This experience was our entire family’s FAVORITE day in Italy! Freddie and Giuseppe were AMAZING captains and excellent with our kids (9 and 7)! They were attentive, knowledgeable, and SO MUCH FUN! The drinks, light snacks and music on board were perfect! I’d absolutely recommend this excursion to anyone—10/10!

Perfect trip

Mark_H, Apr 2026

Perfect trip on a nice boat. We can really recommend it. Communication before the trip, and information about the coast during the trip very good.

Super fun!

Palermo Boat Day Review

Daniel_M, Sep 2024

We had a really fun time on our boat day. We were a little surprised when we arrived and there were other people joining us when it was advertised as a private boat tour. However, Giuseppe and Francesco were excellent hosts making everyone feel welcomed by offering snack, aperitifs, and other refreshments. The boat itself was large enough to comfortably seat 6 passengers plus the guides. All in all it was an excellent experience, and definitely worth going on!

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Dear customer , we are happy to receive your review, we have understoop that a trascription error, on the site. We are already working to correct it. We offer the shared tour and on request also the private one. Iam sorry for the misunderstanding . I am thrilled that you were satisfied with the shared tour anyway.

5/5 Stars for The Actual Experience On The Boat

Jennifer_H, Aug 2024

I struggled to rate this tour. The captain and skipper were 5/5 and the tour was lovely. However, it was what happened before the tour that made me rate it less than 5/5. We were supposed to go 3-7 PM the day before but they asked us to move it from Wednesday to Thursday due to the weather. Which was totally fine. When we arrived on Thursday, there were another couple on the boat. I asked why they were there because I booked a private tour? They said no I didn't. So I brought up the booking that says private. They then said well that is the sunset tour. I said I know but you asked me to reschedule because of the weather, so I would not have agreed to this one if I knew it was not private. They then spoke in Italian to each other, which my husband understood, and they were discussing what to do. They then offered us 150 euros back because they did not have another time slot to take us private. It all ended up working out well, but I booked the private tour for a reason and was upset that we did not get that. Again, the captain and skipper were lovely. So I would say that the only thing I would check is that it is PRIVATE when you book it if they try to move you slots.

Dear customer , thank you for your review , we understood the misunderstanding caused by an incorrect description on the site. We work with shared tours and on request we offer private ones. We have already made changes to the site. We are happy that in the end everything went well .See you soon and thank you

Breathtaking with a few hiccups

Heidi_J, Jun 2024

The meeting point was difficult to find and using different map apps would put you in different places, walking around in circles as a result. I tried to contact the tour operator through the app and did not get a response. Eventually, my husband was able to get someone on the phone who met us and took us to the correct dock. We were able to book this the day before but were unable to get an English speaking guide, so the last minute booking, may have been part of the problem with getting an English speaking guide. Otherwise, the boat tour was for the full 4 hours and absolutely breathtaking.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

thank you for your review we are happy that in the end you enjoyed the tour despite the initial inconvenience for which we apologize.

Beautiful day in...

Marco_I, Aug 2025

Beautiful day on the boat with Giuseppe who entertained us with music laughter and sympathy if you have to do the tour ask for him
