Best Boat Tour with an awesome Skipper - This was the best tour we had ever been on! Sebastiano was an amazing skipper, tour guide and expert of the area. He was friendly, kind and provided us with much history of the land. We had an amazing time swimming at different stops and saw flamingos! He even recommended a lunch spot that was delicious. I can’t recommend this tour enough - Book it!

Great tour around Ortigia - Nice tour around the irrigation island, well organized. Small boat with shadow perfect for our family of 4. Trustworthy captain, the fruits and drinks were welcome. We would have loved knowing a few informations about the city and places we saw but it was difficult as the skipper only spoke Italian.
