Details
Gather your friends and family and spend an unforgettable day at sea with our private RIB boat trip! You have the choice between two itineraries, one going to the picturesque villages of Cinque Terre and the other to the Gulf of Poets and Porto Venere.
If you choose the first itinerary, we will navigate along the western coast of the Gulf of Poets until we reach Porto Venere and pass through its impressive strait. We will stop for a refreshing swim under the stunning church of Saint Peter, in a little cove with crystal-clear waters. Next, we will cruise along the five colourful villages of the Cinque Terre. You can decide in which village to stop for a break and explore the bustling streets that characterize these small villages. After navigating along the Cinque Terre, we will return to La Spezia.
Our second itinerary will show you the beauties of the Gulf of Poets, starting from La Spezia and navigating along the western coast. After seeing all the little fishing villages, we will arrive at Torre Scola, a tiny fortress built on a rock in the sea, and then start navigating around the three islands of the Archipelago of Porto Venere: Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto. We will then have a look at the incredible village of Porto Venere, and stop under the scenographic church of Saint Peter for a refreshing swim. Our itinerary continues to the other side of the Gulf, reaching the ancient town of Lerici and its castle, once used as a prison. After another swimming stop, we will head back to La Spezia.
Both itinerary options include the use of our inflatable sunbathing platform during the swimming stops, to enhance the comfort of your experience. Our local skipper will be happy to share their knowledge of the area with you, so do not hesitate to ask questions!

Our boat Captain Alessandro was best. I brought my parents to Italy as a retirement/anniversary gift and this private tour of the gulf of poets was definitely the highlight of the trip . They can't stop talking about this tour over the many tours we took in the two weeks we were here. The sights were incredible and the towns visited were so picturesque and fun to explore. This tour felt less touristy and the places we visited weren't crowded with people. Alessandro made great recommendations and made the tour so memorable. He recommended great picture spots and we had the best gelato ever thanks to him. He also made great recommendations for our stay in Florence. My mother shed tears of happiness from the wonderful time and beauty she saw. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. I'm so glad I ended up booking this tour.

We experienced a fabulous tour around Cinque Terre, all 10 of the family and our small dog thoroughly enjoyed the day. Our skipper Nicola was fun, full of information and made our boat trip a unique fun-filled experience. When asked what the highlight of their 2week holiday was, each of the 4 children and teenagers said it was the boat trip...true testament!
