Great destinations but a stressful and aggressive boarding experience

George_S, Aug 2025
The destinations are great but be prepared to be pushed and shoved every time you board the boat. There are so many people on the boat that there is huge competition for the decent spots, meaning that for each of the 4 times you board the boat there is a scrum of people battling to get on. The staff seem to find it quite amusing but with my wife being pregnant and caught in the middle of it, as well as seeing lots of children also being pushed around, I did not. Either take less people on each excursion or do some sort of allocated seating system..

Very boring tour

Cristina_A, Jun 2025
Not what I expected . Was expecting more fun. Then it was a 2 1/2 hour boat ride to the islands which they did not mention on the listing . At least they sold snacks and stuff but didn’t make up for how overly packed the boat was. People would fight to get back on the boat after every stop which was really annoying because people would push you. Went to the islands during off hours so there was not much to do or see. Wanted to leave mid trip but was too far away to do so 😐

Aeolian Islands with motor ship the “sciara del fuoco”

Daniela_D, Sep 2025
Very nice and clean motorboat. They were punctual at every start. They have described in detail each passage between islands. They recommended places to visit and where to eat. I have to give a 10 for the organization. The Aeolian Islands are wonderful. Exciting the sciara of Stromboli fire, a spectacle of nature.
