“Absolutely cannot say enough about this incredible tour. After three weeks in Italy, this boat trip was possibly the single best thing that I did. Stunning views between Mt Vesuvius, the coastline, cliffs and castles, and then of course Amalfi, Ravello and Positano. I think I took more pictures this day than the entire rest of my time in Italy. Other reviews mentioned the long time riding on a boat with hard seats (I brought a seat cushion from my Airbnb!), but you don’t mind because what you’re seeing is blowing your mind. For the tour guide part of it, Gennaro was awesome and kept us together on schedule— really…”

“We had terrible weather for our visit to the Amalfi wet and stormy. We came from Naples on a small boat, the swell was so bad we couldn’t even dock in Positano. The Amalfi township was quaint, pricing targeted at tourists which was expected. Tour operator didn’t really provide clear instructions, there was no welcome and there was no safety briefing knowing the weather they were expecting. We had to console another traveller who was terrified, the tour guide didn’t even bother to check on her. The crewman though was considerate and attentive.”

Join Valeria, Nico, or a fellow local guide for a three-hour cruise from Molo Rugiada. You’ll circle Castel dell’Ovo, pass grand seaside villas, stop to swim and snorkel near Villa Lauro, and share a seafood aperitif aboard a small boat for up to six people.

“Genuinely the favorite activity/tour that we did in our entire week long trip to Naples & Capri. Exactly the kind of boat tour I was looking for with a super informative guide, ample time for swimming, beers/shower on board, and left the tour friends with the entire group!!! Valeria and her partner were sooo incredible, leading us to a beautiful Roman bath through a cave, letting us swim as long as we wanted, which ended up making the tour much longer than advertised!! They even accommodated for my friend who doesn’t know how to swim well so she could come into the water with a flotation device!!! Best tour ever!!!!…”
