Awesome trip
Published on Oct, 2024
The tour was very nice. The guide took us around to see many sites and talked to us about the history of what we were seeing. The boat was small but very comfortable. They played some music for us too. We were dropped off at Porto Venere for about an hour which was just enough time for us to walk to the church and grab a quick cup of pesto pasta with potatoes and string beans from one of the small shops (it was a shop that sold pretty much just pesto and this pasta no drinks). The experience was well worth the price and would definitely recommend.
Portovenere and island tour
Published on Oct, 2024
Boat ride was very comfortable and the boat captain was knowledgeable and attentive to the passengers. The La Spezia harbor is sheltered and comfortable if you are unsure of you sick sickness.
Highly recommended for future visitors.

Our Favorite Area!
Published on Jul, 2024
We enjoyed a pleasant boat ride past the locations listed. Our guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The four hour stop at Porto Venere was wonderful! This was a beautiful town with historic sights and a small beach. This was our favorite stop on our Italian journey. I was traveling with family. I do not have teens but there wasn’t a better option to choose.
