Wonderful excursion!

Published on Sep, 2024

We had the best time swimming and snorkeling. The Prosecco was very nice and our guide was just fabulous! I will recommend this tour to family and friends.

Do yourself a favor and book this excursion!

We went on our honeymoon to Sicily we saw this trip through Viator and were NOT disappointed. It was easy to meet everyone and a short talk to the boat. Our captain was SO FUN! We danced and sang and got to swim longer than expected. We had a nice Prosecco toast to finish off. Gorgeous sights that you will never forget and you must do this while in Syracuse or nearby. Worth every penny!

A must do tour

Caves and swimming trip in Ortigia

Published on May, 2024

Really enjoyed our boat trip with Marco. The caves were beautiful and we had plenty of time for swimming in 2 locations. The sea is so clear to swim in and there are lots of sights to see.
