Small Group Sorrento Coast and Amalfi Coast boat tour with Local Host on board

The boat ride was nice. However, it said 8am start time and we got a note the night before stating the tour wouldn’t start till 9:30. We didn’t get on the water until 11:00 because we had to wait for the whole group and whatnot. This was very disappointing. I wish we could have spent more time in the towns.

Seeing the beautiful cliffs, historical elegant architecture. Our group consisted of only 12, our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Opportunities to swim in the warm Mediterranean. Appreciated pickup and return to a hotel near our Airbnb.

The cruise from Sorrento to Amalfi and return was a wonderful way to begin our visit to Italy. With Raffaele driving the well maintained boat (and singing along with a song or two) and Luisa as a wonderful guide as we explored the Sorrento and Amalfi coasts in perfect weather, what could be better? Snacks included a sandwich of mozzarella and tomato, beverages, some tasty bites. Along with some wonderful swim s5ops and fresh water rinse-offs, what could make the day more perfect?

We had an amazing time! The service was excellent and the trip is really complete. We enjoyed all the different stops that they took us. We would definitely repeat it!

I gave this trip 3 stars as we did accomplish everything promised in the description, and the boat was nice quality. However, the trip was not managed particularly well. In reading other reviews, I think this comes down to the guide you get, so hopefully you get a different one than we did. Calling him a host, rather than a boat driver, was generous as he provided no information other than "now we are in Amalfi" or "that was a lighthouse." It would have been nice to know a bit more about what we were seeing, though perhaps this was a mistake to expect on my part. I was notified the night before that I'd be picked up an hour and half later than planned, not a huge deal because I was told I'd still be done by 18:30. Ultimately I was dropped off at 20:00, meaning I was not able to do something I had originally planned to do that evening, which was frustrating. Additionally, we spent the most time on land during the tour at a beach restaurant that our group didn't really want to visit, and tried to overcharge a member of our party. Fortunately she spoke Italian and was able to advocate directly for herself and get some of her money back. But that meant we got to spend only 30 minutes in Positano (and waited 15 minutes past the meetup time for the boat to get back), and only got to swim once. Overall, it felt like the guide was pushing us to go to the restaurant, at the expense of the other parts of the trip that were actually what was advertised. All in all, I wouldn't necessarily advise you against this company, but I would advise you to ask the boat driver to explain the day's plan and get agreement from the group early so there are no unfortunate surprises, and very late schedules, later on.

This was a great trip on a truly hot day in Sorrento. A bit overcast in the morning and sunny during the afternoon. Wonderful boat ride along the coast. ‘Chesca and Salvi were smiling and engaging. Just enough information, not overwhelming or droning on. We stopped to swim 2X. Water was beautiful. Relaxing day.

What an amazing day we had! We travel a lot and it was one of the most amazing boat trips we had. Francesca was extremely helpful and attentive constantly offering us a drink and looking after us. P.S we had a 6 year old child with us and he absolutely loved it

The tour was fantastic. The guides, Marco & Andrea were very welcoming and informative. We had plenty of time to explore Amalfi & Positano and the caprese sandwich supplied for lunch was an added bonus. My main worry when booking this tour was regarding social distancing, I had no need to be concerned, all transport to & from the port was well organised and not crowded at all. There was only one other couple on the boat tour and they sat at the back of the boat and we sat at the front, it felt very safe. Temperatures were checked and everyone wore masks when in fairly close proximity to one another. I really can’t thank the tour operator enough for what they managed to provide during an extremely difficult time for the travel industry. I wish them all the best and would encourage people not to hesitate bookIng this trip based on the wonderful service we received.

My train was delayed, but the company waited for me which was very kind. Best way to see the beautiful Amalfi coast. Enough time in each town as they are quite small. Incredible experience at a good price!

This trip was all it was advertised to be. Arrangements were made for them to pick us up at a close location. Several different booking agencies worked together very well to take care of multiple groups/boats of up to 12 from a central location. Our host on board, Josephine was an absolute delight and her English was very good. We did stop twice along the coast to allow for people who wanted to swim in the Mediterranean, but we stayed on board and enjoyed conversation with another couple and the hostess. Our stops in Amalfi and Positano were for the perfect lengths of time. The captain of the boat worked with our host to meet the desires of those on board. Everyone on board did as they wished when we docked. We like to stop at churches where ever we go and both have great churches to visit. We also decided to stop and have gelato in Amalfi and lemon sorbet served in a huge locally grown frozen hollowed out lemon in a little shop right down on the water front in Positano. Most people in this area of Italy speak some English, so it is very easy to shop and to ask questions. We would do this again. Thank you
