Secret Engagement and tour

Salvo is a great host! He made all of his guests feel very welcomed and relaxed. I planned to get engaged to my girlfriend during the trip. Salvo took care of everything, we exchanged numbers a few weeks before the trip and he helped me plan it. On board he provides drinks and snacks, Which were top quality. I had all of my family with me, one of which was pregnant and he showed extra attention when she moved around the boat. My trip was a sunset tour and it certainly did not disappoint! Salvo kept in regular contact two days before the trip with updates of the lake and weather conditions. It appears quite pricey but I would definitely recommend. The general cost of things around lake Garda are fairly pricey anyway so it wasn’t really a surprise. Worth every penny! Think it worked about £37 pp for 2 and a bit hours.

Amazing boat trip with an amazing captain!
My girlfriend and I booked a boat trip with Captain Salvo and it turned out to be the best thing we did in Lake Garda which is one amazing achievement on Salvo's part considering how outstanding Lake Garda is in general... From the minute I contacted Salvo about arranging a trip, he was a gentleman and very accommodating. We originally booked a three hour trip which then turned into a day trip and the rest as they say is history! We stopped near the Caves of Catullus and went swimming and then we had a brilliant home made pasta lunch, water, wine, coffee, prosecco with strawberries, aperitif on board and more...all of it excellent. It's the best way to spend a day and whilst anybody can rent a boat themselves or participate in a group tour - you're missing out unless you go with Salvo as he's a great man and you get excellent hospitality & a really enjoyable experience at a really great price...he could easily charge more! When I go back to Lake Garda - I'll be calling Salvo again! Thank you Salvo, until next time...!

Salvo fantastico!
Had a superb two hour trip around Sirmione. My wife and I had the boat to ourselves and Salvo provided the entertainment washed down with a nice Prosecco. What a character! Great fun. Would thoroughly recommend it.
