“It could not have been a better day for us! The Skipper we got was lovely and informative. The views were breathtaking and we got to see inside every cave and grotto there was, along with a waterfall shower off the front of the boat. The boat was a little smaller than expected, but we didn’t mind. Not the skipper or operators fault, but the Blue grotto is mayhem to get into. Lines of people on the land, and boats of people trying to get in. We were looking at a 2 hour wait and just floating there, couldn’t swim for all the boats so close trying to get in…”

Fedirico our Skipper was an absolute joy and very friendly and informative of the area. Leading up to the day and even the day itself the team at Restart Boat was in contact and very happy and quick to respond to any queries we had. We cannot recommend this tour enough and will definitely do it again when we come back! Thankyou Restart team!”

“We had such a nice day out on the water with Andrea! We were a little stressed arriving as our means of getting to the meeting point was running late, however Elisabeth at the BlueStar booth was very understanding and helpful in making our day stress-free. Andrea was an excellent tour guide, teaching us about all of the beautiful sites that we passed and making sure we were comfortable throughout. We stopped in Nerano for a delicious seafood lunch, and spent some time on the water with complimentary prosecco and snacks. We saw many beautiful caves and grottos, and finished with a stop in Capri. Highly recommend as a way…”

Review of Salerno’s self-drive Amalfi Coast boat rental, with Positano, Amalfi, swimming, costs, equipment, fuel, skipper details, and tips.
“Incredible. Best thing we did during our 10 day cruise. Felt bad for all of the people that paid for chartered tours. Bring cash for gas when you return the boat. Operator gave us recommendations for where to stop, made us a reservation for lunch, gave us a cooler with ice, and went above beyond with hospitality. Boat was great… clean, ran well, and was comfortable. Their location was very convenient from our cruise dock, 5 minutes walk. Teenage daughter loved it.”
