5.00Captain Gaetano made this trip both relaxing and fun. He gave us a smooth and safe ride, while translating history about the landmarks for all of the passengers’ languages. The music he selected started with romantic classics then he switched to party tunes when we kept going. The fruit provided was delicious, the prosecco toast was exciting, and the views were breathtaking. Would recommend this experience to everyone!
