Four hour boat trip of the area.

Our boat trip was lovely. We did a private four hour charter. I think the boat was beautiful and the scenery was beautiful. I expected more from my guide such as history and facts about the local area, but it was basically a taxi…. My children who are 17 and 24 felt that it was very appropriate and enjoyed the silence but my husband and I feel like we paid a very steep price and wanted a little bit more interaction in history with the driver who was a local and likely had plenty to share, but chose not to..

Operator response

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beauty of the boat, the stunning scenery, and that your family had a relaxing time on the water. It means a lot to us that your children appreciated the peaceful atmosphere of the experience. At the same time, we truly appreciate your comments regarding the level of interaction with your skipper. Every member of our team has a different personality and naturally adapts to what they perceive each group may prefer. In your case, it seems our skipper chose a more discreet approach, while you were hoping for a richer experience with stories, history, and local insights. Your feedback is extremely valuable, and we will certainly share it with our team. We always encourage our skippers to engage with guests and are happy to tailor the experience whenever possible. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future and providing an even more memorable experience that exceeds your expectations.

Best value for short trip with kids

Really good value compared to other boat tours I saw on TripAdvisor. We have kids so we didn’t want a 4 hour tour. The guide hits all the major spots and stops to explain on the way out to the underwater statue. Then you get time to snorkel which the guide maximizes by returning fast

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted that you and your family enjoyed the experience and found it to be a great value. We designed this tour to be the perfect option for guests who want to discover the beauty of the Portofino coast without spending an entire day on the water. We're also happy to hear that you appreciated the guide's explanations and the time dedicated to snorkeling at the Christ of the Abyss. We hope to welcome you and your family back on board for another memorable adventure!

Rip-off

Viator continuously sent daily reminders of our upcoming boat tour to Portofino and points beyond. The night before our booking, long after we'd gone to bed, the tour operator sent a message (in a language I couldn't read without a translator) saying something about 'bad weather would prevent the tour from happening'. There was no bad weather, it was beautiful, the sea was like glass and 3 other boats the size ours was supposed to be took off from the same departure point. As this was the first day on the ocean section of our vacation, we were very disappointed. I thought Viator had vetted the tour providers. We came all the way from the desert in Arizona to experience the ocean on the Italian Riviera only to find that planning ahead to ensure our experience was just what we were after was a rip-off. It's better to just show up at the destination and book it yourself. It would have been 3 times cheaper, too.

a tour and a girl

I took part in a boat tour organized by the team where Gaia works, and I must say that it was really one of the best moments of my summer! She was professional, sunny and always careful to make us feel comfortable. The tour was well organized, with spectacular stops, crystal clear waters and postcard views. I absolutely recommend this experience to anyone who wants to experience the sea in an authentic and relaxing way. And if you are lucky enough to have Gaia... you will be in great hands!
