- Imane G0 contributionsThank you amazing experienceThank you so much Emma so kind and. Caring we have been with our baby and she was taking care of everything and giving us recommendations excellent experience♥️Written July 9, 2024
- severine1poole0 contributionsBrilliant staffAmazing staff and very well organised, we had a very special day. We booked the top deck, and were three generations! From teenagers to 90 years olds! Grandpa got of at la madelenna and didn’t re embark, we all went into a panic, the crew had luckily a rib still on the island and they managed to bring him back to the boat in minutes… Thank you guys and good luck for the next seasonWritten September 30, 2023
- SheilaB1234560 contributionsFantastic day outGreat day out for the whole family. Went with my husband and 2 kids and we had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The whole crew were so nice and welcoming and very professional. The 2 swim stops were spectacular and it was lovely to wander around La Maddalena, we had icecreams and a browse around the shops. There were loads of people on board but plenty of room for everyone. Great value for money, would highly recommend.Written July 12, 2023
- angelocP2530WY0 contributionsExcellent tourExcellent service and tour! The food was fresh and the team was really friendly! The islands are amazing but you need the right tour to enjoy it and this is the right one!Written April 12, 2023
- shejnowski0 contributionsNice party boat. Make sure to buy extra tours to explore the archipelagoThe whole family enjoyed the tour a lot. We counted on more beaches though. It only stops at one beach and later you need to pay extra to go to any other. Make sure you do this otherwise you will stay in the boat the whole day. The boat is very pleasant, good bar and great DJ. It would seriously be much more fun if they focused on beaches.Written August 7, 2022
- dinnyoregan0 contributionsFabulous family day outFabulous day on a very comfortable boat, very clean, pleasant staff, lovely swim stops and shopping, highly recommend the luxury VirginiaWritten June 20, 2022
- Vin06610 contributionsOverpriced tourThe website cited that the tour would consist of 4 islands but we were only taken to 3. The tour wasn’t in clear English and it was very hard to understand. The website stated that lunch would be provided but upon enquiring I was told that lunch will now no longer be provided due to Covid. However the VIP deck was given food and there was 0 social distancing on the ship - it was crowded so it seemed like Covid was just used as an excuse to not provide food. I enjoyed the islands but the ticket was definitely overpriced!!Written August 21, 2020
- TalS19700 contributionsRip off!Food ran out! Far too crowded! Only 40 mins at La Maddalena! It's all mis-sold, when complaining, they ignore it & do not respond!! Book with a different company if poss!Written September 6, 2019
- Helpfulhints120 contributionsExcellent way to see the beautiful archipelago of islands off SardiniaThis was a day trip, starting at 10.00 and finishing at 5.00. This was a well equipped boat with comfortable seating. We were upgraded to the V.I.P seating on the top deck and looked after well by our hostess for the day. The islands and surrounding inlets are truly beautiful and the boat stops a couple of times for sea swimming. We were looked after well by a young and friendly crew and considering the trip also included a pasta lunch we thought it well worth the money at 80 euros.Written July 2, 2019
- Livestotrave10 contributionsBest day trip ever - 10Best day of our holidays, stunning locations are discovered aboard this Virginia yacht. Turquoise water everywhere, white sands, you can swim at different points during the itinerary. The mini tour in my opinion was the best, you are taken to dream like locations. I encourage everyone to take this tour. Lunch and welcome drink served on board, we did the standard itinerary. Crew are helpful and cheerful and hardworking, deserve an applause!Written June 26, 2019
- Melanie S0 contributionsNot worth the 90€Too many people. We booked VIP tickets and were put into the "cage" on the first deck - all other people were staring at you as they were sitting only one metre away from us... Cool drinks for free! The ice to cool the drinks came a few hours after departure. Mass tourism at its best. If you want to have a special experience, don't book this boat. The archipel is nice but too many boats and people to really enjoy it. Even the 50€ for the normal ticket would have been too much. After a few hours the ladies' toilet couldn't be used - 1 toilet for 100 people - you can imagine how it looked like! It was terrible. Book one of the little boats with 10-12 people as we wanted - but those tours are full 1-2 weeks in advance. So please reserve a place early enough!Written September 2, 2018
- MrsPink20130 contributionsCurrently on VirginiaCurrently on the boat for my 48th birthday. Can’t sing their praises enough! We have had a fabulous day, I was a bit hesitant at booking as it looks like a pirate ship, but it’s been perfect. Brilliant price, great facilities and friendly crew. I would definitely recommend. I am a reluctant swimmer but the ribs that take you to shore we’re a godsend as was the supply of life jackets. You can take your own food nd drink onboard, they also have a toilet and shower onboard. They gave me 4 glasses of procecco and cake for my birthday! Really had a great day! Remember your own easy breath or snorkel gear as they don’t have it onboard. We didn’t find it necessary to buy vip, maybe if it was busier, drinks were reasonably priced onboard too. Thank you so much we’ve had a wonderful day!Written August 5, 2018
- Johansoh0 contributionsVIP well worth the extra money! Near perfect day out.We took the standard route around the archipelago (there is a special route on Saturdays) and what a great trip. The route itself was 5 stars no doubt. We were advised by our hotel to go for the VIP experience which gets you a sunbed of your own on the VIP deck with optional partial shade and excellent views the entire tour. We were taken to some stunning places and a short one hour stay in the port on Maddalena just enough time for a short walk and some well-deserved ice cream. The VIP food was quite good and served in pretty seashells which was a nice touch. Some minor things that could be improved. Most of the guiding is done in Italian language with short summaries in English. Not a problem for us but something to take into consideration. The audio for the guide is also not loud enough to reach the VIP deck where there's music in the loudspeakers while the guide speaks. The free bar ran out of water, the drinks selection was close to nonexistent (water, "juice" and wine). These are minor things compared to the amazing trip, quality of the boat, VIP area, staff etc. Highly recommend this as it takes you places you wouldn't be able to go without a private boat.Written July 27, 2018
- Ingrid R0 contributionsA amazing day out on JakarandaThis was a highlight of our holiday. A seamless transfer from our hotel to the pick up point and an immediate warm welcome from the skipper Bruno and Marco. Quickly followed by sweets and a great espresso that hit the spot . Both hosts were so helpful and such fun. From feeding cheese to seagulls to telling us the local history, there was never a dull moment. Bruno bravely allowed anyone to drive the boat. The views were spectacular and the colour of the water was so beautiful. We stopped for our first swim and Marco took people ashore in the dinghy if they did not want to swim so perfect for families with younger children. We stopped again in our lunch spot. The food was so delicious. An amazing cold board starter followed by pasta and mussels (with a non seafood option available). More sights followed and a walk around the city of Madalenna. A final swim stop, afternoon pastry and iced tea and then we were back. I can’t recommend this trip enough. There were 11 guests on the beautiful sail boat and comfy cushions and seating areas. This was marginally more expensive than the VIP area in the boat that takes 180 and it was worth every penny. Thank you to Bruno and Marco for a wonderful day.Written July 14, 2018
- meganjeg0 contributionsMagical Day. Do the VIP experience.A highlight of our time in Sardinia! The service was excellent, the boat comfortable, the tour interesting and the views spectacular. We did the upper VIP deck and would highly recommend. You get your own sunbed for the day, personalised service and a quieter (kid-free) deck. Lying in the sun (or under the shade cloth) was delightful as we cruised from the mainland of Sardinia to shopping on Magdalena and then three swimming spots during the course of the day. Food was nice and there were plenty of drinks on offer. The water was calm (I get seasickness and had no problem), I would recommend bringing some layers, it can get windy when the boat is moving depending on the day. Bring (and use) sunscreen, there were some very pink tourists at the end of the day... A great way to experience the amazing turquoise waters, soak up some sun and relax.Written July 5, 2018

We found the trip so fun, quite long so make sure to bring snacks and maybe drinks if you don’t fancy paying for expensive bar food/drinks. The stops were sufficiently timed, however I don’t recommend if you have kids that constantly want to swim.
This being said, this was the highlight of our trip, recommend wholeheartedly

The organization and availability of employees is excellent.
The boat is excellent.
When I bought the trip they told me about 2 1-hour stops at beaches but we only made 1.
They should compensate customers.

good experience on the boat but not even a glass of wine offered or something else to welcome, but that was not a problem, the problem was that we were stopped 2 hours in one spot and in total we saw only 2 beaches, too little!!!
Too much time spent on the boat and only 2 stops for swimming and 1 stop on the Maddalena city…

Recommend it. At VIP you have very comfortable sunbeds, the bar right bext to you. We loved the optional excursions. You have enough time for swimming.
On the downside I felt it was a bit crowded .

The boat trip was nice, the location is beautiful. There was a bar in the boat, which was convenient to get refreshments.
Not clear at all why this is called a eco friendly boat.
Also, the first stop was really packed with jelly fish. People could have been warned before jumping in the water. In our group, 4 out of 5 got stung, including the children.
The second swimming spot was great.

Really enjoyed this tour! The guided part of the tour was through their app so you had the option of listening or just enjoying the boat ride. They had a nice bar with food and drinks on board. The stops were great and felt long enough. We also did one of the mini tours that you pay extra for. I recommend! You get to go to a more secluded location and the water was absolutely beautiful. One thing to note that we didn't realize is that if you want the top deck area with nice loungers, you have to reserve in advance. We didn't realize this so were a bit disappointed when we got on board and weren't able to book that area because they were full. Not the end of the world but would have been nice to know if that is something you're interested in. Overall, great trip and recommend!

No no, non ho detto questo. Se scegli il ponte Vip ti offrono il pranzo, ma comunque credo tu possa portare da mangiare,non mi pare ci siano veti a riguardo,anche perché chi non ha il ponte Vip comunque credo abbia portato il pranzo a sacco oppure acquistato dal bar di bordo.
