awesome boat tour! - This tour was excellent - we were with a few other guests (was truly 8 max) and visited the Almafi Coast. The tour got cut short a bit due to thunderstorms, but the crew was great, bringing us more drinks and telling us some history about the area. highly recommend!

AMALFI BOAT TOUR Small group - Our boat trip from Sorrento to Amalfi and positano with time for swimming and cave experience was amazing. Our captain maneuvered the boat with ease and Pasquale made us aware of the history along the coastline. Couldn't ask for anything more to make our experience a memorable one for all of us.

The Bruce Family - The best day ever! We met Alessandro and Sergio at the Sorrento Marina to begin the adventure. We got on the boat around 730 heading to Capri enjoying a beautiful sunrise and music 🎶. The Blue Grotto did not disappoint. It was amazingly beautiful. A must experience. Afterwards a trip to Capri, shopping, a wonderful lunch at Lo Scoglio delle Sirene then back to the boat. We stopped to swim. Another must experience. Our crew was so fun, fresh fruit and toasting to day. Magnificent! Thank you so much for the brilliant day!🩷 Tom, Tami, Caylie, Cole, Brooke and Blair 💕

Wonderful visit around Amalfi and Capri - Had a wonderful day trip on a beautiful vessel crewed by Alessandra and Captained by Rafael (think so...). The boat was professionally handled by the young Captain who, despite minimum English, handled the boat professionally as well as handled my music requests on Spotify. Perhaps he let me handle the boat for a while (licensed USCG Captain) ....unless that's contrary to MBS a policy (then he didn't). Alessandra was a wonderful hostess, handling all our requests in English as well as helping with my faltering Italian while managing her responsibilities as our First Mate. Her help in handling local customs was much appreciated and we encouraged she and the Captain to visit the USA so we could share their hospitality. We boarded as customers and departed as friends....no higher compliments could be paid.

Great way to see the Amalfi coast - The trip was not exactly as planned or described, but we had a wonderful time. We got to visit Amalfi and Positano, go for 2 different swims, and see some beautiful coastline. My wife was hobbled by a bad ankle and they helped her in and out of the boat in a safe way. Enrico and Alphonso were really nice and helpful.

Best boat day in Amalfi! - We had the most amazing day. The captain and his son were so lovely and kind. Made a huge effort with everyone. Supplying us drinks all day and lunch. They gave us retail on everything we passed andhad a fabulous group of people. It’s absolutely worth the price. Our best day in Italy so far. Highly recommend

Beautiful scenery. Chilled day. - Great way to see the Amalfi coast, rather than stressful road journey. Beautiful scenery and great tour. Although we booked the boat for maximum of 8 people, when we got there, we were offered to go on a larger boat with 10 people instead. They offer a bottle of Prosecco or Limoncello for the change. Only con was we had to ask for drinks, they were not offered and we only had less than 1.5 hours at the stops, not 2hrs as stated. This was maybe because a group sharing the boat wanted coffee before, which delayed the start. Overall, it didn’t matter because we had a wonderful time. Kept the ciabatta for later and had lunch in Positano over looking the sea. Wonderful!

experience on the boat itself was good. Few aspects that weren’t so great - We had paid around £150 pp for the trip, max 8 people. However when we arrived at the meeting point, we were told we had been “upgraded” to a bigger boat but with more people. When chatting to the other people on the half it was very apparent that they most certainly did not pay £150. We didn’t receive anything to compensate for this change. In terms of the boat trip itself, it was lovely. Both captain and the other staff member were lovely. They couldn’t do enough for you. I left my dress on the boat, txt the company and no txt back!!

Disappointing for the price - We had a good day because how can you be sad in the Amalfi coast but the experience was disappointing. The ticket said it included wine, beer, soft drinks and a sandwich as well as snorkel gear. I did not see any snorkel gear (maybe a Covid thing?) and there was no Prosecco nor cups if they had a bottle hiding somewhere. The sandwich was good (tomato mozzarella). We were offered a spot to swim at the end across from a parking lot in Amalfi. Fortunately one of the other individuals asked “is this really the swim spot, across from a car park” and they took us to a much prettier spot. We shouldn’t have to tell them that. There were no recommendations once we got to Positano nor Amalfi for shopping or swimming or food. We had a “hostess” but aside from a very quick background there was no hosting. No offering to take photos and we were on a max 8 people tour. There was then a sign on the boat about hoping we enjoy our trip but dont forget the captain’s tip. We waited about 30 minutes to get into Positano so our 90 minutes there was cut to about 60. They could’ve given us more time as the tour said it took 8 hours and we were back in 7.5. I’m glad we weren’t on one of the big ferries to avoid crowds but I wouldn’t recommend MBS to someone I liked.
