Domenico was our capitan and he is truly special. He made our boat ride more of an experience with a new friend than a boat tour and I mean that sincerely.
For context, I've worked with guides and contractors in different countries. I've taken teachers around the world so I've seen some good and great guides.
Domenico is one of the best that I've seen in action. If you have kids, he knows how to have a fun and safe time. We traveled with three kids all under 10 and felt very comfortable. In the off season, if I am not mistaken, he works as an educator and he really brings so much life and passion with him.
We visited a few different spots along the coast and really got a sense of what the areas look and feel like. He spent time explaining the terrain, the landscapes and some key points with some historical points too. Additionally, he has an incredible way of telling stories.
He is a local who truly loves showing off where he is from and you can tell that he loves it. He took us snorkeling and showed us the local wildlife, including sea urchins. If you want to taste one, he would ask and open one if you asked him.
He was always checking in with us and making sure everything was okay, including when there was a little bit of wind on the return.
He brought a couple of containers of snacks and some light, refreshing white wine with him which were great too.
