The perfect boat trip (2.5 hours including a stop in Portovenere). Our Captain was friendly and knowledgeable and provided a great sense of the history of La Spezia. Highly recommend this HopHop boat tour

Depending on the day, get ready for some big waves. The skipper was great and a skilled operator in the big waves.

Want to experience the Italian coastal lifestyle without the traffic and chaos? Why not explore it by boat! With your own amazing local tour guide! Fluent in both Italian and English for us linguistically challenged! A truly magical experience highly recommended for those looking for a glimpsecin to La Spezia history, culture and everything in between. Special thanks to Amos, one of the amazing Capitans and tour guides - solo travelling is often uncomfortable however his friendliness and warmth would make even the most shy and timid of solo travellers feel welcome!

This was a memorable trip on a RIB with our friendly and knowledgeable guide Nick. As well as a tour around the islands and outside caves, there was time for a swim off the boat for 10 minutes. Despite what other reviews have said, it was so easy to find the meet up on the promenade. Portovenere was great though could have done with more time as an hour was too short by the time you get your bearings. Time enough for drink or ice cream there but not food. Such fun on a hot day.

We ended our stay at La Spezia with an afternoon trip, included a welcome swim. It was great value for the price and the skipper was full of local knowledge.
