We just got back from another wonderful trip to Sicily, but what made this visit even more special was the half-day cruise we took on the Blue Diamond. Our hosts, Graziella and Soro, are truly special people who make you feel completely at home on their beautiful boat. The homemade lunch prepared by Graziella featured delicious regional specialties and was absolutely delightful. We’ve been to Taormina many times, but had never experienced it from the water before, and the coastline is filled with glorious sights. Graziella is very knowledgeable about her hometown and provided just the right amount of historical information as we cruised along. One more thing that made the experience unforgettable is that Graziella and Soro are not only a warm and loving couple, but also wonderfully musical. Their music and singing simply transport you away and add such a magical touch to the entire cruise. I highly recommend the Blue Diamond for anyone looking for a wonderful boating experience in Taormina.

Best boat trip in Taormina! Graziella and Saro are wonderful, warm and knowledgeable hosts. The boat is luxurious, the lunch was a delightful spread of local Sicilian dishes prepared by Graziella, and the whole day was relaxing and fun. We can’t wait to come back!

Wow…just wow! I’ve been on many tours/excursions around the world and this is one of THE BEST we’ve experienced! The husband/wife owners and operators of the boat are natives to the Taormina area which makes them experts on all points of interest. The boat was BEAUTIFUL and very clean. Graziella and Saro (co-owners/captain and hostess) were very warm and welcoming and not only educated us on the area as we cruised by points of interest but also made the day on the water so relaxing. The spread of appertifs and Prosecco were top notch. I wish we could come back to this beautiful place again…I would definitely recommend this boat tour company. A+ all the way! So much better than most of the corporate boat tour companies in the area.

FANTASTIC way to see Taormina’s beautiful coast! Our hosts were absolutely fantastic- they showed us all the highlights of the area, gave us time to swim and that was followed by a beautiful spread of aperitifs back on the boat. An added bonus was going away from the coast a bit to find a pod of very playful dolphins who put on a show for us! Timing coming back into Naxos was perfect to watch the sun set over Mt Etna. Highly recommend this tour as part of your Taormina trip!

It was the most amazing experience!! My highest recommendation. The boat was very clean and comfortable. The lunch was sumptuous and a lot more than expected. Graziella and Saro were wonderful hosts, offering great stories about the area. The beauty of the area is unique and this boat was the best way to experience it.

Excellent tour! Great care for my young kids and very insightful information. Wish we booked a longer tour! 3hrs is too short and should have booked a full day!

The back drop is the bay of Naxos, so we’re starting with a 10/10. However, from the first handshake to the good bye hugs you are welcomed into the family and onto Blue Diamond by Graziella and captain Saro. You will read the reviews, and it is all true. I think what makes this trip so special are the people, beautiful food and exquisite boat. We had a private tour with plenty of interesting facts and history coupled with a perfect day. This was the last day of an 18 day trip and by far the best day we have had in Sicily. A memory-making trip. Thank you Saro and Graziela!

This was our favorite part of the trip!! The boat is absolutely GORGEOUS, but what’s makes this experience so magical is Graziella and Saro. They are beautiful people and make everyone feel welcomed. I have never seen so many dolphins in my life, absolutely incredible! Thank you so much Graziella and Saro for this unforgettable memory!!

My husband and I recently visited Sicily - particularly Taormina, at the beginning of September 2025. He surprised me with a private tour on the Blue Diamond, which turned out to one of the biggest highlights of the trip for us both! The boat was immaculate and absolutely beautiful. Saro and Graziella made this experience an 5 star experience from start to finish. Graziella shared so much of the history of Sicily on the tour, which was fascinating. They spoiled us on this tour. It was truly one of our most favorite things we did on this vacation. Lunch was amazing - there were some dishes that were homemade and we loved that part! Saro and Graziella were absolutely fantastic hosts, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. We will 100% revisit Sicily and when we do, we will ONLY book The Blue Diamond. THANK YOU SARO & GRAZIELLA! See you next time, Ciao!
