Super recommended! Wonderful! - If you want to take an excursion starting from Ortigia this is the best. There is a lot of excursions, tours and excursions to every corner of Syracuse and over the years I have tried several. This is undoubtedly the best! Sebastiano and his team are professional and passionate! They will introduce you to places that you could not otherwise reach accompanying you with the love they themselves have for those places. Competitive prices, friendly atmosphere. Thank you!

Excellent all round, sailing and snorkelling in beautiful scenery - Excellent trip, scenery and snorkelling were amazing. Captain and crew were very considerate and safe. Sailing back into Ortigia as the sun set was beautiful and serene. Highly recommend

On board the "Perseid" - The crew of the Perseide, composed of the enthusiastic captain Sebastiano and his competent son Diego, immersed us in an atmosphere of joy, curiosity and culture of the landscape, accompanied by the sound of the sea and wind. This experience, although brief, embellished our trip to Syracuse, a meeting place between sea, Greek and Baroque, with an unforgettable and pleasant memory.

I gave myself as a gift - For years I wanted to give myself a boat ride in Syracuse and as soon as I had the time I allowed myself this experience made fantastic by Sebastiano and Silvia and their team. I'm just sorry I couldn't take pictures to remember but the places visited are well impressed in my mind.Thanks

Trip that you will not forget - Great experience. If you want to take a boat tour with experienced staff and pleasant company, choose Sebastiano, Silvia and their team. They will take you to magical places, difficult to explore by land.

What a terrific way to... - What a terrific way to spend an afternoon. Sebastian and his son were wonderful hosts. Snorkeling in the caves was an amazing experience and the slow pace on a sailboat was a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. Seeing Ortigia from the water gave us an entirely different perspective of the island. Thanks again for a wonderful day.

Sebastian & Diego gave us a magical tour - My partner and I booked the trip with Sebastian and Diego after quite a lot of research and safe to say, the research paid off! We felt safe, looked after and had to most amazing time visiting the coast of Plemmirio and going snorkelling around a quiet cove and venturing into a sea cave. We also had a wonderful discussion about their passion for the sea, Sicily and sailing, all framed with beautiful views of Ortigia and the Sicilian coast. I would wholeheartedly recommend this trip to anyone looking to see the most magical side of Syracuse/Ortigia

Highly recommended - Lovely boat trip with experienced and friendly skipper Sebastiano and his son Diego. I didn’t want to snorkel so Sebastiano took me in the rib to view the caves, then my partner had severe cramps when snorkelling so Sebastiano got him out of the water quickly and safely with no fuss at all. A great family business where experience shines through and a beautiful boat with a stunning landscape. Highly recommended.
