    Luca was a wonderful skipper!! He was very accomodating and ensured our safety and made sure that we have a great time. He showed us around the gulf of poets and we even booked fishing with him at an extra cost. We managed to catch quite a few fishes and stopped in two places for a swim. One of our best experiences in Cinque Terre!!!

    Leonardo and Luca were the best two skippers and hosts we could have hoped for. They accommodated for all of our needs, even bringing ice and cups for our drinks when we forgot the. The boat was spotless and their knowledge of the area made the trip more than worthwhile. If you’re in La Spezia, you MUST take a trip with them!

    Leonardo's immediate communication, with informative accuracy as where to meet and what to expect and bring along made the booking and arrival a breeze. Luca our skipper was an exceptional guide. Patient, trustworthy, informative and fun. He was happy to go at our pace and seemed to enjoy the trip as much as we did. We can't praise them both high enough. The boat could not have been better either. A blissful experience.
