This dinner cruise is simply sublime. The staff is attentive without being oppressive, the background music is superb, the candlelit dinner takes place in a cozy place, the tables are not shared as noted in the description they are all in pairs where a bottle of prosecco awaits you and served you as soon as you arrived. The meal is delicious and very hearty (6 dishes + desserts). You can get up to admire the view on the boat deck and even ask the captain if you can sail, which he kindly agreed for my husband. Flawless: staff, meals and an indelible memory.

This experience was absolutely wonderful! Our food restrictions were taken into account, and we were given full bottles of wine and prosecco for no additional cost. The food was delicious and it was so cool to sail by so many different islands at night. Eating on this classy candlelit boat was such a romantic experience (especially since they had lovely music playing softly as we ate). Highly recommend if you are looking for something special to do with a loved one!

We had an exceptionally pleasant dinning experience, the crew members were fantastically polite and professional, the food was amazing. The music, ambience and atmosphere were all well balanced. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who’s looking for a romantic night with her/his significant half and spend a night in this city of love

What a fabulous evening. Food was absolutely gorgeous from start to finish. Staff very friendly and super efficient. For the quality of food and the ambience it was worth every cent! Highly recommended

Very nice experience. The exceptional boat. The meal was very generous and very good. It is an outing to do without hesitation
