Excellent experience on the Green Boat - We had a great experience on the Green Boat with Captain Brian. He took us to all of the towns and villages along the Portofino Coast and we had an opportunity to swim and snorkel in multiple spots. The boat is in excellent condition and was perfect for a family of six although could comfortably accommodate more people. Brian is a local (from Santa Margherita Ligure) and has great perspectives to share about the area. He owns the charter company and the boat and takes great pride in providing a first-class experience. Would highly recommend.

Gorgeous afternoon on the coast - Brian was a fabulous skipper & tour guide! Absolutely amazing afternoon on the boat! The views were phenomenal, the boat was incredibly comfortable, and clean. Brian went the extra mile and had bottles of cold water, fresh towels, and snorkeling masks. Every detail was thought out and he had lots of interesting details about each place we visited. Thank you for an unforgettable day!

We had an amazing time!... - We had an amazing time! The boat was the perfect size for our family of 5 (with adult kids). Brian was a fantastic captain showing us points of interest and finding the good swim spots. These towns are so charming and the perfect backdrop for a swim in the sea. One of our favorite experiences!

Remarkable time with Brian on the Ligurian Sea. - How could we ever have known how fantastic this would be?? Brian is a remarkable skipper and guide, for starters, but something special happens when you’re out on The Green Boat on the Ligurian Sea. Wow. We’ll never forget our tour of the Portofino Peninsula. Ever. That’s how great our afternoon was. Thanks to Brian for everything. 😃🇮🇹♥️🎶

Beautiful views and a great captain - Picked us up with a brand new boat. Our captain was amazing and so friendly! We had to switch the date last minute because the weather wasn’t good and they were so accommodating and nice and about it. Very helpful! We listened to music, went in the water for a bit and saw where all the huge celebrities have beautiful homes. Really pretty views everywhere. Recommend it!

Amazing Experience - The boat was gorgeous and Brian our captain had the best personality! He showed us so many pretty views. It was honestly my favorite thing we did during our 10 day trip to Europe. The boat was super clean and nice. Awesome experience.

Best boat in all of Portofino - Wow! Brian was absolutely amazing. Could not have asked for a better day on the Ligurian coast. We had an amazing lunch at a special Trattoria he picked and we were able to see the Cristo degli abissi in the beautiful clear blue water snorkeling. Brian is hands down the best choice in all of Portofino. Choose Green Boat!

More than just a boat trip…a life experience! - Everything was perfect! Michela’s organisation of the day and booking. Constant updates on weather and timings. Brian the ultimate host! Knowledgeable, professional and entertaining. Boat was top notch and very comfortable. Tour was geared to what we wanted to see and there was no pressure of time. Our daughter’s birthday could not have been better spent. Thank you Brian and Michela. Great team!
