A La Spezia Must Do!!! - My family and were here for a cruise and had an incredible day with Marco and Laura. The team was highly accommodating (ensuring we would make it back to our ship on time), extremely knowledgeable and unbelievably kind. The lunch we had was delicious and spending the day on the water with great company was nothing short of incredible. In addition to our lunch, we had morning snacks, mid-afternoon bites and even a dessert! Not to mention the Italian wine was flowing. What a great day—thank you to the team and especially Marco and Laura!

Amazing day in cinque terre! - Excellent boat tour w Andrea! A great experience and the best way to see the five towns in the heat of summer. We rented out the entire boat for our group. Morning started a bit late due to the preparations in the bay for the air show the next day, but Massimo extended our tour time by an equal amount so no problems there and we had more time in the morning to get ready. He gave me the Google map coordinates to meet up in Porto Mirobello via WhatsApp, no issues finding it - just a short walk over the white suspension bridge and then over to the left. The day started with a platter of fresh fruit and water and a lovely cruise through La Spezia cove and around Portovenere. Great views of all the Cinque Terre towns from the sea. Stopped for a swim several times the water was perfect. Plenty of drinks - beer, Prosecco, sodas- and lunch was great, the two boats docked together for a group lunch. We also got to swim up to a waterfall and stand under it, and even up to a rocky cliff where one of our party did a cliff dive. Stopped in Portovenere for a short excursion on the way back. Highly recommend - everyone in our party loved this day and it was the highlight of our two week tour of Italy!

Perfect trip - Great day. Stunning views and our Captain and his first Mate are incredible guides. We learned so much about the history of the 5 island.

Beautiful - Great experience, super friendly staff, aperitif and excellent meal. Drinks at will, staff with little care.
A little difficult to find the meeting place, a maps link would have helped us not to circle in the port.
The only downside we could put is that we were 11 (+2 of the crew) so a little tight on the boat (especially for food).
But remains a very good memory and, luckily, the other passengers were also nice and we enjoyed it well.
FYI it is possible to park right next to the port, but relatively expensive (1€50 / hour, which made us 13€50 for the duration of the excursion).

Family Trip - We booked this charter during our stay in Cinque Terre. Massimo kept us up to date with weather conditions which unfortunately were not favorable for the day we booked. He was both ethical and honest regarding the quality of the experience due to the conditions. We had to cancel and received a full refund immediately. We will be sure to plan another excursion with massimo the next time we are in Cinque Terre.

Cinque Terre Boat Tour Needs Some Help - We had such high hopes for this tour and we were a little let down. The captain of the boat and his wife/friend were very sweet (but difficult to understand). The boat needed some work done to it and it was VERY SLOW. I realize there were some waves but the engine sounded like it was struggling. We had other boats pass us as if we’re were standing still. Unfortunately because it was so slow we didn’t really have much time to swim at either place we anchored and only a short time in one of the towns. The stuff we wanted to do was rushed and the ride was long. The food was good. The fresh fruit and Prosecco in the morning was delicious and the salad at lunch was wonderful. The pasta (red sauce because of the language barrier they did not understand my walnut allergy-some pestos made in the region use walnuts vs. pine nuts) was very spicy. I can’t comment on the pesto because I didn’t want to try it because of the allergy issue.
