Our Ponza highlight - So fun! Lots of swimming / snorkel stops at pretty coves with clear water. The impressive coastline’s geology and history was explained by the captain with translation into English for us by Mara, who was wonderful and enthusiastic. Pasta dish impressive for prep on a boat! Would highly recommend!

Boat tour exploring all of Ponza's coastline - The tour went around the entire island with several swimming stops at beautiful coves and with descriptions of the attractions and history. There were about 20 people in the group, so if you're looking for something more intimate this may not be the tour for you, but the boat was comfortable and the staff took their time to show the island.

- beautiful excursion, the food was great and the staff friendly and helpful. I recommend it because you see beautiful coves, is not included Palmarola but it is still worth it

A Dream Day with Ricardo - We took a private tour (three women) with Ricardo who toured with us around the island of Ponza. Massimo drove the boat and we had an incredible time. Ricardo shared history of the island and was so fun and delightful. We stopped and swam and snorkeled....a dream day.

10+ hour day - This day isn’t 5 hours. It’s more like 10-12 hours. Was a massive day of more travel than fun. Probably wouldn’t do again even though I had a great time the travelling to and from was too long. Boat trip was unreal the history was amazing and the swimming was incredible. Our tour guide was so lovely and very friendly which is why I have 4 stars but the travelling was the downfall

We're going for a day... - We went sailing for a day. The rental of the snorkels was 30 euros pp. The lunch was delicious but very basic. So all in all, way too much money for this trip.

Misleading, Disorganized, & Disappointing - Even if we had not been on the superior Ponzesi per Scelta Jolly boat to Palmarola the day before taking this tour, we would have been disappointed by the overpriced, underwhelming Ponza boat tour trio by EcoArt Travel, which was unprofessional and misleading. Firstly, the confirmation stated the tour left at 10:30, so we arrived early to not be late. The tour did not leave until after 11:00, so we wasted time waiting in the hot sun for the guide who SHOWED UP at 10:30. The crew consisted of the captain and 2 teenage boys, one who barely stopped making out with his pouty girlfriend for the 5 hour trip right in front of everyone on the small boat. The “lunch” finally served at 3:30, consisted of a bowl of pasta and A CUP OF WATER. The great Ponsezi per Scelta trip served plenty of tomato topped bruschetta, 3 different types of pizza, pasta, and a torte for dessert. In addition, the fun, professional crew walked around serving prosecco and there was a huge ice chest full of canned drinks, including beer and sodas. That tour was 2/3 the price of the Ponza trip! The Ponsezi boat has bunches of noodles and many inflatables for the passengers, while this Ponza boat had 3 old, worn-out noodles. It was telling that when the “dessert boat” cruised up to yesterday’s boat, everyone was so full from a great lunch, that NOT ONE person bought anything. When the dessert boat came up to the Ponza boat, over half the passengers lined up to buy ice cream and drinks because we were so hungry. I felt totally ripped off and scammed by the EcoArt Travel boat to Ponza trip. Take my advice and go with Ponsezi per Scelta Mickey Mouse or Jolly boat instead, whose tour is offered on TripAdvisor.
