A beautiful boat ride

gianluca_n, Aug 2024
Exciting experience, a nice boat trip with two stops for swimming, the last with the possibility of diving from the boat, I recommend it!!

Trip

Andreea_M, Jun 2024
The trip would have been OK if it wasn't for the wind. The waves were quite big and the beaches where we stopped were full of algae and impossible to enjoy. But the food was very good on the boat, free juice or sangria as well.

It was a beautiful, calm...

Agnes_A, May 2024
It was a beautiful, calm day with a wonderful, friendly crew and very delicious paella. Thanks a lot!

Aaron_D, Jun 2023
Went on this trip with my Son and my Mother. It was my sons first holiday abroad. Wanted to book this trip for a special holiday for my son to remember. The trip overall was very good. Staff were very effective and friendly. Paella was very tasty. It not really suitable for people with mobility issues. Very long trip but ever enjoyable Many Thanks for the great trip :)

Great trip, good value. Paella nice. Very busy boat tho, not very social- hoped to meet people but there were large groups and not many singles. Preferred smaller sailing trips I did with small groups for a solo traveler.

Disappointment , there are companies of the most professional competition

Pedro_A, Sep 2025
My son wanted to see the "captain" inside the cab move the steering wheel, however we were confronted as a repulsive attitude to the idea, all right, it is a technically critical area to navigation. Along with this there is the confusion of places when landing and boarding between beaches, they literally let passengers fight for fictionally reserved places like luggage and backpacks.

Good way to visit some beaches

exhaustive tour of the main beaches of the south coast with a stop at two beaches, good experience!

Tour in barca

Rossella_r, Sep 2024
Bella esperienza ma mi aspettavo qualcosa di più, ottime le due soste ma il tour non è stato entusiasmante. Buono il pranzo a bordo.

Gita molto interessante, tempi rispettati, giusto spazio tra navigazione e soste in bellissime spiagge. Buona persino la paella.

Piacevole gita con bimbi

Cinzia_B, Aug 2024
Esperienza positiva fatta con due bimbi. Gli spazi non sono eccessivamente affollati, la traversata è piacevole. È presente un bar dove poter acquistare bibite fresche a prezzi di mercato. La Paella è molto buona. A Cala Turqueta consiglio di fare i tuffi direttamente dalla barca perché la spiaggia in agosto è eccessivamente affollata.

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Grazie mille per la tua recensione, Cinzia! Siamo lieti di sapere che la vostra esperienza con noi è stata positiva e che vi è piaciuto il viaggio in un ambiente confortevole, soprattutto con i vostri piccoli. Ci piace che la paella ti sia piaciuta e che il bar abbia soddisfatto le tue aspettative con prodotti a prezzi equi. Cala Turqueta è senza dubbio un luogo magico, e siamo lieti che vi sia piaciuto. Alla prossima!

Excursión muy divertida

Ander_S, Aug 2024
Las paradas y la posibilidad de hacer buceo o darse un chapuzón en calas espectaculares ha sido de lo mejor de la actividad. Mención especial a la paella: muy rica.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

¡Muchísimas gracias por su reseña, Ander! Nos encanta saber que disfrutase de las paradas y de la oportunidad de bucear en esas calas tan increíbles.

Anna_C, Aug 2024
Vale la pena hacer esta excursión, paras en dos calas estupendas, la paella muy rica, el trato del personal inmejorable, lastima que a nosotros se nos complicó el tiempo y de Cala Turqueta no pudimos disfrutar todo lo que nos hubiera gustado, tuvimos que volver antes por seguridad, lo recomiendo 100%

Response from Host, Aug 2024

¡Muchas gracias por su reseña Anna y por tomarse el tiempo de compartir su experiencia! Nos alegra saber que disfrutase de las calas, de la paella y del trato de nuestro personal. Lamentamos que el clima no hubiera sido el ideal para que pudieran disfrutar de Cala Turqueta tanto como les hubiera gustado. La seguridad de nuestros pasajeros siempre es nuestra prioridad, por lo que la ruta puede verse alterada. Esperamos que puedan volver pronto para vivir una experiencia completa y perfecta. ¡Gracias por recomendarnos al 100%!

Veramente bello
