Cesare took us through a thorough induction of the boat, where to go and local regulations. The boat was in excellent condition and easy to handle. Weather conditions at the time were a bit rough, so we couldn't access the snorkeling points we were keen to check out. Instead, after motoring up the coast and back we anchored up and enjoyed the swi.mi g and views of Ortigia. Great way to spend the morning. Highly recommended

Cesare and his wife were very friendly and helpful when it came to renting the boat. Telling us exactly where to go and all the places we could explore. Definitely a must do when in Syracuse so couldn’t recommend enough. Boat was very clean and equipped with snorkelling gear and cool box.

We had an amazing day on Cesare’s boat! Lovely communication with both Cesare and Miriam, who gave us a great rundown on how to use the boat and details around where to go and where to avoid. Cesare even gave us a bottle of Prosecco to enjoy, which was a really beautiful surprise. This experience has been the highlight of our time in Sicily! Thank you Cesare and Miriam for your warmth and kindness. We will return ☺️

We had a fantastic experience renting a boat from Cesare and his family in Siracusa. Cesare, his wife, and daughter were incredibly welcoming and gave us excellent recommendations on where to sail, what to see in the area, and the best spots to anchor and enjoy the coastline. As first-timers with limited sailing experience, we really appreciated the clear and thorough instructions they provided. It made us feel confident and comfortable from the start. The boat was in great condition and easy to handle, and we had an amazing day exploring the sea around Ortigia and beyond. From the initial booking to the return, everything was smooth and professional. Cesare and family was helpful and responsive before, during, and after the rental. Highly recommend to anyone looking to spend a memorable day on the water in Siracusa!

The boat was perfect tbh. Except that there was no cooler(even if it said that it has cooler). Otherwise, amazing experience, for real. Really nice places, the owner is a good man, explained us everything clearly. Would recommend!!

Certainly, here's the corrected and modified version: Cesar was incredibly friendly and laid-back. We booked his boat for a day, and it was almost like new – very pleasant to sail, with everything in perfect working order. We had an amazing day on the beautiful waters of Syracuse, all thanks to Cesar and his helpful team. Thank you!

We had a wonderful day on the boat exploring Syracuse’s coat line an sunbathing and snorkelling in the bays, we would highly recommend. We have 2 young girls who had a great time. Cesare and his team were very helpful and welcoming and the boat came with fins, floats and life jackets so the girls were safe. Excellent and quick communication, we would use again and recommend.

We had a fantastic experience with Cesare! Everything went smoothly from start to finish. The boat was in top condition – clean, well-maintained, and perfectly equipped. After a short, clear briefing, we were able to set off right away and enjoy the day on the water to the fullest. A particularly positive aspect: the atmosphere was relaxed and professional. You can tell the passion they put into their work. We would book again anytime and can wholeheartedly recommend Cesare! Thank you for this fantastic experience.

Here's a warm, grateful, and clear message you can send to the boat owner: --- Hello Are, A big thank you to Ceasare and his wife for your warm welcome and generosity. You are an absolutely amazing duo, at once caring, reassuring, and incredibly friendly! The boat we rented was perfect: very easy to handle, maneuverable, fast, ideal even for the most novice sailors. Thanks to your practical advice, given with great insight and good humor, we were able to fully enjoy it, with complete confidence. We highly recommend your services and your boats; it's an experience we will gladly repeat. And for those traveling with family or younger children, you also have perfectly adapted options. Thank you again for this wonderful break at sea. See you soon.

It was a unique experience. We were two adults with two children, and the boat was perfect for us. Unfortunately, it got a bit windy around midday, so we had to head to a sheltered bay and couldn't go much further out. We were in constant contact with the boat rental company and received good advice on how to proceed. In the end, the rental company picked us up from our bay and brought us safely to the mooring. It was excellent service, and we felt in good hands. We can highly recommend the "Two Brothers" bay. It's truly beautiful there. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

We asked Cesare for a motorboat rental without a license for the day: a treat! The welcome was great, Cesare took the time to tell us how the equipment worked and all the must-see spots in the surrounding area: you will not be disappointed! Crystal clear waters, caves, snorkeling spots and so on. Provided on board: masks, snorkels, fins, and as a bonus a nice little bottle in the cooler! You can go there with your eyes closed, 100/100! See you soon

Cesare was extremely kind and helpful. The boat was clean, tidy and in perfect working order. He explained all the controls to us, and even provided us with a paper guide regarding the most interesting points of Ortigia and the Plemmirio Nature Reserve to visit. This really made a difference, because in addition to there being a map there were also descriptions of the main attractions. On board the boat we also found snorkeling kits (really useful for appreciating the wonderful seabed), a cool bag and a bottle of prosecco which was kindly offered to us. Cesare and Miriam even came to pick us up at the port of Ortigia as, not having a car available, we would not have been able to easily reach the boat pick-up point. Truly recommended experience, we had fun and relaxed a lot!

We were greeted very kindly by Cesare and the boat was really as promised. Champagne, beer and something to nibble on were waiting in the cool box. The day on the boat was fantastically beautiful and we can definitely recommend this booking. Thank you ??
