Our captain Beppe was amazing, he sailed the boat very calmly and made our trip very pleasant. He told us lots of story’s about the area and found the best snorkelling places for us where we could swim safe, the whole process from booking to sailing went very easy.

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip. We arrived early for our excursion and the tour company was accommodating, even allowing us to begin our trip when we arrived as opposed to waiting for the initial booking time. Our guide, Beppe, was friendly, experienced and informative. We never felt rushed and he did everything possible to ensure our comfort. As there are a lot of tour boats on the water, he tried to time our swim stops so that we were not surrounded by other tourists. I would not hesitate to book this tour.

We left the port at 9:30 in the morning. Alessandro was our skipper. He was very informative about the sights and history of this beautiful landscape. We had a wonderful time. Tropea is a beautiful place to visit in Italy and this tour is a must. Paulo was very helpful with explaining to us what we would expect to experience. 5 stars!!

Domenico was the best skipper we could ask for. His knowledge of region of Calabria was unmatched. A true gem on the waters for my girlfriend and I private cruise. We enjoyed every aspect of it from snorkeling with the fishes to walking the sandy beaches. It was a true 10/10 experience. Request domenico for your private tour it is worth it!!!

My Husband and I have traveled to Tropea multiple times and everytime we rent boats at TropeaSub for multiple days. Those days always turn out to be our favorite and most memorable of our trips. I did extensive research before selecting them initially. The boats are always kept in top notch condition and the staff is unbelievably knowledgeable of the local sea. During our first trip many years ago we were young newlyweds, this year we had our 2 year old twins with us. We knew we could trust TropeaSub to supply a safe boat and clear instructions where to travel. After a fantastic but full day of boating our twins were exhausted. Alba and her daughter played with them and gave them snacks while my Husband and I packed up our belongings. They even called us a taxi so we didnt have to walk up all the stairs to Tropea with 2 crying toddlers. That type of kindnes didnt go unnoticed for us. We already considered ourselves customers for life but this trip definitely sealed the deal. If you're looking to rent a boat in Tropea, or do anything on the sea, TropeaSub is #1.

The tour was certainly beyond all expectations, proving to be the best in recent years, thanks also to the excellent skipper Beppe who made us appreciate the beauties of the Costa degli Dei. Thanks also to Melania and her suggestions.

Unforgettable experience that allowed us to see and enjoy a sea that we didn't believe could exist! The dinghy assigned to us was new and well maintained, impeccably clean. The very knowledgeable and attentive skipper immediately put us at ease and together we modulated this splendid excursion (we preferred to stay longer in one point and skipped another, but we were ecstatic!) Overall an excellent experience!

Unfortunately it was not the experience we expected. The stages were those of organized mass tours, we found ourselves among dinghies with 20/30 people. We were thinking about visiting coves and bays but instead we ran at breakneck speed to get where? In the midst of many other boats, a bedlam. We also recommend changing the brand of prosecco used for the aperitif because it is of poor quality.

Wonderful tour among the transparent waters. This exclusive experience is absolutely worth doing. Diving into a Caribbean sea. The skipper Salvatore fantastic.
