Swim in hidden coves, savor a Caprese sandwich, and toast the day with homemade limoncello

Customer Reviews
This was a mighty day, from 9.30am till 6pm we were treated so well. Drinks and a stop for a dip in the ocean, the on to Positano for a hour or more to see this great town. Back on the boat and had lunch at a restaurant, (that you can only get to on boat) and had the best pasta dish of my life. The manager of the restaurant was crazy and music was blearing, the atmosphere was unreal! We paid for this meal, ourselves, worth every penny.. back on the boat for Amalfi, another great wee town with a beautiful church! Spent over an hour here then headed for Sorrento again, stoped for another dip (40mins) and explored a few caves/coves.. then set for home! The Captain and his helper, can’t mind his name ( we just called him V).. lols we’re both very accommodating, beers when ever you wanted and few shots of lemoncello at the end! Met lovely people also on the trip, a Scottish couple , an English couple a group of American people and a French couple also, 12 of us in total and all really nice, we hand a ball.. Think it cost $350 for the full day, but I’m telling you it was £ well spent, in me and my wife’s opinion.. overall I give it 10/10! Highly recommend.. ciao!!
Vincenzo and Bruno were great, we loved the day!
The tour was lot of fun and very well organized, Marco (guide) was great energetic and eloquent. Definitely worth it!!
