The boat was in perfect condition. By far the best part of our trip was our captain, Carlo. He customized our itinerary to suit our needs (small kids in this case), played great music, knew the history of our stops, and consistently checked in to ensure we were comfortable. Great local wine too. I would go out again with this company and recommend Carlo. Thank you for an amazing day trip!”
