What Our Guests Say
Our guests love us. Discover what they have to say about their experience.
Today I enjoyed a full-day private excursion with friends, and we had an absolutely wonderful time. Everything was perfect—from Captain Alfredo, who was exceptionally professional, kind, and attentive, to the beautiful boat tour itself. We visited several stunning spots, each with its own hidden gems to discover. The aperitif was excellent as well. If it were possible to give more stars, I would do so without hesitation. No negative notes at all—an experience we would gladly repeat.
A perfect day
A three-hour experience with Alfredo—simply outstanding. If you’re in Otranto, this is an absolute must (not just a tour, but a true experience), featuring breathtaking landscapes, crystal-clear waters, unspoiled locations, music, and a generous, delicious aperitif. The cherry on top? Alfredo’s warmth and friendliness, welcoming us and guiding us throughout the entire journey. Highly recommended.
A Unique Experience
Dear Alfredo and Rossana, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the tour. It is truly difficult to find the right words to express our gratitude for the care and kindness you showed us. You should be very proud of your work. Our immense appreciation goes to you and your gracious wife. May God bless you both. Warm regards from Brazil.
