Reviews
This was a wonderful experience. My family and I really enjoyed the boating, the jumping/diving, swimming, the Sardinian geography and history lessons from Alessandro and Andrea, the wonderful snacks and wine, and just about everything about this tour. Highly recommend.
We chose Andrea because we loved the boat so much; there are hardly any wooden boats on the booking sites that look authentic. After our trip, I have to say we made exactly the right choice! Andrea puts his heart and soul into what he does and showed us some beautiful spots, as well as telling us lots about Sardinia’s history. We can highly recommend him! If you’re holidaying in Sardinia near Cagliari, this is an absolute must-do that simply has to be part of your trip.
What a truly wonderful way to experience the beauty of Cagliari coastline Andrea was a wonderful tour guide sharing many facts about the spots
We had a wonderful boat trip together with my sisters. It was such a beautiful experience, and we really enjoyed our time on the water. Andrea shared interesting and informative stories about the surrounding area, which made the trip even more enjoyable. Everything was well organized, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. We had a lovely time and would definitely recommend this boat trip to anyone looking for a memorable experience. Thank you, Andrea!
Our trip was perfect, the boat is so comfortable, along the way we learnt a lot of history of the area. A tasting lunch was provided accompanied by local wine (or water) and the swim stops met all our expectations. We also had the unexpected visit from some dolphins, in all, a memorable excursion.
This was a relaxing day on the water in a cool family vessel. Boat had lots of space for 8 of us, and a canopy for shade. Snack was local and wine was perfect after snorkeling and sup' ing.
Thank you Andrea for showing us all the good and hidden spots for swimming and snorkelling. It’s been so much fun to swim and see beautiful sands and fishes, particularly for the seaweed. He explained all the spots with detailed descriptions and history, really letting us understand Sardinia in a different way And of course, this tour ended with a glass of Sardinian White Wine and cold cuts, with the perfect blend of sunset. Best boat tour we ever had!
We had an amazing time on the boat, with beautiful views of the cost of sardinia! Highlights were the the snacks&drinks and the jump in the water. Can truly recommend booking this experience!
Wonderful experience. Highly recommend this tour. Crew very accommodating and knowledgeable. Water was warm and calm.
I recently enjoyed a three-hour boat tour and had a very lovely time overall. The views were beautiful, and the experience of being out on the water was incredibly relaxing and enjoyable. The crew was friendly and the atmosphere generally pleasant. That said, the boat did feel a little too crowded at times, which made it slightly difficult to fully unwind. The snacks and aperitivo provided were quite basic – sufficient, but nothing particularly special. For £100 + for two I did expect a little more. That said. I did have a very pleasant time and the coastline is beautiful.
Great experience. Beautiful area/boat. Captain was great. Helped out one of the people in our group on crutches. Snorkeling was fun.
What a great way to spend your morning exploring the coastline of Cagliari and learning about the area. Andrea was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, it truly felt like I was apart of the family enjoying the day. The water and beaches were beautiful and the photos are IG worthy. Don’t miss this excursion.
Enrico and Andrea were great guides. Beutiful wooden boat with good coverage from the sun. Stopped several times to swim and learnt about local history. Was one of the best days of our holiday.
We really enjoyed this trip. The crew was very friendly and welcoming. They took us to beautiful sites and beaches that were not accessible other than by a boat. Many thanks for a wonderful experience.
An excellent tour: lovely coastline and a couple of swimming breaks in shallow water. Competent, friendly and knowledgeable crew, providing interesting information without talking all the time. The promised snacks, which I assumed would be crisps and water, were freshly-prepared sandwiches, melon and a glass of wine. Thoroughly recommended.
The trip was really nice, the temperature of the water was just perfect, they always communicatr with me and were flexible and understanding.
The organisers of the boat tour were really lovely and helpful, going the extra mile to provide us with useful information for our trip. They played music and gave us food and drinks whilst on the tour. The boat is small enough to feel intimate and the views were beautiful.
My wife and I had a fantastic boat tour with Andrea and Simone. The boat felt authentic for Sardegna, and the hospitality and local knowledge was most appreciated. I would recommend this trip to any traveler that wants to see the Cagliari coast from the eyes of Sardegnians!
The Skipeer and André are very friendly, the snacks are top, you need to put music on the boat an explain the places that we go diving (improve the diving material)...the rest are top...a lot of sucess for you🍾😎
We had such a special trip with Mauna Loa. The boat was great, they served amazing food and drinks and we learned a lot about Sardinia and Cagliari. Cannot recommend them enough!
This tour was the brilliant- skipper Andrea is relaxed and welcoming and knows everyone on the water so it feels like a big friendly family. The boat is a beautiful, traditional boat with a special story which is nice. The swimming is indescribable. If you are in Cagliari put this experience on the top of your list!
Unforgettable experience from start to finish. Skipper Andrea was the perfect host, ensuring that every moment of our journey was enjoyable and relaxing. The boat is impeccably maintained and provided a comfortable and scenic setting for our day on the water. One of the highlights of the trip was the array of Sardinian delicacies Andrea served us, perfectly complemented by a chilled glass of Prosecco that was simply divine. The combination of exquisite food, refreshing drinks, and the stunning backdrop of the Sardinian coastline created a truly magical atmosphere. Andrea's knowledge of the area and his passion for sailing were evident throughout the trip. He took us to some breathtaking spots that we would have never discovered on our own, all while sharing interesting insights and stories about the region. Overall, the daily boat trip on the Mauna Loa was an exceptional experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Cagliari.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an unforgettable experience aboard the gozzo Mauna Loa in Cagliari! The skipper, Andrea, was incredibly helpful and the perfect host, making the trip even more enjoyable. We stopped at stunning coves, each more beautiful than the last, and were treated to delicious Sardinian food and wine. This boat tour is an absolute must-do when in Cagliari. Highly recommended!
It has been a fantastic, relaxing, and quite exclusive experience. A way to get to know Sardinia from another perspective. The best part was swimming in inaccessible coves and having an appetizer on board the gozzo. Andrea is a 10, he explained everything in several languages and masters the boat and the craft like no one else.
Experience nothing short of fabulous. The captain, Andrea, was immediately very friendly and considerate. We are not very young so a little clumsy at the climb of the boat. We were helped so that it became very simple. He described everything we saw and explained very well. There were foreign tourists and he also explained in the various languages. I must say beautiful experience. I'll recommend it.
Wonderful experience, the water is absolutely magical. Perfect aperitif and good wine! Snorkel is available for everyone to borrow! Everyone should experience this!
We participated in a half-day boat trip in the Gulf of Cagliari and it was an experience I recommend without any hesitation. Impeccable organization, clean and well-maintained boat, stops at the most picturesque coves with crystal-clear waters, and plenty of time to swim and relax. A special thanks to Andrea and Simone, professional, knowledgeable, and always available, who kindly helped us discover the beauties of the coast while sharing many interesting facts. A perfect way to admire Cagliari from a different perspective. Definitely an experience to repeat and recommend to anyone visiting the city!
Unfortunately, the boat tour was cancelled 3 hours before departure. The reason given was bad weather. The sun is shining, it is not windy, the sea is calm. We rather suspect that it was due to too few participants. But then you have to call it that.
Simone and Alessandro were perfect and very pleasant as hosts. Welcoming and warm I highly recommend booking with them. Thank you a thousand times
Super pleasant skipper with a lot of knowledge. Very relaxed atmosphere on the boat. Snack with traditional products. Can only highly recommend.
Nice boat tour, diving goggles and stand-up paddles were provided. Small apperative at the end. Nice boat driver
The views were beautiful. We had a very pleasant time. Thank you to the guides for this rich excursion.
Great experience! Andrea and Simone really nice and friendly people. On board excellent aperitif with local cold cuts.
Superhyggelig tur med god forplejning af lækre pølser, oste, Chips, minipizzaer, bobler, vin, øl og vand. God og venlig kaptajn, som kunne fortælle meget om det vi så på turen. Eneste minus var at toilettet ikke virkede. Derfor ikke 5 stjerner.
Beautiful boat, very nice staff, wonderful trip! Guys if you want a fabulous experience to see the coast near Cagliari this is a perfect opportunity. An unforgettable day
On a wonderful day we spent an amazing experience on board the gozzo boat conducted by Captain Andrea. Going around the spectacular promontories and coves of S.Elia, Cala Mosca, Cala Fighera and under the walls of the Sella del Diavolo, is unparalleled! Diving into their crystal clear waters is priceless.... Then before returning a tasty aperitif Time, adds a kit of sympathy and well-being. Experience to try. Consigliatissima!!
Very nice tour on a totally nice rustic wooden boat to beautiful beaches nearby with bathing stops. A trip like with friends, relaxing and cozy, jumping in, swimming, snorkeling and watching fish, enjoying regional delicious snacks and cool drinks. Thanks again to Andrea and Simone (host/skipper), it was a very nice experience.
Wonderful experience to comfortably discover glimpses of crystal clear waters under the Devil's Saddle in good company, good food and Expert staff. Great to break from routine and spend a different day between relaxation, sea and fun. Thank you Mauna Loa we will see you very soon.
Morning of 4 hours by boat with super recommended aperitif! Crew really helpful and nice, we would have liked more! Sea and beautiful coves, to try absolutely. Thank you!
Thanks to Andrea's experience and professionalism me and my colleagues had a fantastic day! Da rifare, super consigliato! Ps. Aperitif top
We spent a very pleasant morning on board, discovering beautiful places. Staff very courteous and helpful.
Great experience! Andrea was in care. It adapts the output according to the weather. We had a great time. The water is beautiful and the aperitivo is very good!
Andrea and Simone are really nice and hospitable. The boat is super comfortable and the places we visited are spectacular. We swam in crystal clear waters and enjoyed an excellent aperitif. Super recommended!
The charm of the wooden boat is priceless, launched in 1965, it stands its 59 years very well. Totally renovated, it offers very spacious seating areas only at the bow and on the deckhouse, with an expert and welcoming crew. After reaching the Sella del Diavolo we had an aperitif in the harbor... what can I say: WONDERFUL 🤩. To redo ! Vote 10 💪🏻🏆
a lateen sail, well maintained, kind and attentive staff to all our requests... took us to beautiful places around Cagliari... truly recommended trip for adults and children.
