Gorgeous adventure - This tour was fantastic. The young woman (Anna), who helped us check in at the info desk was friendly and professional. Her English was excellent and saved the day! I had forgotten I had already paid for the excursion online. When I attempted to pay in cash, she noticed and return3d my cash with a smile. Giuseppe was a fun, kind, and skilled boat captain. He explained what we were looking at, played music he thought we would like and most of all, demonstrated remarkable compassion. My sister is a great cancer survivor. As such, she has no upper body strength. We didn't realize the challenge this would pose until she tried to climb up the ladder from the water. She had trouble pulling herself up and her muscles shook with exhaustion. Once back on board, I used my handy little AI translator to explain her situation. At the next stop, he wordlessly pulled the boat up to shore so she could easily climb up and down the stairs. He was so kind to us. My sister suspected I said something to him but he never let on. Overall, the boat tour was beautiful, fun, and relaxing. The boat is a smaller one so it wasn't crowded at all. Felt like a private tour! I definitely recommend it to all! ❤️

Beautiful. - It is the second time I go to Scilla for the holidays with my family and for the second time we did the boat tour with “scilla in barca”. Last year we did the 3h tour with skipper Pietro who told us the story of the fishing village, we saw the caves of Bagnara and took a swim. This year we did the sunset tour... beautiful. All accompanied by a small aperitif.

Beautiful afternoon! - We made this excursion yesterday.we embarked from lighthouse tower with a magnificent gozzetto captained by Francis and his wonderful “assistant”, little Mirko. In addition to the beauty of the excursion itself, between sparkle, wet Calabria and its caves, I want to emphasize the kindness and familiarity of Francis. Thank you very much we had so much fun spending an afternoon in joy and between wonderful places.Fantastic also the sunset aperitif with spritz and chips.A hug to little Mirko.

Nice morning out on the boat - Guides were great and they provided masks, floaties and a simple aperitivo. My only feedback is that I wished the boat went a bit faster and that we were able to stop for more swims. We only had two swim stops but saw many beautiful places.
