Right from the booking to the sailing day, Pio was very reliable with high level communication. Coming to Malta for the first time and hoping to surprise my partner with this experience , Pio made our stay & my partner’s birthday forever a memorable experience. Even going beyond my expectations to offer nibbles and a bottle of wine to mark this special occasion. It was not only refreshing and cosy but we also felt welcomed all the time. We spent a whole day with Pio and he kindly took us to see the Blue Lagoon near Comino where we stayed for a bit and enjoyed some pleasant time together. Pio is very easy to talk to and we had a good laugh together. Pio showed us many beautiful spots and commented on the history of the islands. He was also very respectful when we wanted to chat just me and my partner. Pio really made this experience special and I’m happy he’ll be part of my birthday memories (my partner’s remarks). Everything is as it is shown in the pictures and the Bavaria boat(storm 2 - code name I learned Pio use) is in excellent condition. Looking for that memorable sailing experience with a highly capable captain, Pio is your go to guy. Great customer service speaks for itself, but when the service is naturally delivered from the heart , words will never suffice. Thank you Pio. Highly recommend!!!

Thank you Pio! It was a very fun and exciting trip. I would definitely recommend Pio to anyone. You can tell it's his passion and he told us everything about the island. You can joke around with him and enjoy the boat trip. Even when my mother-in-law got seasick, he reacted really well and helped immediately. Thank you very much Pio, it was nice to meet you.

We had the best day, we all loved the boat trip and it was our highlight for Malta. It was essential to see everything from the boat as it is the best way to see cliffs and beautiful places like the blue lagoon. Pio was the best, extremely attentive and friendly and we loved the boat!

Had the most wonderful time on our day boat trip. We were welcomed by Pio who showed us the boat and introduced us to the skipper Kenneth. Both Pio and Kenneth were very welcoming and attentive. It was my birthday so they prepared a bottle of prosecco which was very sweet of them. We had a lot of fun and Kenneth took us to various swimming spots and taught us some Maltese history. I would recommend everyone hiring a boat for a day trip to see Malta especially the boat from Pio :)

Pio is a great skipper and a very nice guy who gave us the opportunity to visit several beautiful spots in Malta. He’s a great cook too who made delicious pasta for us :-) The only small inconvenience was the back seats canopy that couldn’t be removed because of the mounted solar panels on top. Overall a really enjoyable boat trip, highly recommended…

Pio was amazing from start to finish. Took our booking on short notice and had excellent communication from the outset. The boat was lovely and Pio was so friendly and knowledgeable throughout. We were a family of 5 with my parents and Pio was especially kind and helpful towards my mother which we really appreciated - a true gentleman. Would absolutely go for a trip with Pio again if we find ourselves in Valetta in the future. Highlight of our holiday!

Our wonderful Pio is a pure sea soul. Very professional, kind, open and friendly. It was a double pleasure to sail with Pio and on his boat which fully lived up to our expectations. We really liked the charter to the restaurant that Pio booked for us and, contrary to expectations, affordable prices and very tasty food. I recommend the charter services from Pio with eyes closed. Thank You Pio!!!

We had a lovely day aboard Pio’s boat as a party of four. Pio is a very charming and easy-to-speak-to skipper, which is important for obvious reasons. Naturally he knows all the best places to visit and is safety conscious. The boat itself is very comfortable and has all the facilities you will need for a pleasant day’s cruise along the coast of Malta.

Pio was amazing. I have done private boat trips in Malta before, and Pio was by far the most informative and kindest captain we have ever had. The boat was amazing and very clean. The bay we had planned to go to was too windy and Pio immediately decided to go to one further down even though a slightly longer journey. Couldn’t recommend more

We had a great time with Pio. He's an excellent skipper and personable, knowledgeable and easy to chat to. He made my daughter feel very welcome and had floats and a lifejacket available when she wanted to go in the water. Pio took us to more remote locations than the Blue Lagoon, which allowed us to gain a better experience in the water without numerous boats and jet skis flying past. We had a lovely lunch and another break together around two swimming sessions. The boat is lovely and spacious - perfect for any group between 3 and say 7/8 people. We had a great, relaxing day and I cannot recommend Pio highly enough. Superb!

He also suggested a tour of the Grand Harbour which was one of the highlights of our day. We wouldn’t hesitate to go sailing with Pio again and warmly recommend to anyone.

Very satisfied! Very clean boat, a lot of space below deck; above deck seating arrangement is rather compact but the seats face the centre of the boat allowing for face to face communication. Space for sunbathing on the front of the boat. Pio,the skipper, is very friendly, and as gracious in person as he is in his text messages.
