Cinque-Terre-Bootstour ab La Spezia mit Snack und Getränken

First of all there was only 1 person operating the boat. We did not receive the excursion as described. Yes we passed by all 5 villages and Portovene. We stopped to get off for 1 hour at Monterosso. We had 2 swimming stops…the first was 20 minutes the last one was 30 minutes. Breakfast was take a pastry off a platter with no napkins or drinks. After our first swim stop we were finally offered a beverage(soft drink or beer). After our stop in Monterossa, the skipper left a tray of stale focaccia and offered another drink…this time no beers were left.No wine or aperitif was offered as advertised. No safety instruction or life jacket location was described. Our Skipper spoke very little to no english. She only told us the names of the villages we passed.2 people should be operating this excursion(as confirmed by other reviews). Seating was very uncomfortable. This excursion did not come as advertised.We feel like we were ripped off.

Aucune présentation faite par le capitaine, ni aucun commentaire. il a juste dit le nom de chaque ville quand on passait devant. c'était Gregorio alors que nous devions avoir "Denis". Visite en anglais/italien, nous étions 4 français et 4 italiens à bord et le capitaine n'a parlé qu'avec les italiens. il a quand même essayé de nous dire 2 mots en français mais aucune explication comme mentionné dans le descriptif. Pas de petit déjeuner comme mentionné également, mais un repas le midi servi par un autre bateau et avant ça, vers 11h, un bref apéritif avec un tout petit peu de foccacia coupée pour 8 personnes. 3 arrêts baignades au lieu de 4. Mais le pire dans tout ça c'est que les italiens se moquaient de nous, avec le capitaine qui passait son temps à fumer des cigarettes avec les autres. Quand on a fait le stop d'1h à Monterosso, les italiens sont restés entre eux pour aller se baigner et sont revenus avec une pale du bateau tordue. Déçus de l'expérience et de l'accueil à bord.

DANGEROUS & UNPROFESSIONAL – STAY AWAY! Our group paid €600 for a nightmare. The tour started 30 mins late. The boat hit a concrete dock (on the pier camera), and the captain later accelerated into a large wave, completely flooding the boat. Passengers suffered head impacts, severe arm hematomas, and broken nails. A child was traumatized, crying for the remaining 5h and one guest left early out of fear. The flooding destroyed our iPhone, 2 power banks, IQOS, cables, and cigarettes. Pre-confirmed snorkeling gear was missing. Ruined by flood food wasn't replaced, so we didn't eat anything, and prosecco ran out in 1 hour. Zero guiding was provided. The crew made rude comments about us in Italian, not knowing we speak it. When asked for a refund, the operator denied everything and threatened us with legal action for defamation, despite us having photo/video proof. Zero safety, ruined belongings, and total disrespect. Avoid at all costs!

Notre guide Omar était certes gentil mais plus intéressé par fumer des cigares, regarder son téléphone ou nager que donner des informations intéressantes. Le tour en bateau quant à lui peut être agréable par mer d’huile mais la moindre houle le rend très inconfortable. La nourriture proposée (petit déjeuner sans café ni thé et focaccia) est aussi de mauvaise qualité. D’autre part, pas d’eau douce pour se rincer : ils n’avaient pas fait le plein !

La verdad esperaba más de la actividad. Para empezar, nos dijeron que nos esperaba alguien llamado Andrea q nunca llegó ni respondió los mensajes de WhatsApp que le enviamos. Las personas que estaban en el bote que finalmente vino a buscarnos si bien, le pusieron onda, no tenían idea de lo que es una excursión guiada, no sabían quienes habían reservado la actividad no tenían una lista de participantes ni qué datos era necesario solicitarnos. En segundo lugar la comida, el desayuno que dice proporcionar fui incompleto no brindaron ningún tipo de bebida. Lo otro (almuerzo) realmente fue un tentempiés, no más. Espero que estas observaciones puedan servir para mejorar el servicio que dice ofrecer la actividad.

Very good! Everybody enjoyed their day in the family. A full day was perfect to see several Cinque Terre villages not in a rush. The small boat transport was definitely a great way to see everything without being in more people packed areas as well. We had time to visit nice spots to swim (almost alone), remote bays/rocky beaches and plenty of fishes. We also had a great group and perfect warm weather. Safiya (translator/coordinator) and the captain were also quite nice. 4.5/5 overall (minor comments left to organizers to improve further the experience).

We departed from the port, we passed by all the cinque terre and Portovenere too. We had three stops for swim and a stop in Vernazza for free time, and the last one was a surprise, the boat stopped so close to a very small colorful rock beach so we swam there and had a good time. Friendly staff, clean boat, good journey, we had a small group so that really helped, we didn’t have any explanation about the history, as you’d expect in a tour but I don’t really care about it anyways. Overall good experience and so value for the money, The only thing I would change would be to spend more time in front of the cinque terre to take photo and swim, but it was the perfect boat tour for me cause I was looking for one that stayed long time and spend it more swimming than visiting the cities, And they offered a plate full of biscuits for breakfast and in the end focaccias and a glass of prosecco. So nice of them.
