Fun, easy short boat ride around Ortigia. Captain/Tour Guide was funny and informative. Definitely recommend.
We book a private trip so we had the boat to ourselves. Our driver/guide was a nice guy and spoke fluent Italian and English. We stopped at 3 swim locations and chose to swim at two of them. Both were great and were only accessible by boat. The fruit and prosecco was a nice touch. Great time.
We had a great time with Ninni. He taught us so much about the history of the area. We enjoyed swimming and the Prosecco!
The meeting point from port was easily found using Google maps and the address provided. We walked there maybe 15 min walk. We were walked by a lady about 10-15 min walk then to the harbor marina. A short wait for our private tour with NINNI. He was strict on rules for our safety understandably, knowledgeable of history and would ask if we wanted to hear the history or not. We were offered 2different places to swim but we chose only one. The boat is simple but comfortable. The bowl of fresh fruit was for us along with knife and napkins. He served plenty of prosecco.. I would recommend this private tour for 2 couples rather than a ship excursion. We had plenty time before our tour to explore the shops and restaurants of Ortegia Island markets and streets.
We had an absolutely incredible experience on our boat trip in Syracuse! Carmelo and Gabriel were friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel right at home. They shared interesting stories about the coastline, and hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own. The views were breathtaking—crystal-clear turquoise waters, ancient sea caves, and the stunning Ortigia island seen from the sea. We stopped for a swim in a secluded bay, and it was like diving into paradise. They even offered us local snacks and a refreshing aperitivo on board, which made the experience even more authentic and enjoyable.
What an amazing and lucky enough to get a short notice boat tour of the coast with our great tour guide Ninni! The prize was amazing as well for a private tour (my husband and I) for 2hrs and we were able to swim and even received snacks and drinks. Definitely recommend!
Perfect gift for my wife! Friendly staff and fantastic tour We also made two bathroom stops and tasted a good prosecco with a great cutting board. Recommended and definitely to be redone. Thank you.
