We really can recommend it. Our day on your boat was entertaining for the children and relaxing for the adults with nice local food and drinks. We learned a lot about sailing and the area. It was a great stay with you. Thank you very much for all.
Alessandro was an absolute gem. I worked with him to book some clients on a day sail and he was very easy to communicate with, very kind and generous with the guests. I would not hesitate to book with him again and again. Grazie Mille, Alessandro!
My wife and I recently had the pleasure of spending a week with Alessandro for a vacation, and we must say it was an unforgettable experience. Alessandro is not only a fantastic host but also a wonderful individual. From the moment we stepped on board, he exuded a warm and welcoming energy, making us feel right at home. His positive attitude was infectious and set the tone for the entire trip. Alessandro's constant joy and zest for life were a breath of fresh air, making every moment on the boat a joyous one. It was evident that he genuinely enjoys what he does, and his enthusiasm only added to the overall experience. Alessandro is an expert in all things nautical and the local region. We enjoyed his captivating stories and interesting facts about the places we visited or the animals we saw. It was evident that he is passionate about sailing and loves sharing his expertise with others. The boat itself was a true gem. Comfortable and (VERY) well-maintained, it provided a cozy and relaxing environment for us to unwind and take in the stunning views. Overall, words cannot even begin to express how great and generous of a person Alessandro is; we highly recommend him and his boat for those who are passionate about discovery, adventure and keeping curious. The combination of a remarkable host, a beautifully well-kept vessel, and the amazing surroundings made this trip truly memorable. If you're looking for an extraordinary getaway with a genuinely wonderful individual, Alessandro and NEOS are the perfect choice. We can't wait to sail with him again in the future. We thank you very much !
Great experience with Alessandro as we sailed for 3 days 2 nights to Isola d'Elba. He's a wonderful host and skipper and very attentive to all our needs.
Alessandro was a perfect captain of the best boat day ever!!! Not only was he a perfectly professional captain who figured out the plan to maximize fun for us based on our personalities / needs as we went, he is also a very interesting man with a beautiful life that we got to know about as we all opened up to each other and became our friend over the course of the day!! In addition to manning the ship seamlessly he made us a delicious meal (that was sooo Italian and chic), kept the drinks flowing, and just waited on us hand and foot throughout the whole day, but in a way that never felt weird bc he’s just so naturally fun and hospitable so it felt like a friend was hosting us. And that’s because by a few hours in, a friend was hosting us!!! We are now friends w Alessandro. We have a group chat. 😂 We are going to stay in touch and have an idea for an artistic collaboration we want to work on with him. (To be clear—if we had not been friendly types who wanted to talk to him, he would have kept to himself. In fact in the beginning of the day when us three guests were quiet and hungover Alessandro was to himself, then when we got to being curious and chatty, Alessandro was receptive and so delightful and fun and interesting. Basically he can read the room very well, which is one of the many things that make him a great host.)
Alessandro is an amazing captain and a Great teacher! We had a fantastic 7 days on the boat… his route recommendations were just amazing, and the Islands we visited were just stunning! if anything he was being too nice, even at the end when he dropped us at the bus station even though we were running late. There was only one thing that could have boosted the comfort on the boat: more fans. it gets really hot, and the air circulation isn’t fantastic. Bring A little usb fan along if you’re traveling mid summer. Aside from that AMAZING!!!! Thanks Alessandro!
Dear Alesandro It was such a pleasure to sail with you! We could feel the passion you are having with the sea and sailing! You are a great commandante, host, chef, sailing teacher, tour guide and person!!! Thank you so much for having us on your beautiful and very well maintenance boat! We will come back :-) Best, Radelfamily
Alessandro is a really nice skipper. Very courteous. And also a good cook! The boat is in top condition. Clean and well maintained. Skipper and boat can be absolutely recommended.
The boat is in absolute perfect conditions of maintenance and cleanliness. Alessandro is a very social person and easy to get along with. He is a very experienced sailor, he shares lots of information about sailing in the region and, as we want to take the sailing licence, he was very active and open in explaining us and let us try everything on the boat from basic maneuvers to special things like going with the tender or reducing the main sail. On top he is a great host who absolutely spoiled us on board! It was a great experience!
We had a great day out on Alessandro’s boat. He was very friendly and communicative from the moment I made the initial enquiry. He helped to craft a bespoke itinerary for us. We sailed to Giglio island and had the most amazing lunch. On board we had delicious snacks and drinks. Alessandro also explained how things worked to my husband who loved it. We hope to sail again with Alessandro some day soon.
Alessandro was the perfect host. He provided everything we asked for and more. Our excursion on his boat was one of the highlights of a week long vacation on Italy.
The communication before, during and after the trip was uncomplicated and easy. The boat is well maintained, clean and comfortable (I stayed with my girlfriend). Furthermore, Alessandro has a relay good knowledge of the area (bays, beaches, harbours, hiking, snorkelling, diving, restaurants, food, wine, culture and so on) and is a pleasant host, who likes to enjoy the sailing adventure with you.
What a beautiful and well maintained boat with a very sympathetic captain who brought us to the nicest bay in the area! Thank you Alessandro!!
It was an unbeatable experience. Everything worked perfectly, thanks to Alessandro's professionalism and warmth: the boat is great, very comfortable, everything is in perfect condition, and Alessandro's attention to every detail is incredible. And on top of that, he is an extraordinary cook! We had an unforgettable day. Many thanks to the captain, when we have another opportunity we will definitely repeat.
Alessandro is a magnificent person! I have to say that he went far above our expectations and that we had a great time with him. The boat is new, very clean, comfortable. He welcomes you as if you were his best friend. He is an experienced captain, an excellent chef, and knows inside out all the best places!
A DREAM HOLIDAY. 7 days between Giannutri, Giglio and Elba from an amazing perspective. Perfect boat with attention to every little detail both in terms of comfort on board and for going to sea. Alessandro was definitely the best skipper we could ever wish for, welcoming and friendly, he knows these places like the back of his hand and made us live every single day to the fullest.
Alessandro is an expert sailor who managed to satisfy - in any weather condition - our expectations of being able to spend a few days to visit the magnificent island of Elba from the perspective of a sailboat. His boat is comfortable and perfect for a group of four like ours. Even from a human point of view he is a very pleasant person who loves the good things in life and loves to share them with his guests, spoiling us for the duration of our trip. Highly recommended without reservations.
Alessandro with his wife were amazing! They made us spend some very nice moments. The boat is very beautiful and well cared for, they are very hospitable, convivial, helpful and always make you feel at ease. Alessandro is a competent and meticulous captain who patiently taught me many secrets of his knowledge. I take this opportunity to thank them and to say: see you soon!
Alessandro and Miriana have the ability to put their guests at ease. Great ability to relate even with children, a gift that cannot be taken for granted. At the end of the holiday it seems to have known them forever. The boat is objectively very beautiful, and Alessandro is an expert, kind and patient skipper.
Alessandro, the owner was really very nice and patient with us as we boarded the boat for the first time. He explained everything to us and recommended the best by listening to our needs. It was a wonderful experience that we will definitely do again. Thanks Alessandro for the beautiful day spent together
Alessandro is an expert skipper who allowed us to explore the most beautiful corners of the Tuscan archipelago. Always very kind we felt at home. His beautiful and comfortable boat contributed to an unforgettable vacation. Highly recommended!
Alessandro and Miriana succeed in the difficult task of forging a friendship starting from a weekend on a boat. It was our first experience on a boat and everything led us to want to do it again immediately. The boat is gorgeous and Alessandro is the best skipper we could wish for.
5 stars also to Alessandro and Miriana owners of the boat who, in a very short time, made us feel completely at ease despite this being our first experience. The perfect conditions of the boat, the optimal climatic conditions, the friendliness of the owners, their willingness to involve us even in some of the simplest maneuvers, made this experience unforgettable. We highly recommend it and, as far as we are concerned, we hope to be able to repeat it as soon as possible.
Alessandro was an exceptional skipper, he knows perfectly the places he made us visit and gave us very useful advice, he is also very helpful. He holds his boat like a jewel so nothing is really missing on board and everything works perfectly. We will definitely come back to sail with him.
I state that for us it was the first experience on a sailing boat, with great pleasure I share our wonderful stay on board. Let's start from Alessandro's boat: what to say ...... perfect, clean, tidy, excellent for hosting a couple and a child of only 2 years ...... the comforts on board are many, the care and order make everything a wonder! ! We chose the island of Giglio to spend 2 days in total tranquility and enjoy a spectacular sea and then return to Marina di Grosseto (the next day) stopping at Cala di Forno where we met the fallow deer who frequent the beach. Alessandro a special person ....... Courteous, helpful and nice who made our first experience unforgettable. It will remain a pleasant memory also for our "little one", welcomed with open arms on board by our Captain. Thanks for the wonderful experience Alessandro .... see you soon Andrea, Francesca and Lapo (who still asks ....: but alessandro what are you doing ???)
Our experience with Alessandro and Miriana went beyond our expectations. We are a family of four, with two children aged 9 and 7, and we had contacted Alessandro to let our two boys try the experience of the boat. The experience was super positive: Alessandro and Miriana were welcoming, patient, nice: they immediately established a good relationship both with us and with the boys. It was like sailing with two old friends. We chose the itinerary together, they were able to advise us, they were accommodating and respectful of our needs. But beyond the experience on the boat, we are sure we have found two people with whom we will gladly keep in touch in the future. We definitely recommend!
Nice day with Alessandro, serious person, kind and very nice! Thanks for everything and see you soon! Alberto & Chiara
Alessandro is a competent and serious skipper, an affable person, company and attentive to the needs of everyone on board. He immediately put us at ease. The boat is very comfortable and extremely clean. Experience to be repeated for sure!
We were at the first experience and it was all very positive and beautiful. Alessandro is a very good person, precise professional, nice and very easy going. Definitely to be repeated
To spend a different weekend than usual and to learn a little more about sailing, my wife and I decided to do this experience on a boat. Alessandro and his wife Miriana were excellent hosts or rather of "boat". They really put us at ease and cheered our stay a lot. The boat is new, very well maintained and very comfortable; it is cared for in all aspects and equipped with everything you need. Alessandro is an excellent teacher, he is a real sailing enthusiast and does his utmost to ensure maximum comfort. Experience highly recommended and to be repeated as soon as possible !!!
It was me and my partner on board Tyche for two wonderful days, an experience recommended to everyone, the boat is very comfortable and as a first sailboat experience I think it couldn't have been better. Now I would spend a few words for the legendary skipper Alessandro, a fantastic, sweet, one of a kind but above all a friend. He worked from the first moment to make the surprise that I was organizing to my partner special, indeed it became a duty for him and this made me understand who I was dealing with. Attentive to the smallest details of our needs, he delighted us with his fanciful aperitifs, giving importance to one in particular under the spectacular sunset of an oven cove and finally an exquisite candlelight dinner in the stern to conclude the evening. I highly recommend the Tyche package plus Alessandro to spend days of immense serenity.
Thanks Alessandro for the warm welcome on your beautiful boat. It was precious for a moment to share your great technical knowledge and your great passion for the sea of surface and depth. As a first experience in the family we felt in good hands ... to be redone.
Alessandro friendly, nice and helpful .. He put us at ease trying to make the experience as good as possible .. We will certainly return to his boat
Me and my family from Alessandro had a great time. Ale was very kind and competent, his boat very clean and kept in perfect condition!
Good morning! My wife and I spent four days FANTASTIC in the wonderful Tuscan archipelago aboard the TYCHE 1, bavaria 34 two cabins really comfortable, in perfect condition, safe and very clean where everything works perfectly: it is 8 years old but looks amazingly new !!! Perfect to host a couple like us with very little (my wife zero ...) sailing experience. This, however, goes into the background if we talk about the very expert Ship Owners: Alessandro and the very nice wife Miriana who for two days (only two unfortunately ...) has remained on board with us. They are exquisite, available and sunny people as well as being experienced navigators with whom it is nice to share everything; the attention they have towards the guests goes beyond the due, it is immediately spontaneous to reciprocate so much kindness because they will make you immediately feel at home. It's really hard to meet the best travel companions ... Among jokes, laughter, stories, dips, aperitifs and spaghetti you will fall in love with the Sailing and the navigation will be really fun and relaxing after which you can finally rest and sleep comfortably cradled by Tyche! Our opinion on the holiday is amazing, unmissable for those who want sea, sailing and company, so we give 5 stars to everything, except for Miriana and Alessandro to whom we dedicate all the other stars that have kept us company on nights in the harbor! ! For now, thanks for everything and Good Wind, but we'll meet again soon! Enrico And Virna
