional. The boat is beautiful and kept perfectly. The scenery of the coast is spectacular from the sea. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. An amazing way to spend a day in paradise - Amalfi! Would highly recommend taking this wonderful trip around the coast with Fabio!!!
Very nice way to see the coast! It was a very good sized boat for a smaller group. Fabio was knowledgeable and kept the prosecco coming!
Fabio and Elvira were very knowledge and easy to be around.
First class service from the moment we stepped on board.
Fabio and Elvira both made our Amalfi coast visit all the better! Fabio was telling us the ins and outs of Amalfi, it's history and its history. We had such an amazing time!
Fabio and Elvira far exceeded expectations. They welcomed us as if we were old friends. They took us to a beach and restaurant only accessible by boat. The prosecco, fresh fruit, cheese and crackers were a delicious treat when we underway. The boat was immaculately maintained. We will definitely sail with them again when we return to the beautiful coast of Amalfi.
