Back from an amazing week you can not want anything but to get back on board! Sailing among fantastic views and crystal clear waters in the company of Vittorio was a relaxing, regenerating and unique experience. Master of patience made us immediately feel welcome in his home, which he cared for incessantly with a discretion that has extraordinary. Always attentive to our needs, he led us to discover the islands with wisdom and competence, making the best choices based on the weather and our desires. Skipper right, courteous and extremely polite has attached the holiday exactly to what were our expectations, managing to intuit them with delicacy and discretion manifesting his absolute competence in navigation and deep knowledge of the territory. A very valid sailing instructor, he transmitted the rudiments to us, making us passionate about following the wind. This holiday was well beyond our expectations, we couldn't ask for more!

Vittorio was an absolutely passionate skipper! In addition to having led us to memorable places that remain alive in the drawer of memory, he also transmitted to us his great love and bond for the sea. The type of holiday he proposed to us was his vision of how to experience the Aeolian Islands and life on a sailing boat. Very prepared to face even the most hostile adversities! Between unexpected sea trumpets and lightning storms we sailed around the islands discovering their diversity and their peculiarities, typical and not obvious of the Sicilian territory. The boat was very Clean. As well as bathrooms and common areas. The climate in the crew was very loose and serene. We had a great time thanks to the sympathy and confidentiality of Vittorio. Thank you so much for the wonderful Experience! We will certainly know who to rely on for the next adventure in the Aeolian Islands! A hug Faith & Wrath

First experience on the boat, to be repeated certainly but not with Vittorio. The first days passed quietly apart from the sustained character of the skipper who was unable to mediate and calmly explain things. Rude and grumpy skipper, he decided independently without proposing any choices on the destination where to go. With his attitude I felt controlled and uncomfortable with every slightest movement. I strongly advise against it. ______________________ Skipper's response: The participant has been disembarked (and reimbursed) as a result of behavior unsuitable for the normal performance of on-board activities.

Unforgettable experience with Vittorio, who loves the sea, sailing, and tranquility on board, who managed to show us beautiful places in a week full of misfortunes and guaranteed relaxation. Personally I have always brushed my teeth and slept without salt on the skin. In addition, Vittorio has always brought absolute respect for the spaces granted to us. In case of work in the cabins he asked our permission and said what he would move. Vittorio always assured us that it was not a problem for him to pick us up late at night. If you want to do the three, he will not be bothered to pick you up, but the others to hear you come back. Boat unfortunately soiled by rude people who smoked in the bow at night. Baskets in the bathroom emptied every day. Perhaps those who have never collaborated have not noticed it. The holiday was really relaxing and fun after two were turned away. An experience that I would do a thousand more times and that I would have prolonged for weeks. Thanks Vittorio!!

Thank you Vittorio for everything! Holiday that I would absolutely repeat and that I recommend to everyone! Vittorio has a huge experience of the sea and the islands, and was a very pleasant company throughout the holiday. He tried to satisfy our requests on the itinerary, always having as a priority the safety and serenity of the crew: his foresight and COMPETENCE have punctually avoided situations that could be unsafe due to bad weather. He was a very welcoming and very professional host; he made us find a CLEAN boat and did not spare himself in helping us keep it that way; with patience he taught us the rudiments of sailing and, for the well-being of the group, he was able to draw a necessary limit with those who did not have the same respect for the rest of the group and for the sea. What can I say... beautiful islands, transparent sea, delicious food: unforgettable experience! Only, again a huge THANK YOU and good wind!!!

First boat holiday for me.. and I wait for the next one! Wonderful people and absolutely magnificent places! Super clean boat and skipper very good at immediately creating a welcoming atmosphere and great collaboration (the morning coffee he does!!) In addition.. Vittorio spent the week managing rogne: first with some rude and arrogant passengers, to be generous, who fortunately left us almost immediately. In order not to miss anything, thunderstorms and storms followed: Vittorio never made us feel in danger and, instead of keeping us in port together with many other boats, he gave up sleep and tranquility to try to make us see and savor as much as possible given the conditions: incredible! If you want to feel good, his boat is the place! Good wind to all!

First of all I want to thank the skipper who, having the readiness to remove a very rude subject, protected the rest of the crew from an inevitable clash. We should think of being able to evaluate with stars and comments the tourists who take part in this kind of holiday, in order to prevent them from ruining others (not everyone knows the term "respect"). Stop the controversy: wonderful itinerary Vittorio was very welcoming, pampering us even in preparing breakfasts and meals. Although we unfortunately encountered storms, I NEVER felt in danger, given his great ability and knowledge of the sea and its pitfalls Super professional and very helpful in explaining course changes (need for weather) always made in our interest SPOTLESS BOAT what else to add: THANK YOU VITTORIO, UNFORGETTABLE HOLIDAY !!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO A POLITE AND RESPECTFUL PUBLIC!!!!!! GOOD WIND TO ALL!!!

Experience to forget! Rude, arrogant and supported skipper. Experience ended earlier than expected due to his rudeness. Ill-disposed and unfriendly, he decided independently without sharing the choices. Every question was taken as inadequate. Several times he moved and looked through my belongings, without authorization. Endless stops near the ports of the various islands, despite the sea was not very clean did not intend to move to other areas. Any request even that of cooking was taken in a bad way. He requested not to consume water even for brushing teeth. He did not see the fuel at the start. According to the skipper you could not return late at night and necessarily sleep in the cabin despite a strong smell of fuel and an incredible heat. Bathroom never washed so much that after 3 days being in 7 you could not enter for the pungent smell of urine. Not recommended if you intend to take a QUIET boat holiday. _______________________ Skipper's response: The participant has been disembarked (and reimbursed) as a result of behavior unsuitable for the normal performance of on-board activities.

Beautiful week to discover the Aeolian Islands with Vittorio, experienced and helpful captain and his skies clean! Experience definitely recommended and to be repeated!

Vittorio welcomed us on his boat making us feel at home. He was always kind and attentive, we decided together all the movements, he made us sail safely and made himself available to teach us navigation. A person who loves the sea, sailing and his work and does it with passion and transmits it to you from the first day. There was no lack of laughter, adventures, relaxation, dream sunsets, nights at anchor, dips in a dream sea and shore excursions. A holiday in which nothing was really missing and that leaves us with a beautiful memory of Sicily and its extraordinary islands. Vittorio also carefully chose the crew with whom we had a great time and also this foresight, not least, helped to make the holiday unforgettable with a group that found harmony and balance right away. Highly recommended! Thanks for everything Vittorio, we will definitely be back! Good wind.

The boat is nice functional and in excellent condition and Vittorio is its experienced and reliable captain. Sail in full harmony with Vittorio and his passion for the sea, a very good sailing master but also attentive and respectful of the needs of his varied group. All this has allowed us to live a beautiful experience of relaxation, fun and close and respectful contact with nature as only these ingredients can give. A special holiday to repeat. Beautiful people sea wind sky stars fire earth nature!!

A beautiful boat experience thanks also to Vittorio who is a very precise, attentive and caring skipper, a great connoisseur of the sea and the Aeolian Islands, he told us many anecdotes and recommended various places to visit. For those who want to learn to sail is also a good teacher. Thanks for everything Vittorio.

My first boat holiday, perfect and as I expected! Vittorio's boat is beautiful, simple and clean. The calm rhythms I needed, the wonderful Aeolian Islands. Vittorio is competent and welcoming, a great connoisseur of the sea, available with all of us, ready to give us advice on excursions and restaurants and to let us experience sailing. Absolutely recommended experience :)

First experience on a sailboat really very very positive, also thanks to the competence and professionalism of our skipper Vittorio! Clean and well maintained boat. Experience that I highly recommend to those looking for a relaxed and authentic sailing experience. Thanks to Vittorio and your boat!

Fantastic holiday also thanks to Vittorio, experienced skipper and great connoisseur of the islands, who was able to give us many tips on what to see and where to eat. The boat is in very good condition, clean and well maintained. Experience I highly recommend!

Vittorio a very prepared guy attentive and precise. A holiday to recommend. For me first experience I would say passed to excellent marks.

Boat in excellent condition, competent skipper and connoisseur of the places. Experience to recommend

We had an incredible experience with Vittorio on his boat. Vittorio was an amazing skipper, who kept us safe and taken care of the entire time. He has an incredible knowledge of the place and recommended amazing places to eat, drink, and see. I would absolutely recommend Vittorio to anyone looking for an authentic, adventurous and relaxed sailing trip.

Vittorio is a great skipper. He is passionate about sailing, his knowledge of the Aegadian Islands is deep and we will probably meet him again at the Aeolian Islands for a sailing trip. The boat is clean and well maintained. I definitely recommend Vittorio

Vittorio kind, nice and competent. He was able to combine the sporting aspect of sailing - very patient to explain the maneuvers - with the hedonistic one of the trip to the sea and amazed us with the hammock under the catwalk to doze off at anchor. Vittorio knows the Egadi well and has been able to recommend shore trips and restaurants. The boat is in very good condition. Thank you Vittorio and we can't wait to see you again!
