We cannot thank Captain Joe and Skipper Ted enough for the best vacation of our life! The sailing yacht is a beauty, is lovingly cared for and is in pristine condition. Joe made sure the trip was catered to our every interest. He made arrangements for us to experience authentic Italian towns and restaurants, some accessible only by boat, and others, which his substantial charm and connections, granted us access. We not only got to see the Almalfi coast as many don’t experience, but we made good friends with Joe and Ted. We cannot wait to rebook for another custom trip and if you are unsure, just book it - Joe is a gem and the experience unparalleled!

If it were simply a matter of visiting the coast by sailboat, this experience would would receive five stars (Gorgeous panoramas of the coastline, peaceful sailing up the shore, beautiful sailboat, private bonding time with my family). However, Joe, our host / skipper, put the experience over the top. His knowledge of the area, connections with family up and down the coast, personal care for our needs, thorough command of both English and Italian, and skill at handling the craft were invaluable! The first night, he took us to a restaurant at the base of a cliff near Amalfi town accessible only by boat (which we thoroughly enjoyed). The next day, he brought us to Positano, and then to the Capris Islands to swim in the pure blue water. Thanks Joe (and Fabio) for three great days on the water and on shore.
