Overview

Four unforgettable hours on our super zodiac that will let you experience the meaning of the Italian 'Dolce Vita' as you explore one of the most poetic Gulfs in the world.
We have the most beautiful and newest RIB boats in the Gulf and are the only ones to provide amazing inflatable lounger platforms to extend your relaxation under the sun! It is the perfect experience for anyone who wants to enjoy the most secret coves inaccessible from land in the Gulf of Poets OR along the Cinque Terre Coast (choose you favorite option), avoiding the crowds, while at the same time exploring the coast and its picturesque fishing villages without any stress.

Itinerary

Departure from our floating base in Passeggiata Morin, La Spezia. We'll sail along the western coast of the Golfo dei Poeti, admiring the villages of the Borgate Marinare till Portovenere, the hidden and unmissable gem, where we'll pass through its "Bocche", the strait between the village of Portovenere and the wild Palmaria Island, from which rises the suggestive church of San Pietro, built into the rock and a UNESCO heritage site. The first relaxing swim of our tour along the Cinque Terre coastline awaits us, in one of the most beautiful coves with crystal-clear waters inaccessible from land. We will set up our inflatable lounger platform in the water to further enhance your comfort. The first village in the Cinque Terre you will see is Riomaggiore, followed by Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and at last Monterosso. You can cherish them all from the sea! Once you arrive in Monterosso you can stop for about 45 minutes with free time to visit the most vibrant village of the Cinque Terre.
After the stop, we will leave to return to La Spezia, enjoying Grotta Byron, Torre Scola and the mussel farm.

The tour brought us by all five villages, and to see them from the water is very stunning. We stopped to take a swim and had a little more than an hour to go onshore and have lunch in one of the villages. The guide was very knowledagble and said everything in three languages. Only negative is that there is very limited cover on the boat so wear your sunscreen.

What a bad and disgusting experience !!!!!!!! AVOID THIS MERCHANT ! They stole our money We booked for a PRIVATE sunset boat tour for 7 persons, paid around 1000€ with “Get Your Guide” and when we arrived to “La Spezia”, we discovered that the boat was not private at all. They wanted to share 4 more people with us. We totally refused to go on board and when we asked for a refund, we got a total refusal and we were kicked out ! They are rude, impolite and unprofessional! Get Your Guide told us that the merchant refused to refund the money ! Big thieves !!!!!!!!!!! We paid 1000€ for nothing WATCH OUT !

We booked this trip for the final day of an excellent nine-day cruise, and it was the best day of the cruise. The Gulf of Poets is beautiful, and our guide Frederico was fantastic - enthusiastic and extremely knowledgable about the area and its history. Over four hours he showed us some amazing sights, took us to a great swimming spot to cool down (it was a HOT day) - and gave us some time to explore a couple of the local towns. Information given we very clear - HopHop are very easy to find, friendly and professional - the way they organised the various groups and got us onto our respective boats was extremely slick, with no wasted time at all. We would recommend this tour in a heartbeat, and can't wait to come back and see what else HopHop have to offer!

This was exactly what we were hoping for! We had a very pleasant boat trip during which Ivan, our skipper gave us a view and some history of all 5 of the towns of Cinque Terre, had a chance to have a swim off the boat and disembarked for an hour to visit Monterosso. I was a bit nervous as the boat is a zodiac and I'm very prone to seasickness, but it was obvious that Ivan is a very experienced skipper and manipulated the waves expertly - I had absolutely no issues. The towns were all packed with tourists and this was a great way to see all the towns from the sea, visit the largest of them (which we are told are all very similar), and not have to deal with the crowds, train or hiking it the heat. Money well spent!

Ivan was our guide. He took time to explain in french and english everything. Because of weather complications (too much waves), we are unable to stop in Monterosso. Then we stop in Portovenere and had a swim in the sea in front of Portovenere. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you to all the team.
