Christian and his father Giovanni were responsive and hospitable. They reside in Lipari and know every inch of the Aeolian Islands. They served Prosecco and fresh fruit. Their wooden boat is charming and we felt very safe despite some winds later in the day. We went snorkeling in turquoise Mediterranean waters and saw magical volcanic rock formations. One of the best memories of our vacation!

Best experience on Lipari. Giovanni is knowledgeable, welcoming. You can book him with your friends and be alone on the boat (a lot of boat companies in Lipari overpack). You can confidently book!

Beautiful tour of Lipari! Lovely wooden boat with spots to lounge and lie down. Christian was an excellent skipper! Gorgeous blue water! Definitely recommend as you can see places you can not see on foot. Amazing!

What am amazing outing! Giovanni and his daughter Lucy were the best guides we could have had. They took us to some absolutely beautiful locations for swimming and snorkeling, (including accommodating a request for a detour to see the faraglioni, a stop in a secret grotto with the most stunning blue waters, and a beach break for an incredible lunch). We were so sad to end the day and will book time with them on future trips to Lipari.

This was truly an unforgettable experience. Captained by Giovanni and assisted by Christian - my parents and I and my partner saw the beautiful sights of Lipari and Vulcano, to celebrate my mum’s special birthday. The tour saw us stopping regularly to snorkel at private, stunning locations. We stopped for lunch on Vulcano at a perfect little restaurant where Christian recommended the best dishes for us to try. Giovanni and Christian are so lovely, knowledgeable and experienced- their wonderful energy and sense of humour made this special day even more special for us. I could not recommend this experience enough - if you have the chance to experience the aeolian islands this way, take it!

Amazing experience, boat Tour around Vulcano with stops to swim and snorkel. Drinks and prosecco on board. I couldn't ask for a better relaxing experience.

I had the most wonderful day with the lovely Giovanni and Christian. The boat was absolutely beautiful, very comfortable, and equipped with towels, snorkel gear, fresh fruit, cold water and even aperitif! We went to all of the best hidden gem locations around the island, and I swam in the most beautiful water I have ever seen. We were given ample time for snorkeling, sun baking, and sight seeing, making for such a relaxed atmosphere. I couldn’t stop smiling all day. 10/10, I would recommend to anyone. Thank you so much!

Wow what a day . A fabulous family business that delivered far above expectation. Monika made booking easy and communicated via whats app with us. Christian and Alexandra were the perfect hosts and served the most delicious Prosecco with fresh peach. Well done 🙏👍

Amazing experience! Giovanni was the perfect host, took us to all the best spots and taylored the tour for us.

Giovanni showed us beautiful caves and took us surprisingly close and we loved every minute. By the end of the trip Giovanni felt like family and the day was perfect. Monica was very communicative. We cruised, soaked up the sun, and swam in the beautiful Mediterranean.

Father & Son business. Excellent private boat tour of Lipari, they'll go wherever you want to go, and pick you up whenever you'd like. The boat is shaded (+ a sun-deck) and they provide refreshments/prosecco. Only ~3hrs (most of the other tours take all day) - perfect if you want to go swimming for half the day, and do something else in the afternoon or morning.

Our boat trip was beautiful, enjoyable, laid back. It is a real treat to go hopping between islands on a small boat. The sea and landscape along the way was spectacular. Both Gozzo and Giovanni (the captain that day) were lovely. Only two of us on the boat that day, very nice.

The captains (father and son) were very welcoming and kind. They were ponctual and the meeting point was easy to find. On board, we could find nice towels for us and a basket of fresh fruit. They even offered us prosecco! We snorkeled at 4 different locations around the island and it was absolutely stunning. The tour lasted a good 4 hours. The son, Christian, grabbed some fresh mussels for us! Overall we absolutely recommend this tour, it was the perfect day!

Pros: 1) We enjoyed the day on the water. 2) It was nice to have only 8 on the boat. 3) Fresh fruit and water were provided. 4) The first two swimming spots were located in a pretty cove with fishes to watch. Cons: 1) The tour was advertised as having an English speaking guide. The guide didn't speak a word of English and didn't even attempt to try to include us. Another customer was kind enough to interpret some of the time. This was disappointing. 2) Getting in the boat was difficult. 3) The last two swimming spots were in not very pretty locations with nothing to see in the water. Overall, I enjoyed the day but didn't think it was worth the money. I would not do it again. There are several vendors selling tours on Lipari. You could probably find a less expensive tour.

We had a great day with the captain and his young assistant Lucy. Had good swims, stopped for a relaxed lunch then swam some more. We even had a Prosecco on board in between swims
