Additional Information

Let’s set sail towards Ischia. After approximately an hour and a half of sailing, you’ll arrive at the island, greeted by the charming views of the Aragonese Castle, a symbol of the island and its rich historical past.
Ischia is larger than Capri, so exploring the entire island in a single day isn’t feasible. However, you can take a short tour through…

Location
Positano
Una volta raggiunta la spiaggia Grande, sulla destra si trova la banchina. Il punto di incontro sarà lo stesso dal quale partono gli aliscafi.

A memorable boat tour not to be missed 🫶🏻 - Every year we come to Sorrento and book our boat trip with Restart because they always make our boat tour experience so memorable. The captain/drivers are always so knowledgeable and friendly, taking you to special spots for beautiful scenery and photo opportunities. You can have a glass of fizz, beer or soft drinks and snacks whilst on the boat. I recommend to this company to friends, family and clients for their trips to the Amalfi Coast because it will take your holiday from a 10 to an 11! Shoutout to the wonder Giuseppe for our tour yesterday to Ischia (highly recommend to anyone that wants to visit this gem of an Italian island that isn’t too busy…yet!) Plus we also saw dolphins on our journey out 🥹🥹 5 ***** from Mr & Mrs Booth using you in our 3rd year!

One of the most wonderful times of our lives in Italy - Let me just start by saying that it was most one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life and I’ve been all over the world Giovanni made everything so personal he explaining things about every location, the history of such and what to expect and not to expect… I feel that we have become actual friends on an eight hour trip and he was the most thoughtful captain of a boat trip that I’ve ever experienced….. Always wanting to make sure that we have the upmost pleasurable positive experience on our trip and not to mention it was my 60th birthday. Which made it even better…. I would highly recommend this company not to mention the captain Giovanni, who will always make your day and your experience. Something of a lifetime. Again, I wanna thank you Giovanni for everything you’ve done for my wife and I yesterday it’s been one of the most amazing trips ever. Hope to see you soon your friend James, and Marci.

Perfect Day on the Amalfi Coast - Had the best day out on the Santa Rosa from Sorrento! Giovanni was an amazing captain—super friendly, great with the kids, and full of local knowledge. We skipped the Blue Grotto because of long queues, but loved exploring the Amalfi Coast instead and had a fantastic lunch at La Perla. Beautiful boat, stunning views, and a really fun, relaxed day. Highly recommend!

Spectacular private boat tour with Giovanni as our skipper. - I wanted a memorial day for my daughters and myself. They are adults and in our hectic lives, it’s a treasure when we can carve out time to enjoy each other. This was the perfect opportunity ! Giovanni picked us up at port in Capri and from there our plan was to spend the day in Ischia. The weather was amazing and Giovanni captained our vessel with such expertise. He gave us full range of our preferred music using our playlists. He told us this boat was ours for the day!! There were plenty to drink and the GROZZO 35 SANTA ROSA was so COMFORTABLE, SPACIOUS AND CLEAN! We lounged for the hour listening to our music while Giovanni headed to our destination. The ride over had breathtaking views. We arrived in Ischia just in time for lunch. Giovanni called ahead and made us lunch reservations at a delicious restaurant at the port. We then enjoyed the quaint town of Ischia for another 2 hours. What a TREAT!!! We headed back to the boat where Giovanni then took us to swim. The blue waters were so warm and clear. We could see to the bottom while we swam in front of the ancient castle!!! Wow. I could not believe the beauty our eyes behold. We then went to another swim location and Giovanni dropped the anchor into the clear blue water where it was a calm cove away from other boat traffic! He was so smart and really considered that we were women and rough seas would not have been enjoyable! We lastly headed back to Capri and as our final approach we were dancing and he stopped to boat to join us!!!! What an adventure. What a memory! What a day!! Thank you Giovanni and SANTA ROSA!!! If I could give more stars I would.

Trip to Capri - Incredible trip with captain Giovanni. He took our family of 4 all around Capri and showed us so many beautiful caves and a waterfall. I would highly recommend this trip. The boat was gorgeous and handled the big waves while my children 11 and 9 walked around to different areas of the boat. He catered the tour to what my children requested. Everyone in the family had a wonderful time and we weren’t ready for the trip to end.

The best way to really experience the Amalfi coast! - Had a fantastic trip with Capitan Giovani and Emilio! Both were experts and provided top notch service and knowledge of the coast and its secret areas. We were picked up from Amalfi then toured down the cost by all the cities and towns where we went just past Maiori. Saw waterfalls, caves, private beach. Then we cruised back to Positano hitting up all the sights on the way. Went into town grabbed lunch, hit up some local art shops and got a painting from a local artist. On the way back hit the secluded beach jump off the cliffs and relaxed all the way back to Amalfi! Outstanding boat trip and impeccable experience and service
