Couldn't recommend more! Valerio was so incredibly helpful from the beginning. Went above and beyond to help organise an affordable transfer for our group prior to the trip, as well was so responsive which was great. The actual boat day was so much fun, great staff, accommodating, food was just what we wanted - even had some cakes provided for birthdays. Not to mention it was super clean and the crew went beyond to make sure it stayed that way throughout. If you have one activity to do on your trip it's organise a boat day with valerio!

Stromboli, Panarea and Salina are important destinations. A start from Palermo with a city tour before and after the sailing trip is recommended. The relaxed and inexpensive journey by (new) train to Capo d'Orlando is also recommended. By taxi or shuttle you would pay up to €400 per trip. By train it is only €14 per person. There are even taxis that cooperate with the port and take sailors to and from the port for €5 per person.
Stromboli, Panarea und Salina sind wichtige Ziele. Ein Start von Palermo mit Stadtbesichtigung vor und nach dem Segeltörn sind empfehlenswert. Ebenso die entspannte und günstige Anreise mit dem (neuen) Zug nach Capo d‘Orlando ist zu empfehlen. Per Taxi oder Shuttle würde man pro Fahrt bis zu 400€ zahlen. Mit der Bahn sind es nur 14€ pro Person. Es gibt sogar Taxis die mit dem Hafen kooperieren und Segler für 5€/Person dann vom und zum Hafen bringen.

This is the fourth time we have sailed in the Aeolian Islands and it is always a great pleasure even if we would like to have a little more wind.
C'est la quatrième fois que nous naviguons dans les îles Éoliennes et c'est toujours un grand plaisir même si on aimerait avoir un peu plus de vent.
