LOVED these guys! Our sunset focaccia & wine cruise was sensational! 4 Americans, 2 Ozzie's, 2 Belgians, and 4 Portuguese (one ONE HONEYMOON.... You figure THAT one out!!!) became fast friends within moments. Roberto is a wonderful captain who obviously lives to be on the water with friendly folks. He shared great insights, brought us to hidden grottoes & waterfalls, and generally ensured our comfort & happiness. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATIONS!
We really enjoyed this boat trip! The captain was a very friendly guy who told us about the history and features of the Cinque Terre villages. The swimming stops exceeded all our expectations — turquoise water, colorful fish, caves, a small waterfall, and stunning scenery created truly unforgettable and wonderful memories! I definitely recommend this boat company.
Incredible afternoon (3hrs) on the water. Knowledgeable and friendly Captain (Roberto) took us up the coast to see all 5 villages and made a couple of stops so everyone could swim. Excellent value and highly recommend….
We had a very nice day with our two kids! Thanks to Andrea!
The perfect way to experience Cinque Terre!! We cannot rate this experience highly enough. Andrea was the best guide and we’ll remember the experience forever.
Our guide Andrea was great. We had a wonderful day on the water with lots of swimming stops and Prosecco!
Thoroughly enjoyed our sunset cruise from Riomaggiore! The meeting location is easy to find after walking through the pedestrian tunnel from the train station. Our boat guide, Angelo, was very hospitable with the wine pouring & music vibes jamming. We loved that it was a small group and plenty of space on the boat to relax. We went to Manarola & Vernazza for sunset pictures. Then Angelo took us swimming. Fun excursion in Cinque Terre - highly recommend for sunset!!
We had the most perfect day on Andrea’s boat!!! He was amazing and made it so much fun- best part of our trip hands down
Andrea is a kind, attentive, helpful, polite, and funny young man. My family and I enjoyed every moment of the half-day tour. I thought eight hours would be too much, but to be honest, it wasn’t enough. Monterosso — where we stopped — is a wonderful place. An hour and a half, including lunch, was too short for this charming town. We’ll definitely return. The deck of Illusione is equipped with every comfort: soft music if you ask for it, and after a dip in the sea, you can even take a shower. Andrea’s fridge is always stocked like a good host’s — with Prosecco, lemon soda, and more. You won’t go thirsty or hungry, and the views are simply stunning. The small boat is a traditional gozzo — we had never traveled on one before, but being so close to the sea made the experience much more personal. Few people, no crowds — it made the whole trip feel unique. Thank you, Andrea — we’ll be back!
My fiancé and I had a wonderful time on the 2 hour private tour of Cinque Terre! Our boat captain Davide was amazing as well!! He was very friendly, gave us lots of information on the towns and what we could do within them, and was a great driver. Would highly recommend booking one of their tours if you come to Riomaggiore!
