The most amazing trip! Even though we had a little rain and a cloudy sky this trip was so so worth it. Ricardo was an amazing guide, so friendly and knowledgeable about the sights both on the bus and the actual boat tour. I cannot say enough about how beautiful Ponza is, and getting to swim several times throughout the day was an unforgettable experience. Everything was simply amazing.

danp412

Great day on the island. We did 5 snorkel spots. The scenery was amazing. The captain and guide were great. Lots of history explained. Only negative would be that it would’ve been nice to find a public bathroom for us before getting in the bus.

Everything was just perfect, especially our tour guide Riccardo told us a lot about the Island. The boat trip (incl. Boat Crew) was absolutely amazing. We had 5 pretty awesome Spots to swim and the view was stunning. It was even better than expected. Thanks to you guys!

Ponza was our first day trip while we were on vacation in Rome & it couldn’t have been a more amazing experience. The views are breathtaking & the colors of the Tyrrhenian Sea are like something out of a dream. Riccardo was an incredibly informative & entertaining guide. I would definitely suggest this tour!

Lexi_K

my favorite part was swimming right off the boat the water was beautiful!! Our tour guide was also amazing and knew all the great spots to swim.

Santiago_P

It was a most memorable day trip. Ricardo our guide could not be more simpatico and knowledgeable. I will never forget how blue the sea was and the dramatic views of the island. I love that we have plenty of time to swim and to visit the town. All in all a wonderful experience and a well structured excursion.

Beth S

Loved this excursion! Great break from sightseeing in Rome with our 16 year old. Ponza is just beautiful. The water is so beautiful and cliffs along the shore are stunning. Lots of opportunities to jump in and swim. We were in Europe for 3 weeks and this was one of my favorite days.

randy_c

The trip was all day, bus, to bus, to ferry, to day trip ship...and back again. WORTH IT. The Island was stunning, tour guide was knowledgeable and there for us. we have been all over the Caribbean....ponza had the bluest, clearest, and cleanest water I ever experienced. toured, swam, ate, traveled.......and took i the most beautiful location.

Churchill G

Perhaps one of the prettiest places I’ve ever been. Was favorite part of my visit to Rome, even though technically it is not Rome.

The entire experience was extraordinary and we have our super guide Riccardo to thank. He gave us a great overview of what to expect and communicated in perfect English and Italian. He provided a great amount of information and history and then once on the island, the view and water was unmatched/ it felt like a lesser known Amalfi coast experience. The pasta on board was also delish! Highly recommend, my two tween boys loved it too
