Amazing boat trip experience

Yoshiko_O, Aug 2026
As a solo traveller and not a strong swimmer, I thought a boat tour with life jackets provided would be the best way to enjoy the beautiful coast of Cagliari; and I’m so glad I chose them. The meeting point was easy to find and the Google Maps location was accurate. Just remember to bring your original photo ID (no photocopies accepted). Our guide and captain Luca was fantastic; not only a great captain, but also an excellent guide and entertainer. He showed us some beautiful sightseeing spots and explained the details of the places we visited. The swimming stops were absolutely breathtaking. The clearest blue sea, beautiful beaches and snorkelling with fish swimming around me while floating safely in a life jacket was an unforgettable experience. The tour included a glass of Prosecco, which we enjoyed at the final stop, where I was also lucky enough to see a couple of red starfish after Luca mentioned we might spot them. The sea and beaches were truly magical; I still find myself daydreaming about them. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to discover the stunning coastline of Cagliari, with the reassurance of being well looked after throughout the experience.

10/10 experience! Book it!

Seth_H, Oct 2025
Giovanni was an amazing guide! We had blast. We could have stayed on all day. I have 0 suggestions on improvement as I would say this tour was PERFECT! Giovanni was kind, thoughtful, lively, and fun. He took photos and videos for us, served up amazing prosecco with FUN music and gave us plenty of time to swim and checked in on us every step of the way. He gave us waters and answered all questions we had about the island, locations, etc. 10/10 experience and we would come back to Italy to do it again!

What a gorgeous day out on the water. The trip had plenty of stops to either swim, snorkel or sit in the sun. The Prosecco was flowing and our skipper Pietro was wonderful. Informational, keeping us on track to get to the multiple destinations and an expert driver. It was well worth the money!

Enzo_D, Sep 2025
Had a great time - I’ve been to Sardegna over 20 times in my life and on this trip I saw some of the most beautiful water ever here - accessible very comfortably from the center Cagliari, near the central bus station. Pietro was a fantastic skipper - he picked some gorgeous swimming locations, kept us all safe and entertained throughout the journey with a laid back attitude perfectly suited for a holiday excursion. Strongly recommend!

Beautiful morning! The sea was incredible to swim in and the boat was so fun! We took our kids (9/13) and they both absolutely loved it. Captain Alessandro gave us snorkels and masks to use which was brilliant. A glass of ice cold Prosecco was so refreshing too. Thank you for a lovely morning!

Alessandro was the best tour guide! He took song requests and took us to many great swimming and snorkeling spots. Loved doing the evening tour because we finished up as the sun was setting! Just wish there were no kids allowed on board, they should consider an adults only tour and a family friendly tour at different times. Definitely recommend this tour overall!

It was a very fun experience to be on this boat with friendly and nice guide and passengers. Warm water to swim and snorkle, nice surroundings, but we did not see many different types of fish when we were snorkling. Nice sunset on our way back home. We went from 5 pm - 8 pm.
