Vera
"The boat tour with Luca was truly wonderful! We initially hesitated about spending so much money for five people. Looking back, however, we can say that the €55 per person for a one-hour boat tour in the evening sun, including Prosecco, was absolutely worth it for this special experience. Booking was straightforward, and Luca was a very friendly and relaxed guide. We highly recommend the tour!"
