Fabulous choice of a trip to Capri with Francesca and Skipper Nello. The boat was great. The snacks Procseco and Limoncello rolls and crisps were very welcoming. Frances’s gave out lots of information about Capri. They played lovely romantic music. The crew even took photos while we posed. Although it was November we stopped for once couple to swim. 5 star Trip. Thank you.
Amazing trip!

We had an incredible time. Book this trip!!!! The boat ride is pure beauty in every direction. Francesca is sweet and very knowledgeable. A great host and guide. We enjoyed learning from her and her enthusiasm for the area she calls home. Noell as our Skipper? Incredibly skilled. We were continually impressed with the tight areas where he gave us an up close and personal view of amazing sights that we know we would not have otherwise seen. Amazing at his craft.
