This was a fantastic way to see Cinque Terre from the sea! Edoardo was an excellent guide who shared many stories about the history and peoples of the region, including stories of his grandparents who were from this area. This was easily the highlight of our trip, many thanks to Edoardo and his team for providing such a wonderful experience.

My sister and I had a fantastic experience on this cruise. Our captain Roberto was delightful. We had the best vantage points of all five villages for photos. And it was a bonus to get to go snorkeling and swimming in the sea briefly. I highly recommend this experience.

Everything about Francesco and his team was incredible! We have been driving, touring Italy. We had scheduled this trip in advance, we were running behind of schedule due to unforeseen issues. I reached out to Francesco via Viator to ask if our tour could be rescheduled. He responded quickly with multiple dates and times that we could reschedule. Honestly, I expected that nothing could be done! When we arrived for our newly scheduled tour a day later, we felt as though we had known him for years! Francesco was friendly, charming and unbelievably accommodating! In addition, Dave our guide was knowledgeable, fun and had a great play list! Swimming in the Med is wonderful! Highly recommended Francesco and team!

It was lovely, tour guide was kind and provided interesting commentary about the region. The seas were rough today and a couple of our party got seasick. The guides were kind and helpful.

We had a wonderful time on the boat tour. Our guide was personable, knowledgeable and asked the group what our preferences were for swimming, shopping, etc. so nice to be with a smaller group. They provided a cooler as well.
