We did a four hour trip with Susan and Mauro and absolutely loved it. Susan is an exquisite host, knows a lot about the history of the region and we felt very at home and comfortable on board. The weather was amazing and the whole trip sheer joy! The snorkeling was great fun and the little snacks provided in-between a... More

As fellow travelers have pointed out, Mauro and Susan are the best! They are fantastic hosts willing to share their knowledge of the area. I read about them in Trip Advisor and emailed them immediately. We opted for the San Vito-Zingaro-Scopello afternoon excursion which took 4 hours. Their boat was easy to find and we were instantly made to feel... More

A reservation by telephone was easy and the parking directions impeccable. Susan has a delightful and very polished story to tell in both English and Italian about a host of sights that we encounter on our trip from San Vito lo Capo along the cliffs and coves of the Zingaro Reserve to the turn-around point at the tonnara of Scopello....

An absolutely brilliant trip - so much more than expected. We were made to feel like valued guests of Susan and Mauro who were proud of and informative about all aspects of the trip AND they provided yummy snacks, coffee and vino. Exceptional value.

We spent a wonderful morning with Susan and Mauro, visiting the Riserva dello Zingaro. The boat is clean and perfectly maintained, the toilet immaculate. 12 persons is a perfect number to fully enjoy the experience. Few rules softly explained and there you go. The front side of the boat it's exposed to the sun and the glare from the sea.... More
