OverviewAuto-translated
When you want to relax at sea in Italy, the last thing you need is a busy tourist boat. On this small-group cruise from Numana Port, step aboard a boat that’s limited to just 12 passengers. Without the crowds, you’ll cruise along the Conero Riviera where unspoiled beaches and plunging cliffs beckon. Stop to swim, hear stories of the coast from your skipper, and enjoy a light onboard aperitivo as an extra perk.
- Book an express cruise that doesn’t take up too much vacation time
- Discover scenic beaches such as the famous Spiaggia del Frate
- Use provided snorkel gear to admire the riviera’s underwater sights
- Savor light snacks and a glass of sparkling wine as an aperitivo

Marco was a fantastic, fun and attentive Captain/host. He made our group feel safe and comfortable and tried very hard to explain in English, as he’s native Italian, because of this all the group got along and we had the best time.

Very beautiful sunset trip. Our captain Carlo was entertaining and enthusiastic! Perfect way to spend the evening!
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for your kind words. We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your sunset experience aboard our boat with our captain Carlo. We look forward to seeing you again.
We were not told to take I.D. with us to the port, and it was very boring just looking at cliffs and beaches.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you for leaving your feedback. Italian law requires us to identify anyone renting the boat. Furthermore, it doesn't seem so unusual to travel with an ID, useful in case of emergency. We're sorry you didn't appreciate our reef, but that's what we have.
Great time on the water. MARCO was a very thorough Captain. We had a wonderful day. I can wholeheartedly recommend.
We had a wonderful boat tour! Our captain, Filippo, was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip a fantastic experience. The views were stunning, and everything was perfectly organized. Highly recommended!
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you for your review. We're delighted to hear that you appreciated the professionalism of our staff and the beauty of the Conero Riviera. We wish you a wonderful rest of your vacation and look forward to seeing you soon.
I should have actually given 5 stars. The tour was excellent, the boat was great, and the captain, Roberto, was simply amazing. Unfortunately, I’m deducting one star because my daughter became ill the evening before (which no one could have prevented), and despite asking, I wasn’t able to receive any partial refund. I had booked for 4 people but only attended with 3, at the price for 4

Hello Heinrich. Thank you for your positive review. We're happy to read that our staff met your expectations. We hope your daughter has recovered and is now well. We look forward to welcoming you back for another experience with us. We'll do our best to earn even more recognition and earn that understandably missing star. Have a great holiday, and see you soon.
It was good and worthwhile trip but the sea was choppy so we didn't see all the beaches mentioned.
The guide was nice and friendly but not fluent in English.
Response from Host, Sep 2024

Captain was friendly, safe and gave an apparently amazing talk about the coastline we saw for 2+ hrs. Only issue was it was 99.95% in Italian. We signed up for what clearly said ENGLISH tour. It really made it hard to enjoy. He literally didn’t speak English. Another guest had pity on us and explained a bit. So sad as I used Viator before with no problem.
Response from Host, Jul 2024
Dear Barry,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear that you found the captain friendly and appreciated the safety and duration of the tour.
We sincerely apologize for the language issue you experienced. It is important to us that our tours meet the expectations set during the booking process. We regret that the tour was predominantly in Italian and that this impacted your enjoyment. We will review our communication and ensure that our English-speaking guests receive the service they were promised.
Thank you for your understanding and for bringing this to our attention. We value your feedback and will work to prevent similar issues in the future. If you have any further concerns or if there’s anything we can do to make up for this experience, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.
Best regards,

Fillipo was a brilliant guide! We had a fantastic time exploring the coast, swimming in the gorgeous crystal clear sea and of course sharing our experience with Pepe the dog ❤️. Beautiful way to explore the island, thank you 🙏🏼

Very nice, the bathroom is something that absolutely needs to be redone. Plus we also saw dolphins, how lucky

Grazie di cuore per questa bellissima recensione! La sosta per il bagno a largo è sempre un momento stupendo, ma l'incontro ravvicinato con i delfini è una vera e propria magia che solo il mare del Conero sa regalare. Siete stati incredibilmente fortunati e siamo felici di aver condiviso con voi questa emozione unica. Vi aspettiamo a bordo per il prossimo tuffo e... per un altro momento speciale!
Interesting excursion, but above all the seriousness of the organization was remarkable, as they refunded us for a first trip that was not completed due to rough seas, and the assistance for which they kindly rescheduled a second excursion for us, waited for us, and picked us up at the parking lot when we returned a second time a bit late

Vi ringraziamo sinceramente per aver condiviso la vostra esperienza. La trasparenza nei rimborsi in caso di meteo avverso e il supporto logistico a terra sono per Conero Escursioni requisiti fondamentali. Ci fa molto piacere che abbiate trovato l'escursione interessante e che la nostra flessibilità abbia soddisfatto le vostre esigenze. Sarà un vero onore ospitarvi di nuovo
Super recommended, we had the good fortune of having Mr. Marco as a guide and driver, we visited the entire Conero Riviera in the morning hours, we were the first to arrive at each point and there was space to take a dip in the crystal-clear waters, he explained everything to us with patience, he even took photos of me, we finished the tour with a delicious appetizer, 10/10.

La nostra passione è una garanzia per i nostri ospiti! Felici che abbiate apprezzato anche il bagno e l'aperitivo finale. ¡Esperamos volver a verlos a bordo muy pronto! 🌊🥂
Roberto was very nice and very kind. He even let us take an extra dip upon request and was attentive to a girl who was seasick. The sparkling wine for the aperitif was excellent, and the local stories and legends were very interesting. Highly recommended experience!

Grazie mille per questa bellissima recensione!
Siamo felicissimi di sapere che la simpatia, i racconti sul Conero e quel tuffo extra fuori programma hanno reso la vostra giornata speciale!
Ci teniamo tantissimo a far sentire tutti a casa. Felici che anche le bollicine siano state di vostro gradimento!
Speriamo di rivedervi presto a bordo per un'altra esperienza insieme. Un abbraccione.
A truly impressive experience with Captain Carlo, who was very friendly and well-prepared. Accurate description of the landscape and beaches with those anecdotes (even mythological) that are always nice to hear. Opportunity for a beautiful swim.

Gentilissimo Claudio, siamo molto contenti di sapere che la vostra esperienza sulla costa della Riviera del Conero insieme alla nostra organizzazione sia stata positiva. Ti auguriamo un buon proseguimento di vacanza e un arrivederci a presto.
Beautiful boat ride with two stops to be able to take a dip. It would have been the Top if you could get off the boat at some beach but in the opinion of the captain it is not allowed to approach with motor boats.

Grazie Ivano per il tuo feedback. Siamo felici di leggere che hai apprezzato l'escursione in barca. Ti confermiamo che purtroppo non è consentito raggiungere le spiagge con le imbarcazioni, hai notato infatti la presenza delle boe arancioni all'interno delle quali per motivi di sicurezza è VIETATO transitare per ordine della Guardia Costiera. L'obiettivo infatti delle nostre escursioni è proprio quello di fare vedere, ad una distanza minima consentita che varia dai 100 ai 300 metri, tutte quelle spiagge che sono raggiungibili solo via mare. Grazie e arrivederci.
Super cute experience for those who love to visit from the sea, super nice and easygoing the guy who accompanied us!

Grazie Tamara, siamo contenti di sapere che siamo riusciti a farti vivere una bella esperienza e il personale sia stato all'altezza delle tue aspettative e delle tue esigenze.
Arrivederci a presto.
It is a great opportunity to explore the beaches of Conero from the sea, without climbing paths. We participated in the boat ride with a family aperitif. The motorboat is very comfortable and carries, being wide, a dozen people.
Mr. Marino showed us around all the beaches, explaining the peculiarities, with hints to the history of the places. In addition to the aperitif, good but improveable, it was possible to swim in two coves. The duration of about 3 hours is perfect, especially for those who are not used to being on the boat. It was a wonderful experience and you can see that it is a serious and customer-oriented company.

Ci auguriamo di rivederti per approfondire ancora meglio la scoperta di questo vero e proprio angolo di paradiso della costa adriatica.
Very nice boat trip along a very nice coastline.
Our skipper Filippo knew a lot about the area. He spoke good English. He also looked for a quiet place where we could swim.
We got a lovely glass of bubbles and some snacks.
Filippo’s shift was over after our trip and he even offered us a lift with his car up the hill to our parking lot. Super attent!

Great experience, exhaustive explanation of the places visited, pleasant group polite and nice (Dutch family).
An applause to the nice and macaronic skypper Marco super reliable and well prepared.
It could make a difference to replace the taralli with a local product for the aperitif.
