Wonderful experience - highly recommend! - Fabio was the best - he is so knowledgable and cares so much for the environment, it was a joy to experience his enthusiasm as we explored a couple of different coves including some incredible caves - one had the same lighting effect as the blue grotto on Capri! He dove down and brought up some super cool wildlife for us to see including different types of starfish, a sea cucumber, anenomes and even a small octopus, so cute and maybe the coolest thing I have seen up close while snorkeling anywhere!! I saw a huge octopus gliding along the bottom and many cool fish along the way as well. Loved it!!

Had a great time! - Had an excellent time with our tour guide Fabio. The energy, excitement and most importantly knowledge he brought, made for an incredible experience.
Sadly we weren't able to enter one of the Grottos but that was due to the presence of Jellyfish. Rather safe than sorry!
Awesome trip, amazing views grandios experience. Thanks!

The real deal! - Fabio the biologist is the most passionate you can get! I’m a (not marine) biologist and educator myself, i can certify he’s the real deal!

Great day in and on the water - Eugene (dive) and Fabio (snorkel) were enthusiastic and energetic! Great time diving and snorkeling. We booked beginner dive for son and snorkel for daughter and mother. They put us all on same boat, which was fabulous for the family. The beginner dive was great experience for son, as I joined as seasoned diver. Took time to teach without intimidating. Very enjoyable experience that will lead to him getting certification within next few months. The snorkel was laid back and intuitive. Everyone had a blast. Great time and highly recommend both!

Fun, affordable, family snorkeling - This is a fantastic diving company right in the heart of Sorrento. As a certified diver myself, we opted for the snorkeling option as we also had a child of 12 years. Fabio was our guide and made us all feel comfortable on the trip. His knowledge of the local ecosystem combined with his upbeat and fun personality really made this excursion memorable for my 12 year old son. Great day and well worth the money.

The Best Snorkeling! - This was amazing!! The water was clear and beautiful!! Fabio and Daniel were fantastic guides! Both were knowledgeable and did a great job taking care of a member of our party who was less than sure about spending time in the ocean.

A great half day out - Fabio our snorkel guide and the rest of the crew were amazing… friendly and knowledgeable, pointing out amd explaining sealife along the Sorrento/Amalfi coast. A highly recommended experience, especially if the weather is nice and calm, as it was for us.

Refund not offerred. - There are a lot of great reviews for this experience and we were really looking forward to it.' Chances are, it will be great for you and you will not experience what we did.
However, there was a rock slide on the road and we were unable to reach the activity (it would have been a 4 hour detour each way and we had no rental car). No refund was offered although the vendor was made aware of the situation. She said, "It wasn't fair to her."
When Viator was notified, they did not offer a refund either. We use Viator a lot, but, not sure we will in the future.
