After boarding onto our speedboat from the port in Stromboli, I will take you onto a beautiful tour of the vulcan. We will pass by Ginostra, the other village of Island Stromboli reachable only by boat, where you can have a walk and enjoy the nice and relaxing atmosphere. In Stromboli, the dominant colour of the sea is neon blue, which becomes lighter, greener or more turquoise, depending on where you bathe. I will also bring you to some nice spots for swimming, snorkeling before we move towards the Sciara del Fuoco (Street of Fire). And finally, you will discover what "deep blue" means, in Strombolicchio! The best way to enjoy Stromboli, it is from the sea! and I will be glad to share my passion and knowledge about the island and the vulcan with you.

Inclusions: Private transportation

Exclusions: Snacks

Pasqualo and his team are absolutely amazing! So helpful and reliable. Our tour to the Sciara was absolutely the highlight of our holiday and I cannot recommend it enough. Sitting there in the little boat under the cover of darkness watching the eruptions was just the chance of a lifetime and one of the best nights of my life! We will definitely use Pasqualo again should we return to Stromboli. He is such a sweetheart! Thank you Pasqualo!

Fábio gave us a tour of the places where iconic scenes from The Godfather movies were filmed. It was just me and my Father so he tailored the tour to what we wanted to see and do. His English is excellent, super knowledgeable and explains things very clearly. We learnt lots and had a really good time. Took pictures for us, dropped us off for a few hours in Taormina for lunch then picked us up and took us to a few extra places to take some pictures before coming back down to Catania. He also recommended THE BEST pizzaria we've been to. Very flexible and offers all sorts of tours and trips, just let him know what you need/want! (sometimes even airport transfers) This is his company he is running with his colleague, and he was born and raised in Sicilly, so very passionate and loves his job. Would highly recommend to literally anyone who comes to Sicilly.

Leaving the mooring, the sailing begins towards Favignana. The first stop is Cala Rossa, maybe the most famous bay in Favignana. Here, left the anchor, the first dip of the day. Then, the rout continues to Bue Marino, characterised from deep blue waters and a tuff mountain face in the background. Moving forward, the blue becomes increasingly clear: Cala Azzurra, where you stop for a swim or snorkeling. The tour continues with a stop at Favignana’s port, where spend some time visiting the nice village or tasting a fresh ice-cream or a typical “granita” (ice flavoured with fresh or dried fruit).

Inclusions: All taxes, fees and handling charges, Beverages, Bottled water, Wine tasting, Use of Snorkelling equipment

We were recommended to Paulo by friends and they were right, we had an outstanding 2 weeks touring Sicily. Nothing was a problem, we saw all the sights, were accommodated in great hotels in ideal locations. Paulo had all the answers (and I had plenty of questions). His knowledge and abilty to explain was outstanding. The Merc was an ideal way to get around, Don't consider driving yourself it's hair raising, leave it to a professional. The agri stay was fantastic.

I booked this tour online and paid €60. When I arrived at the port I saw the same trip was €40 if bought there. I paid an additional 50%for the privilege of booking online!!! Also I had to pay an additional €2.50 City tax which wasn't notified. I contacted the company and they said it was tour operator costs - no refund. They said no one had complained before - I find that really hard to believe. Unless you like throwing your money away I'd suggest waiting until you get to the port. The trip itself is enjoyable and the islands are lovely. Under covid they, naturally can't provide snorkeling equipment but definitely bring your own. So worth it. Lunch was pasta with tinned tomato and slice of melon. Bottled water was a plastic cup with lunch. A good day out if you can get past the rip off.

Our driver met us from the airport no problems at all, he was so kind telling us on the journey all about Sicily , food, travel tips and showing us sights along the way. Really good comfortable service as the shuttle to San Vito was not in service due to the pandemic. Highly recommend
