A great boat tour with Marco and Edoardo! Professional and friendly, great humour and commentary throughout the boat tour via the Cinque Terre! Beautiful swimming spot, the water amazing. They supplied food and drinks. We had a wonderful time. Highly recommend this tour. Small group which is nice and very well organised and welcoming!

    My fiance and I had a great time doing the morning tour with Diego. It was easy to get a hold of them ahead of time on Whatsapp and seamless experience overall. Diego was a wonderful guide. He explained to use about the region’s history, Cinque Terre culture today, and each village in the region. We had a lot of fun and would highly recommend it! It was a nice blend of learning, relaxing, and seeing Cinque Terre from a whole new angle (the best view in my opinion).

    Waters are not usually smooth but the ride is and the views, drink and eats are great! Was a fantastic experience. If I had more time I’d book the same again!

    Grazie mille Rebecca!!! Hope to see you a next time on board with us!

    Best cinque terre boat tour experience!!

    Sonya_M, Aug 2025
    We truly had the best experience a tourist could ever hope for. The water was extremely wavy on the day we were originally scheduled for, so Sylvia from Fish and Chill Boar Tours offered to take us out bright and early the next day on a beautiful tour of the five towns, with drinks, breaky and such great company. We got so lucky and I wouldn’t want to go with anyone else! Highly recommend!!

    Best boat tour ever!

    Kate_F, Aug 2025
    We had a lovely boat tour of Cinque Terre with Diego! He was very knowledgeable about the area and easy going. He took us to excellent swimming and snorkeling spots. We highly recommended this tour. It was the best way to experience Cinque Terre and was the highlight of our trip to Italy!

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Thank you very much!!!! Welcome back anytime!!!

    Absolutely perfect

    Sarah_F, Aug 2025
    Brilliant trip, the guide Marco was fantastic, really knowledgeable and brought lots of his own stories of growing up around the area which bought extra colour to the trip. The boat was great, perfect for the trip and never felt crowded and the highlight for the kids was the jump off and snorkelling - which was greeted back on the boat with wine and focaccia. Overall one of the best boat trips we’ve done - definitely the best way to see the beautiful cinque terre.

    Michelle_A, Jun 2025
    Silvia was an excellent guide with a lot of knowledge about the area. The morning was the best time to take this trip as the weather was very hot. We were able to see the towns from the water which was very pretty. Stopped for a swim and floating in that water with the beautiful view was paradise!!! Back on board we had some local wine with focaccia and pesto and then a very relaxing return journey. Thanks Silvia, I would highly recommend spending a morning this way in the Cinque Terre😊

    Grazie mille Michelle!!! Really appreciate

    Great for Families

    Rhiannon_S, Jun 2025
    The boat tour was SO great. Eduardo was a fantastic captain and guide. We loved swimming through the cave and just chatting about the history and area around Cinque Terre. We have 4 kids, aged 10-20 and everyone really enjoyed it. The yummy foccacia and drinks were a nice treat.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Grazie for your feedback, we are so glad to hear that the entire family enjoyed! You are welcome back at any time!

    Life changing!

    Martha_H, Jun 2025
    When I tell you, this boat trip changed my life. The only time I have felt such bliss was at the taylor swift eras tour. Edo went above and beyond, we laughed and we sure did cry (when the tour was over). If you go to Monterosso and you don’t do this boat tour.. you are making a BIG mistake. I could talk for hours about the memories my friends and I made on this boat. Picture this: you’re snorkeling in the Mediterranean Sea… you get back onto the boat and BOOM pesto, focaccia, and aperol spritz are waiting for you. From start to finish, this boat tour was more than I could’ve ever dreamed of. Everything about it was perfect. The vibes… the views… the jokes. He even let us connect to the aux and play our own music. I can confidently say the peak of my life was on Princess.

    The loveliest afternoon!

    Tammy_C, May 2025
    Loved this tour. Our guides Marco and Edoardo were very knowledgeable. I love how they started with how things were in the past and how it has changed over time. Not just with the area in general but about each city individually. They kept us engaged and made it fun even though the weather wasn’t that great. Would definitely recommend the tour and the guides.

    Response from Host, May 2025

    Thank you so much! We really appreciate you feedback and welcome are happy you enjoyed the ride even with the non-best weather!!! Hope to host you a future time with the best weather we could have. Grazie mille

    Groovy tour, be sure to schedule this tour!!

    Great host and very informative. They were very easy to work with due to weather issues and rescheduling. Groovy tour.

    Perfect boat trip to see the Cinque Terre

    Rebecca_R, Sep 2024
    Eduardo and Nina were great guides and shared a lot of history about the region as well as personal stories which really brought the area to life. They also interacted with everyone on the boat (10 of us in total) and were really friendly and seemed genuinely interested in everyone. We had a swim in front of Manarola which was beautiful and enjoyed wine and pesto focaccia- perfect! It was the perfect length and great to see the villages from the sea. Would definitely recommend!

    Great excursion. Worth the price!

    Todd_M, Aug 2024
    We got lost trying to get to the dock, so be sure to check the address before going and give yourself time to find it. That said, we called and they gave us directions and waited for us, as we were about 5 minutes late. Our captain, Edo, was awesome. Local guy. Super friendly, helpful, knowledgeable. This was probably one of the best things we did on our Italy trip. We saw all the villages from the water, did some swimming, cliff jumping, local snacks, great photo-ops, small group (8-10) so plenty of room on the boat. Family of four with two teenage girls, all had a great time. We'd do this again in a heartbeat.

    Beautiful tour and...

    Tegan_C, Jul 2024
    Beautiful tour and perfect length. Our skipper, Eduardo was very knowledgeable about the area and history. We had plenty of time for swimming in the clear water.

    Great experience and wonderful captains!

    Amanda_F, May 2019
    We had a wonderful experience with Diego and Sylvia! They waited for us even though we were 15 minutes late. The view was incredible and they were very knowledgeable. They were so nice even though my 2 year old was having a bad moment during what should have been his nap time. The boat was beautiful, spacious and clean. You can't get a better view of Cinque Terre! Overall we were so happy with the experience and highly recommend it!

    Great Experience

    Roam31065258072, May 2019
    Diego was personable and knowledgable - cared a lot for passengers comfort and enjoyment. Partner Sylvia handled the booking beautiful and kept us informed the whole time. Highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see Cinque Terre the best possible way. A+++ all the way.

    Great meeting in a great moment of relaxing discovery!
