Wonderful boat tour along the coast. Excellent tour guide Alberto was kind and friendly. We had trouble finding meeting spot at the marina he came and found us with no issue bc we were late.. had free time to swim in beautiful sea. Highly recommend. Very chill relaxing experience

The whole experience was awesome! Alberto did a great job communicating the day before. He also met us right on time. The boat is very nice with option to sit in the front or the back and has a sun shade. Highly recommend!

This boat tour is an absolute must-do if you are visiting Napoli! It is a unique and relaxing way to see the area. It was the number 1 highlight of our stay here. Our skipper Alberto was fantastic and very accomodating with music, drinks, and snorkel masks provided. We took the sunset tour, first heading out to Nisida with the most amazing panoramic views across the gulf where you can see Mt Vesuvius, Capri and Sorrento on one side and Napoli on the other. As the sun began to set, we gently sailed back along close to the coastline past the likes of Posilipo, Chiaia, the castle, and back to port (while passing many other beautiful places). The narration provided throughout was very informative, and we learnt and saw so much. Along the way we stopped for a lovely evening swim, the water was calm and still warm. Overall we had a great time, 5+++ stars from us. Thank you Alberto and Rent Boat Napoli. Highly recommend booking your boat tour with this company.

The perfect compliment to our previous land trip

David_M, Jul 2025

This was an outstanding choice for us. We took the hop-on/hop-off bus yesterday, and were able to see this route from the land. The trip today, by port, was the perfect way to see it all. The Captain was outstanding. He was prompt and proficient. He knew the areas well, and timed the trip perfectly. I would highly recommend this trip everyone.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Dear David, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that your boat tour was the perfect complement to your land visit — it’s always special to see Naples from both perspectives! It’s great to know you enjoyed the route, the timing, and the stories along the way. Your kind words about the captain mean a lot to us — punctuality and sharing local knowledge are things we really care about. Thank you for recommending us — we’d love to welcome you back anytime for another adventure on the water! Warm regards, Skipper Alberto & the Rent Boat Napoli Team

Fun shoreline tour

Anne_E, Jun 2025

Nice shorter excursion with view of the city from the water and learn some of the history. Alberto was genuinely kind and fun. I might just recommend someone meet you at the front gates. 2 confused old gals. lol

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Dear Anne, Thank you so much for your kind and cheerful review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the tour and the views of Naples from the water — and it was truly a pleasure having you both on board. And noted! Next time, I’ll make sure someone meets you right at the front gates — no more “confused old gals” wandering around! 😄 Wishing you all the best, and I hope to see you again for another fun adventure at sea! Warm regards, Skipper Alberto Rent. Boat Napoli

Fun, informative and relaxing! Don’t miss out!!!!

Carlos_H, May 2025

Today, I went on the a beautiful boat ride down the coast of Naples with Skipper Alberto. When I booked I was nervous because of so many choices. Well, I made the right choice. We started with a history of each Napoli area along the coast. Very informative, beautiful views & a great local wine. After the history and tour of the coast, we returned with about a 45 min return to enjoy the views and atmosphere of the beautiful napoleon coastline! I will be back again and I’ll only be asking for Skipper Alberto. I spent 9 days in Italy and this was my favorite part. Grazie milli

Response from Host, May 2025

Dear Carlos, Grazie mille for your wonderful review — what a joy to read! I'm truly honored that you chose our tour among so many options, and even more thrilled that it became the highlight of your 9-day journey through Italy. It was a pleasure to welcome you aboard and share the stories, sights, and flavors of Naples with you. Knowing that you found the tour fun, informative, and relaxing is exactly what we strive for. And that local wine? Always better with good company! I’ll be looking forward to the day we welcome you back — the sea and I will be here, waiting to take you on another unforgettable ride. Warm regards, Skipper Alberto Rent Boat Napoli

Alberto and team took us...

Lorna_C, May 2025

Alberto and team took us out for a tour of the coast (to the west/north of Naples). We cruised close to the shore and were provided with a commentary and information from Alberto and team. There was time for a leisurely swim - the May sea temperature was lovely. The boat was the right size for our group of 4. Overall, a very enjoyable trip - I would recommend this to others. Thanks!

Response from Host, May 2025

Dear Lorna, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a real pleasure having you on board and showing you the beauty of our coastline. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and the relaxing swim — May really is a lovely time to be out at sea. We're also glad the boat was the perfect fit for your group. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure on the water sometime soon! Warm regards, Alberto and the whole team
