5.00My girlfriend and I traveled from Miami for a week and booked a tour with Carlo. Carlo was such an amazing tour guide! He was very friendly and accommodating the entire trip and came prepared for anything we needed on the water. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to have a nice and private afternoon on the water with your loved ones. Thank you again so much Carlo! We will be sure to visit you when we come back again!
DONT THINK IT TWICE AND BOOK WITH CHARLIE FOR THE BEST EXPERIENCE!!

Unforgettable La Maddalena Experience with Carlo

5.00We had a wonderful trip to La Maddalena with Carlo. Carlo is a very kind and humble person — extremely helpful and cooperative throughout the day. He introduced us to the area, explained the geography and natural beauty of the islands, and even added a fun touch by making humorous comments about the rock formations, which he called fantasia. He took us to a truly fantastic swimming spot — honestly, it was the best swimming spot we have ever experienced in our lives. His boat was very clean, the ride was smooth, and the atmosphere felt both relaxing and enjoyable. Before the end of the trip, we also stopped at the center of Maddalena Island, as Carlo recommended. Exploring the town was very nice and gave us a perfect closing to the trip. The only downside was that the price felt a bit high, especially since TripAdvisor takes a big commission, which makes the overall cost more expensive than it should be. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, thanks to Carlo’s kindness and the breathtaking locations. Highly recommended if you want a memorable trip around La Maddalena.
Magical private boat tour with Carlo!

5.00Can't recommend Carlo and Charlie Sea Excursion enough! We did other boat tours on the Baunei coast throughout our trip, and this one was really special. Carlo grew up in Palau and took us to all of his favorite beaches and coves around La Maddalena and surrounding islands. He was so knowledgeable and had lots of fun tidbits of info to share about the rock formations and history. He also had snorkel gear and a paddle board for us to use which made the stops along the way that much better so we could explore at our leisure. Best of all, he had a cooler of beverages and a delicious Aperitivo spread of snacks ready to go. Truly above and beyond. His boat was in great condition and we felt safe at all times - he was really careful to warn of us any small waves from other boats and had all the required safety gear on board. He's also super communicative via WhatsApp - we had to reschedule our boat day due to forecasted high winds and he was so flexible and easy to deal with. If you want a magical day around the islands, book with Carlo!
Wonderful.

5.00My wife booked a private day tour with Charlie (aka Carlo) based on the positive reviews in TripAdvisor. We had high expectations and I’m very pleased to say he exceeded them. Charlie was a wonderful guide, showing us all the “must see” sites around Maddalena and surrounding islands as well as less crowded spots that the big tours don’t reach. And at one point we encountered a couple stranded with a trapped anchor and he valiantly attempted to free them, apologizing to us for the delay (we were happy to have a little more time at the little grotto with a hidden beach beyond a sea cave). He was unfailingly polite and never made us feel rushed. We enthusiastically recommend Charlie’s Sea Excursions to anyone visiting northern Sardinia!
A must do in Sardinia with a top guide.

5.00This was the highlight of our trip to Sardinia. We are a family of four and we booked the whole boat for ourselves. This gave us a lot of freedom to decide where to go and how much time we should spend at every location. Carlo was an incredible guide, very friendly, very knowledgeble, very good with kids and very mindfull of giving us private time whenever we needed it. Charlie helped put together a very nice trip that lastet for almost eight hours. He was also very flexible regarding the pickup and drop off point and making the logistics of the trip easier for us. The places we've seen can't be experienced through pictures or videos. They have to be experienced in person. Highly recommended.
The perfect day!

5.00Had the best day with Charlie on his boat, he took us to many secluded spots and some of the very popular spot too. We swam in the most clear blue water we have ever seen. We even saw dolphins! Thankyou Charlie for a day we will never forget!
Amazing Day !

5.00We had the best day with Charlie taking us around to all the beauty this part of Sardinia has to offer. The most amazing blue water, private little coves to relax , swim and have lunch. It really was a holiday highlight. Charlie is very knowledgeable and also relaxed alowing us to tske everything in at our own pace. Just remember to take plenty of sunscreen as not much shade on the boat. We highly recommend!!
