My husband and I wanted to go on a boat excursion during our honeymoon, having done a few on other trips. Our guide, Alice, was incredibly fun. She was friendly and brought everyone together with food, swimming, music, and dancing! We have never had so much fun on a tour before, and we went back to our hotel with huge grins on our faces. I highly recommend this experience and would do it again myself.
Whitney_H, Oct 2025
We had the absolute best time with Tiziana! She did an amazing job pointing out landmarks and stopping to let us take pics or swim. She also brought snacks from her garden, so it was super personable! Not to mention, she brought the fun! Would 10/10 recommend and we would absolutely do it all over again!

A beautiful way to spend a day! It provided the perfect blend of being on the water, seeing the coat, hearing insightful facts from the crew, jumping in the water (twice!), eating at a good restaurant, walking around in amslfi, and meeting new people. There were snacks and drinks and of course limoncello. Federica and Paolo were wonderful hosts.

It was a last minute booking but it was also the highlight of our trip to Italy. We had a wonderful time visiting the Amalfi town, coast, and the Emerald Grotto. Our skipper and guides were so friendly & attentive. Thank you guys !

Good boat tour and was easy to find the pickup location. The day we went was a little windy and cold, and the two boat operators left it up to us how many times we wanted to stop and swim which we appreciated. They tried to tell us interesting facts as we went along but there was no speaker and it was hard to hear over the water and the boat. We had Prosecco twice and some light snacks. Amalfi was small and busy. The restaurant they take you to for lunch was okay, the food was just okay and it would have been nicer if you could sit with your own party at a separate table rather than the whole boat at a long table since there were plenty of open tables. The server was also very pushy for a tip at the end of the meal. I thought the female boat operator was great and very friendly but the male boat operator made me uncomfortable because he grabbed me as a joke to throw me in the water but I didn’t like him grabbing my body like that.

We had a fantastic day on Peter Pan boat with our host Alice. Prompt pick up and easy communication. Beautiful, comfortable boat. Home grown garden snacks, and plenty of Prosecco along with other beverages were offered. She gave us great info along the coast line from positano to amalfi. And gave us options of where to stop and swim and have a beautiful seaside lunch. After lunch we had a fun time with music and dancing. All in all a great experience!
Stacey_M, Oct 2025
We had a great time on this tour. We were a party of 4 and ended up having the boat to ourselves, 6 missed the boat and 4 other no shows! It was a relaxing trip toward Amalfi, perfect weather. We stopped for a swim and then prosecco and a snack. Then headed to Alamo, we only stopped for and hour and a half. Just enough time for another drink and a little shopping, the town was crazy busy. We had lunch in the way back at a beach restaurant they dropped us at, the food was ok, not fabulous. Got back on the boat and had beautiful views back to Positano, around 4:30 in the afternoon.
Terence_M, Oct 2025
The meeting site is not clearly marked requiring multiple inquiries of local operators/ ferry master to find start location. Once the tour began the tour operator/owner was fantastic. Beautiful sites, great local information and a fun on board atmosphere. It was the best part of our visit to Positano.
Dawn_A, Oct 2025
This was a great tour. It went so fast even though it was seven hours. The boat drivers were wonderful and very informative and it was such a beautiful day. I highly recommend this!
Anna_H, Oct 2025
It was fun to see the coast and the crew was nice. The music on the boat wasn’t really working which was a bummer and the place we stopped for lunch was not good and very overpriced. I wish there was a stop in another town along the coast that was not just Amalfi and that more was included with the price of the boat. But of course the Almafi coast is gorgeous so how could you not enjoy!
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the beauty of the Amalfi Coast and found the crew friendly. However, we're genuinely sorry to hear the music system wasn’t working properly — that's something we’re already addressing.
That said, we want to clarify that we are not responsible for the food or pricing at the restaurant where you chose to have lunch. These are third-party establishments, and unfortunately, we have no control over their quality or cost.
We do appreciate your suggestions about including more stops and offerings in the tour, and we’ll take that into consideration as we look to improve. Thank you again for joining us.

The trip is seven hours. The boat goes rather slowly along the Amalfi coast. It’s the kind of trip that probably could be done in 4 to 5 hours, but a lot of time seems to be wasted at some spots. The two young men who were the guides are excellent. It’s a fun trip, but it makes for a very long day.
John_E, Sep 2025
Great way to spend a half day. Scenery was great, with a couple of opportunities to take a swim if you wish. Prosecco , soft drinks and snacks served on board. Town of Amalfi is really crowded with tourists (hard to find a bathroom). Lunch was not included, but location and food was great. Water pretty choppy!!!
Fleet_G, Sep 2025
This boat tour was absolutely wonderful! Our captain, Luca, was knowledgeable, friendly, and a great boat driver. He told us about the history of certain places as we passed by allowed us to stop to swim and provided us with goggles, towels, snacks, and drinks. Then we stopped in Amalfi for about an hour and a half of shopping and sightseeing, and on the way back, stopped at a restaurant that was only accessible by boat. It was delicious by the way. Also, I'm not sure if we just got lucky but there were only two other people on this tour so it was really private and peaceful. Overall, this was a great trip and I would highly recommend it to anyone in Positano.
Lane_M, Sep 2025
Great time seeing the coast! Perfect tour! Good for learning some of the history, multiple stops to swim, and a nice lunch on the coast!
Kevin_W, Sep 2025
Great trip, I don’t lot of fun went to Amalfi. Great sites on the way. Able to swim several times go into the caves along the way. Had a fun dance party at the end.
Lorraine_C, Sep 2025
Plenty of snacks, Prosecco and stops for swimming, but we did not see all the attractions as advertised . No speaker system so those in the front learned different things than those in the back.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the snacks, Prosecco, and swimming stops!
We’d like to clarify that all the points of interest listed in the cruise itinerary were indeed covered during the tour. We understand that the lack of a speaker system may have made it difficult for everyone on board to hear the same information, and we truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We’ll work on improving communication onboard so that all guests can fully enjoy the experience.
Thank you again for joining us!

Great day. Wonderful crew. Attentive and enjoyable. The crew went the extra mile to ensure a great experience.
Emma_G, Sep 2025
We booked our excursion the night before just wanting to spend the day out on the water. It was perfect. There was 12 people on board plus two staff which was the perfect amount. We had other travelers to hangout with but the boat wasn’t over crowded. They were kind, easy going, answered questions, and gave knowledgeable facts about the areas we passed. They told us about the coast while also giving us time to ourselves to just enjoy being on the water. Well worth the money. Such a good last minute activity.
Kathryn_S, Sep 2025
This is a must when visiting the Amalfi coast. Great way to see the coast. The crew was so friendly and nice. You get to swim in different parts along the coast. This was the highlight of our stay in the amalfi coast.
Zachary_H, Sep 2025
This was perfect! Had so much fun on this leisurely boat ride along the Amalfi Coast. The crew was attentive and made sure everyone was having a good time. Stopped at a couple locations along the journey so we could jump in and enjoy the Mediterranean, which was amazing. Allowed us to go explore Amalfi as well to check out some stores or grab a drink. Do not hesitate book this tour now!!
Malori_P, Sep 2025
The perfect way to see the coast! Easy pickup, excellent guides, great stops. 10/10 would recommend!
Jeff_V, Sep 2025
The small group tour from Positano along the Amalfi Coast was a fantastic experience during the day. We met in the marina of Positano, and about 12 of us onboarded onto the boat. We had 2 tour operators with us. One the captain, and the other was a guide. Both spoke Italian and English and were very knowledgeable and friendly during the trip.
We headed towards Amalfi, and were able to see many of the cool sites along the coast. We stopped a few times to go swimming also. The guide threw bread into the ocean, and the fish came and swam among us in the ocean which was a nice experience.
Eventually we stopped in Amalfi, and disembarked for about an 1 hr and 15 min to explore. After, we came back onboard and stopped at a beach club restaurant just outside of Amalfi. The food was good, and luckily in the shade as it had become quite hot.
On our way back, we stopped for one more swim at a private beach. Overall, it was a fun experience, and we were able to see many cool hotels, houses, boats, yachts, and architecture along the coast. Thank you,

Vito was amazing!
The boat ride was great. Awesome time on the water, not to mention the stops we made. Would recommend to friends.
Kevin_L, Sep 2025
We had such a fantastic time on this boat ride! The whole experience was lively, fun, and went above and beyond our expectations. The hostess was incredible—she not only kept the energy high but also shared so much history and insight about the Amalfi Coast, which really made the trip special. The views were stunning, the atmosphere was amazing, and it truly felt like a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend!
