Absolutely amazing day on the boat!! Tour guide Luisa was lovely as was the captain. We thought the 5 hours was going to be too long but it was perfect. So many great swimming spots and views. 10/10

Very precious and enjoyable trip. Ponza is gorgeous and we took beautiful pictures. Kimberly the tour guide was very friendly and helpful. My daughter had the greatest swimming time there and she enjoyed exploring those amazing grottos so much. We made cool friends on the boat as well. Thank you for an amazing experience!
AMazing!!

Swimming through the grotto of water of 2 colors bright blue and teal was probably the coolest thing I've ever done! Loved the day!
A must do!

When I booked our trip to Rome, I wanted to try to see the coast at least one day. A local suggested that we go to Ponza, we are so glad we did! This day was one of the highlight of our trip to Italy! I still cannot get over the beauty of this island! Gina our guide was awesome! She really made this tour unforgettable for us. She was attentive to everyone, very knowledgable of the island and she made sure everyone had a great time. Very friendly! It’s been only 24hr since we left the island and I already miss it ;)
Esperienza straordinaria

Bella esperienza, con un bravo conducente e un ottima guida turistica. Paesaggio mozzafiato con soste indimenticabili. Un ricordo che rimarrà indelebile.
Il giorno delle stelle quelle Marine

Il ritrovamento di due stelle marine e immergersi nelle acque verde smeraldo, guardare l’arrivo di pesci in mare alla ricerca della pasta avanzata gettata in mare, riflettere sulla storia di Ponza grazie alla valida guida Valerio e conoscere e apprezzare la vita del mare con la testimonianza le capitano Luca
Spettacolare

Sono stata qualche giorno fa ed è stata un'esperienza bellissima, non solo si ha l'opportunità di fare il bagno nei posti più belli dell'isola, ma abbiamo nuotato in una grotta e anche nei pressi di un relitto. Il personale molto simpatico e la guida ha raccontato storie interessanti riguardo l'isola (sconsiglio solo di non sedersi vicino all'altoparlante sulla barca perché la voce può essere forte). In poche ore abbiamo visto praticamente tutte le cale di Ponza e anche di più, cosa che senza questo tour impiegherebbe molti giorni, ma allo stesso tempo abbiamo sempre avuto il tempo di fare il bagno con calma. Per queste ragioni credo che l'esperienza meriti 5 stelle, e spero di poterla rivivere un giorno.
