My partner and I had a wonderful time with GP and Arita. They were both so welcoming, easy to get along with and made it a top experience for us. We particularly enjoyed going to Cala Soraya, what I would say is one of the most beautiful beaches we saw in Sardinia as it's small but less crowded with clear blue waters.
The food served on the boat was delicious and felt we got an authentic Italian experience as well. Would highly recommend!
