A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience with Claudio and Zannone 1954 - When we first arrived in port, we had a bit of trouble with our cab. I walked into a restaurant to ask if anyone spoke English, and that’s when we first met Claudio. Not only did he help us find our cab, but little did we know he would soon become our guide and a highlight of our trip. The very next day, we ran into him again. My wife’s last name is Mazzella, and as we started talking, Claudio graciously offered to walk us to her family’s old home. To our amazement, he even introduced us to his mother, who recognized my wife’s grandmother from a photo we shared. It was one of those once-in-a-lifetime moments that we will never forget, made possible by Claudio’s kindness and generosity. Claudio also shared his rich history with his beautiful boat, Zannone 1954. If memory serves, he is the fourth generation to own it, and you can tell he takes immense pride in carrying on his family’s legacy. The boat itself is stunning, and his passion for Ponza and its waters shines through in every detail of his tours. It’s easy to see why TripAdvisor lists him and his boat as the #1 thing to do in Ponza. Between his warmth, hospitality, and deep knowledge of the island, Claudio made our trip unforgettable. If you’re in Ponza, don’t miss the chance to tour with him—you’ll leave with memories that last a lifetime.

Incredible Ponza Boat Tour - Claudio was incredible in showing our family the beautiful sights of Ponza. The water was incredible, Claudio's piloting was smooth and he navigated the water well! He brought us some Prosecco and chips as a little snack, and brought us to a local restaurant for lunch. The cost was a little higher than other rides but Claudio makes it worth it with his stories and insights around the island and is such a pleasure to be with for the day. We booked Claudio for 7 hours and he was warm and inviting for our group of 7 and he even brought on some other family members who joined us after lunch. His boat was big enough for all of us!

Ponza Island Tour - A day with Claudio on the waters of Ponza was truly amazing. His skills and knowledge of the island are superb, and the ocean and rock formations are absolutely spectacular! Book with Zannone 1954—you won’t be disappointed.”

Unforgettable Day on the Water with Claudio in Ponza - Claudio gave us an incredible day on the water. The Zanonne 1954 is a beautiful boat, and Claudio is an outstanding captain. He is professional, friendly, and deeply knowledgeable about Ponza. He has a deep passion for the island and his heritage, and he takes great pride in sharing it with visitors. We were a family of nine, including a few non-swimmers, and he made everyone feel completely safe and comfortable. His guidance and local insight made the trip an experience we will never forget. We only wish we had booked more than one day. We’ll definitely return to explore Palmarola with Claudio next time. Highly recommended!
