Sunset cruise was magnificent. - We had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was fantastic. He even helped us after the tour when we were lost. He was the nicest person in all of Italy.

A great evening on the water - Everything you could ask for! Fulvio and Antonio took care of us on board showing us the sites around the bay and giving us insight and history of the area and the culture. It made a pleasant evening that we will always remember. Well worth our time and money.

Sunset boat trip - bay of Naples - A very relaxing evening watching the sun go down behind the city from a different perspective. Just what we needed after a day wandering around old Naples.

Stressful timing changes, no sunset, mediocre cocktail, but safe and fun swimming. Not worth the price. - We recently took a sunset cruise in Naples and had a mixed experience. While there were some enjoyable aspects, there were also several areas that could use improvement. **Coordination of Timing:** The tour company called only 24 hours in advance to move the departure time up to 5:30 PM. We informed them that we wouldn't be able to make it until the originally scheduled time of 6:30 PM. They were flexible and moved the time to 6:00 PM, but we communicated that this would still be tight for us. We ended up arriving at 6:15 PM, which caused visible frustration among the other passengers, even though we were still early for the original 6:30 PM time. This last-minute change created a lot of stress and anxiety as we tried to adjust our plans to make these times work. **Sunset Viewing:** Unfortunately, we did not actually see the sunset. While the sky was beautiful, there was no sun setting over the horizon, which was quite disappointing given that this was the main attraction of the cruise. **Onboard Cocktail:** The cocktail provided on board was quick and small, nothing to write home about. It felt more like an afterthought than a highlight of the experience. **Positives:** On a brighter note, the ride was safe and comfortable. The crew allowed us to swim in the sea, which was a fun and refreshing activity. Overall, while there were some enjoyable moments, I wouldn't recommend this cruise for the price and experience. There are likely better options available that offer a more reliable and fulfilling experience.

Organisational chaos but beautiful experience - We had both poked this experience as part of my birthday celebrations. I was hoping for a relaxing couple of hours in Naples Bay. Unfortunately, due to the incompetence of World Tours (the local company) the experience was almost ruined. Our booking was for 18.30 and we planned accordingly. At 17.30, we received a call asking where we were as the boat was waiting. 30 minutes of panic, rushing, many telephone calls and messages ensued. We arrived at the deserted meeting point to be told that we ‘must be patient’ and wait for the guide!!!! You couldn’t make it up. Birthday treat completely spoilt. Our guide Giovanni was very kind and understood that the situation was unfortunate. The actual boat trip, once we had a beer in hand, was excellent. Our fellow guests were fun and we saw parts of Naples we would not otherwise have seen. The views of Vesuvius, which we had climbed earlier in the day were spectacular. The Captain and Giovanni pointed out many of the sights and were excellent hosts. Such a shame that the office staff of World Tours got things so badly wrong.
