Jenny is amazing and has so much positive energy. It was a small group and she took us along the coast past all 5 towns. We swam in some great spots with option to snorkel. At sunset she passed out drinks and focaccia. Really awesome experience. Book it!

Absolutely loved this boat trip with local, Captain Jenny. Extremely knowledgeable about the villages, sharing history and happy to answer any questions. Jenny is awesome! Funny and super hospitable, highly recommend booking early to get the time slot you want. We took the sunset tour, swam through a cave and had many, many laughs.

    Beautiful sunset cruise

    Sarah_G, Jul 2026
    This boat tour was a highlight of our time in the Cinque Terre (and we loved every thing we did there!). Captain Jenny was so kind, hospitable and fun! The boat was adorable, and we saw the most beautiful sights from the sea and swam in the cutest swimming spot. Cannot recommend this enough. Loved meeting another couple on the boat as well and sharing the experience with new friends (the couple and Jenny!)

    Book this now!

    Best Boat Tour in Cinque Terre

    Madison_K, Jun 2025
    Our boat tour with Jenny was incredible! She's so knowledgeable about Cinque Terre and it's history while still being so much fun! She navigated us all around the 5 towns where we got to see caves, fish, and swim in a natural pool created by the rocks. She also gave us some delicious snacks and drinks while we cruised along the coast. I highly recommend Jenny for your boat tours. She's the best!

    Jenny is the best!

    Jenny was a wonderful guide. She's someone who truly seems to just love her boat and love being at sea. She was accommodating and informative about difficulties with the weather, and was flexible with us when we needed to make a scheduling change. Highly highly recommend.

    Jenny was a great captain. We learned about the history of the Cinque Terre. She took us to beautiful locations that larger boats cannot access. It was a beautiful day for sailing and for experiencing the coastline. I highly recommend it.

    A boat trip of a lifetime

    Nadiah_M, Dec 2024
    The experience with Jenny was truly an experience of a lifetime 🤩 She was one of the captains who still conducted boat tours in fall, and we were so lucky to experience great weather on the day of our boat tour. She took us around the stunning golf of poets and Portovenere, where we saw all the stunning, colourful villages. Jenny was so knowledgeable about the different islands, and her energy was infectious! She was also super flexible with timings as we were driving over to Cinque Terre from Lake Garda and arrived slightly late. Lastly, she also provided wine & light bites on the boat. Would recommend this boat tour to anyone planning a trip to Cinque Terre!

    Amazing private boat tour in Cinque Terre

    Melissa_C, Sep 2024
    We had the best time with Jenny on a private boat tour. The weather was not the best but the experience was still amazing. Jenny is so knowledgeable about her home and she takes great pride in the land and sea she gets to call home and work. She is a very capable captain and tour guide. We felt right at home on her boat and being with Jenny was like hanging out with a friend! Highly recommend.

    Worth every penny!

    Kelly_W, Sep 2024
    Jenny was the best at giving a tour of Cinque Terre! She gave us so much interesting information and stopped a couple times for us to jump off the boat into the water. Our tour ended around sunset so we had the most beautiful view before we got off the boat!

    A must do in the Cinque Terra

    Ariane_M, Aug 2024
    We had a fantastic few hours on the water with Jenny. She was so engaging, knowledgeable and fun! Would recommend Jenny & her pink boat to anyone.

    Jenny and her pink hyena are SWEET!

    Hunter_G, Jul 2024
    This was such a special occasion! Jenny was an incredible captain 🏴‍☠️, knowledgeable local, and very fun, chatty, entertaining, and lovely human! Her pink 🎀boat ⚓️ is recognizable and she gave hearts 🫶🏼 and love 💕 to everyone we passed. She is meant to do this job and I swear was a mermaid 🧜‍♀️ in a past life. I’m so thankful for this incredible experience and a sunset 🌅 like none other I’ve ever seen!

    Awesome Experience

    Josh_G, Jun 2024
    The experience with Jenny was amazing! She was very flexible when it came to scheduling and her hospitality was second to none. Jenny really took the time to customize the experience for our family and we really appreciated her fun personality as well. This is a must do while in Italy for a holiday!

    Smooth sailing with the best captain!

    Mary_R, May 2024
    Jenny was the consummate host. She was the most phenomenal captain. She knows the sea well and respects it. Our friend forgot to take her motion sickness pills— but it didn’t matter. Jenny’s sailing was so perfect our friend was sipping Prosecco and tossing back icy briny oysters with us — no problem. The best time. We will be back. Jenny had a great dinner recommendation near the square of La Spezia— truly unforgettable.
