We had an amazing trip with Alessandro from Sorrento to Amalfi Coast (Amalfi and Positano). Everything was first rate. The real high point was Alessandro. Not only is he a great captain and very enthusiastic, but he took care of all of our needs during the course of the day and ensured we had a fantastic time. I would highly recommend this trip and especially request Alessandro!
Thank you Francesca and Dario for a brilliant day! We were met at the port in Sorrento and departed on time with a great group of people. Francesca pointed out lots of things to see along the way. We had just over an hour in Amalfi and Positano, two perfect swimming stops and a great meal at Il Cartuccio in Nerano. We also went into a cave and looked at the bright blue water and fish. The boat itself had plenty of space for the group size, and it was fun to play music on the way back to Sorrento! All in all a perfect day out. Thank you!
The super highlight of our 5 week Holiday Dario and Francesca were truly amazing sharing genuine stories and time with us . Our memories of this tour will always remain XXXX
We had an amazing time with MBS Blue Charter. The boat was safe and well equipped and our crew was awesome. Fernando the guide and Andrea the pilot were legit. They were both very serviceable and friendly, and Fernando does a great job at keeping you entertained with his great personality and great insights to local history and culture. Sincerely, good dudes. Free drinks of all sorts, and fresh fruit. We left Sorrento at 9, and cruised past Capri and some other small islands and then stopped off at Almafi for an hour and a half. We then cruised over to Positano, where we had an hour and a half. Beautiful coastline. Fun stops. Almafi has a lot more as far as shops and restaurants. Positano is a little less busy. We didn’t have time to do much other than wander around downtown and walk up just a little bit. Be sure to visit “Panza” on Almafi. They have an amazing display of freshly baked goods! Lemon sorbet in a Holla out lemon is a must. They’re everywhere. After Positano, we cruised over to a quieter Cove and more secluded beach and we stopped there for an hour and they let us swim around. That was the highlight. The water is this amazing turquoise and is super clear and refreshing. We would easily book with these guys again! Don’t miss!
What a wonderful crew, Francesca and Dario if I remember correctly! We had the best time on this cruise!! We were able to see all these beautiful places…swim in the beautiful water… had some drinks and danced on the boat…. just had a wonderful time!!! Highly recommended to anybody who wants to have a beautiful experience on the Amalfi coast.
Frederica the host and Antonio the captain were amazing, weather wasn’t fab but they assured us all the way that we would enjoy and that we did… thank you both for making our day so special xx The views of Amalfi, Positano and the swim made it so special as we were celebrating two 50th birthdays x
We had a blast! Our skipper was captain Vincenzo and our first mate/activity director was Paola. Both were wonderful! We saw dolphins, Punta Campanella lighthouse, Amalfi Coast, Positano, then we stopped and went swimming and Capt Vincenzo brought us some homemade lemon cello, which was wonderful. Then we went to the Green grotto and saw the fish and after that we rode past Sophia Lauren’s house. Our last pause in our trip was a quick stop to see Vincenzo‘s house, which was beautiful. Vincenzo and Paola treated everyone very special. They passed out fruit, showered everyone off with freshwater after swimming and made sure we were aware of everything we were seeing and experiencing. I also want thank them both for helping my grandson. If you were planning a trip to Sorrento make sure you book a trip with MBSBLUCHARTERSORRENTO and ask for Captain Vincenzo and first mate Paola!
This tour was great! Positano and Amalfi were ok but the boat tour itself with Dario and Francesca made the entire trip. They were fun and entertaining. Excellent Capitan!
Francisco our guide and Rafael our captain gave us one of the best experiences of our lives! Fransisco was so entertaining and informative and took us to the best places on the coast. He even jumped in the water after my husbands hat fell in! The boat was absolutely gorgeous and they had it stocked with treats and drinks. I shopped around and you won’t find a better company that has the best boats, crew, and all at the best price! Don’t even think about booking with another company or crew! They were the absolute best!
Our boat ride from Sorrento to the Amalfi Coast was honestly unforgettable. From start to finish, the experience felt so special and personal. Francisco and Rafael were absolutely amazing, so welcoming, attentive & they really made the whole trip feel fun & effortless… The boat itself was the perfect size for a small group, which made it feel intimate and not overcrowded at all. We had space to relax, enjoy the views, and just take everything in. The drinks were great, always flowing, and added to the whole experience. The vibes were truly unmatched. Between the music, the scenery & the energy on board, it felt like one of those once in a lifetime moments you wish you could relive over and over again. If you’re thinking about doing a boat tour along the Amalfi Coast this is the one. Couldn’t recommend it more🥰 made the highlight of my birthday trip.
