This day trip to Ponza & Palmaroia was the perfect way to end our trip. After visiting all the amazing historical landmarks it was nice to relax and see other parts of Italy. Mike really made this trip run smoothly.

This tour is the best kept secret in Rome! After days of sightseeing, history, art, and miles of walking, our family was treated to a day with Michele and the beautiful coast. We swam in the perfect waters of the Mediterranean, witnessed the beauty of Ponza and Palmarola, and enjoyed great company. This was a perfect solution to see the coast when we didn't have days to travel, and Michele takes care of all the logistics. I loved that this is where the Romans vacation - it made the experience even more special!

We had the most delightful day trip to Ponza and Palmarola. Michele is a terrific guide - helped us get everywhere we needed with ease, and shared many things about the greater Rome area, Ponza and Palmarola that made the experience more fulfilling. He treated us like good friends he was hosting for an island day trip - he was a warm and engaging host. I highly recommend booking a tour with Michele and his team. We will definitely do so again when we return to Rome.

Ponza is spectacular; the water is pristine and the landscape is unique. This was the most memorable excursion we took from Rome! We traveled as a family of 4 (2 adults and kids ages 11 and 8), and this was a perfect way to escape after 9 days of sightseeing. We spent 5+ hours moving around Ponza relaxing and swimming in the sea. The kids had a blast and enjoyed jumping off the top deck of the boat.
Michele was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. He took care of everything - transpiration to/from Anzio, ferry to/from Ponza, boat transportation while in Ponza. He knows the island VERY well, and more importantly, the locals and boaters know him. Michele gave us recommendations for getting a quick breakfast before boarding the ferry. Having Michele navigate this trip made it more enjoyable and relaxing for us! He found ways to keep our kids engaged in the trip but also would share his knowledge of the area with us. Our daughter especially enjoyed getting to drive the boat with the captain, thanks to Michele for helping to organize that.
