    The trip was amazing from start to finish! Alessio and Fabio were very knowledgeable, friendly, and funny and shared great stories throughout our trip. The views were incredible and the food was perfect throughout. We loved all the stops to swim and relax and would love to come again the next time we visits Sardegna.

    Wonderful sailing day on the Tavolara way

    Alex_D, Aug 2024
    Captain Luigi is a real captain. Supportive, precise, competent but also kind and smily. The crew with Stefania and Laura is lovely and making you feel at home! This is the only meaningful way to experience Tavolara and Molara islands in a sustainably and enjoyable way.

    Rememboral experience

    Irene_L, Sep 2023
    The Total tour is memorable. Leaving the harbour en then raising the sails was an experience by itself. The sights from the sea to the shore and the islands is beautiful. The english speaking guide was good. She explained the history of certain places. The slimmigheid in the sea was refreshing, you swim beteren the fish. Clear water. We had different times they served food. Sith different kind of wines from Sardinië. Tasted good. Sun block you need. So the Total tour is an experience itself to remember. Thanks to the captain and the guide

    Come on time 1/2 hour before for parking with the monaiGo app, otherwise enjoy And no need to come up with water to eat everything is included, the staff sounded with little care with us what fun it was great,

    Response from Host, Jul 2025

    Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! 😊 Oui, très bon conseil pour le parking avec l’appli monaiGo. Et ravi que vous ayez apprécié l’attention de l’équipage et le service tout compris. À une prochaine ! ⛵️

    Escursione troppo easy

    Rixxx76_B, Aug 2024
    Organizzazione molto easy non basta tra l'altro fare un piatto di pasta e dare degli antipasti e portarci in tre baie quando l'escursione dura sette ore

    Response from Host, Sep 2024

    Caro cliente, francamente non riusciamo a capire che cosa tu voglia intendere con organizzazione troppo easy ci sembra una critica un po’ generica che non specifica dove secondo te dovremmo migliorarci. Le tre soste, come appunto dicevamo, intervallate da veleggiate, sono esattamente il programma che è stato pubblicato quindi non riusciamo a capire in questo senso la critica verso che cosa è rivolta. Per quanto riguarda il piatto di pasta dobbiamo ricordarti che non è proprio così: avete mangiato un antipasto fatto con tre tipi di pecorini sardi con la salsiccia sarda al mirto, un salame tipico specifico della Sardegna aromatizzato al mirti, tartine , pane carasau e altri snack come il guttiau ,,,, tutto questo come aperitivo il piatto di pasta che dici tu è un piatto tipico di origine del Sud della Sardegna a base di ingredienti mediterranei e di pesce. inoltre ricorderai vi è stata servita la frutta i dolci tipici il caffè il mirto oltre ovviamente a vino fresco birra e bevande: francamente non riusciamo immaginare come una persona possa mangiare piu di quello che vi è stato servito durante il giorno. Se puoi darci dei consigli per come migliorare il nostro tour, visto che lo consideri easy e che tutto questo non basta per farvi passare una bella giornata, saremmo felici di ascoltare da te le tue preziose considerazioni ed illuminanti consigli per migliorare il nostro tour. Un cordiale saluto ed un augurio che tu possa tornare alla tua meravigliosa vita di sempre

    Paseo espectacular

    Edwin_E, Aug 2024
    El paseo espectacular y la atención de los anfitriones (Agustín y el otro disculpen pero se me olvidó el nombre) fue increíble! Muy recomendable este paseo, se pasa muy bien !

    Organizzazione, barca e team perfetti! Un itinerario più inedito rispetto agli altri classici tour in barca nel nord Sardegna!

    Expérience hors du temps

    Margault_C, Jul 2024
    La vue était incroyable. L’équipage et le capitaine étaient vraiment très sympas. Le repas était top. Superbe excursion que nous recommandons à 200% ! Les deux Françaises 🇫🇷

    Response from Host, Aug 2024

    merci beaucoup pour ces mots. Nous sommes heureux de vous avoir fait découvrir les merveilles de la Sardaigne à bord de notre bateau. A bientôt !

    Très belle sortie en mer

    Christelle_P, Jul 2024
    Très belle sortie en mer, très bien organisée tant sur le timming que sur la prestation repas. Je recommande.

    Viator trabaja muy bien

    Laura_G, Jul 2024
    Hacia muy mal día de mar, viento y nubes. Llamamos para ver si podíamos cancelarlo en el momento de embarcar y no nos pusieron ningún problema reembolsándonos el dinero. Viator son muy buenos profesionales. Esperamos poder hacer la excursión en otra ocasión

    Belle journée en mer

    Ekaterina_K, Jun 2024
    Excellente journée en compagnie de Luigi et de Ricardo qui ont été aux petits soins pour nous ⛵️ Il n'y a pas tellement de beaux rochers ou de cavernes à découvrir de près, mais cela est dû à la configuration des lieux. L'expérience reste magnifique, on ne regrette rien! En plus, l'apéritif, le repas de midi cuisiné sur place, de bons fruits et du prosecco ont comblé toutes les attentes. Bravo! Seul point à relever: rien n'est organisé pour le parking au port, il faut prévoir l'emplacement à l'avance ou bien payer le parking au port (5 €).

    Response from Host, Jun 2024

    Merci pour votre avis, nous étions heureux de vous avoir à bord et nous espérons vous revoir bientôt sur nos autres bateaux et catamarans. Nous sommes désolés que vous soyez déçu par le problème du stationnement mais en Sardaigne où les places de stationnement sont vraiment. difficile à trouver, avoir un parking payant à 100 mètres du bateau, oui, mais cela ne coûte que 5 € par jour, mais nous pensons que c'est un avantage : dans d'autres lieux de bord de mer, cela coûte dix fois plus cher ! en tout cas merci et à bientôt !

    Luigi e Livia foram muito...

    giampaolo_m, Sep 2023
    Luigi e Livia foram muito atenciosos e prestativos. O passeio é imperdível. Acredito que não podem ter mais que 8 pessoas neste passeio.
