This was an amazing experience! We were torn if we should book a private tour or group. We are happy we did the group because it was a lot of fun meeting new people from around the world! Stunning views, excellent boat ride! So much fun swimming in the sea. We chose 1 hour in amalfi walking around which was plenty and then went to a lunch and beach club! Very very happy with this experience!

We had the most incredible day on this tour. It was my husbands 40th birthday and we couldn’t have picked a better way to celebrate the day. Carlo our tour guide was fantastic, he was funny, made us feel so special and was very knowledgeable and taught us about the history of the area. We enjoyed beautiful swimming spots, lots of Prosecco, Aperol and Lemoncello and he took lots of photos of all of us. Highly recommend!

If I could I'd give it 6 stars. We had this activity recommended by a couple of friends and they were right to recommend it to us. Carlo was with us all day and he was amazing! Whatever we needed, we just had to ask him. He was very helpful and very friendly. Snacks and drink were included and unlimited. He even served us Proseco and Aperols! It was just perfect. There are 4 choices available to us during the day and the team takes care to mention that it is not a group decision, but for each person, so we really do what we try to do. We stopped several times to swim in places and it was magical. With the group we were, it was amazing. We saw fish at our feet, caves... Honestly it was a perfect day, we even had a 3 hour visit to Amalfi. It’s one of our most beautiful travel days. We will remember this for a very long time. Thanks again to the whole team Isabella and Carlo 🤗
