The excursion with Alcione Boat was one of the most beautiful experiences ever made! The tour of the island of Ischia by sea is accompanied by a very friendly team, attentive to the needs of all customers and always cheerful and friendly! They make you feel immediately as if you were at home, the feeling is that of not having just met but like having known each other for years, managing to unite all the passengers in one large group. Fun and feeling good all together is accompanied by delicious food, and a lot too !! In addition, the opportunity to admire the beauties of the island are also made various stops to be able to dive and immerse yourself in these wonderful waters. In summary, it is an excursion, an unforgettable experience, I highly recommend it to everyone and I can't wait to be able to relive it!

Super organized! We decided on the outward journey at 10:45 am and the return journey at 5:20 pm. Since it takes a little more than 1.5 hours by ferry to Ischia, I would recommend taking the later ferry back at 7:45 p.m. We would have liked to have stayed longer because it was really nice. Everything worked without any problems. Lunch at the Baia del Clipper restaurant was great! Ischia is absolutely worth seeing! We went for a little stroll and swim. The beach is very nice, the water is very clear. All in all, a thoroughly successful trip!

Great tour! Amazing people, lots of fun. Definitely a must if you go to Ischia, best way to experience the color of the beautiful beaches of the island. The crew prepare on board one of the most amazing food ever tasted, follow by lots of wine, Prosecco and music… Fantastico!

Everything was well organized from the organization. Ischia is a beautiful island worth visiting. A reservation was made for lunch and this food was delicious with a great view of the water. All in all had a nice trip!

Awesome boat tour around both islands with a little bit of time on each to explore, see some key sights and get a bite to eat
