About this experience
This tour is my favorite and the favorite of my clients. We would have time to see the most suggestive villages and islands of the territory accompanied by local wine, good music and baths in crystal clear waters. We will leave from La Spezia, Portovenere or Lerici with a beautiful typical boat built in Italy, Didi Major. We will skirt the entire gulf with several photo stops in front of the villages. We will stop in beautiful bays to dive and have the best ice cream in the area in Lerici. (optional) Included will be my drinks and everything related to the boat. This tour is pleasant both in the company of friends and as a couple. There is everything you need and you will not regret it. ;)

Wonderful boat outing in Lerici!
We were a family of 10 aged 8 to 80 and everyone loved it! The boat had great, comfortable seating both in the back with shade and up front for lounging. The 4 hour tour was perfect for us and included two swim stops perfectly timed. The crew was engaging and courteous. We would definitely do it again and highly recommend.

The best day ever
Perfecto! Davide was incredible from start to finish; very easy to book directly with him & he had incredible communication leading up to the trip. Our family of four had the best day seeing the most beautiful scenery & swimming in the bluest water in the world. Davide was so helpful with our younger daughter who was a bit timid to jump into the sea ; he helped her find her bravery. The tour also included drinks & lunch & a stop for gelato. Perfecto. Best day of our trip to Portovenere.

The BEST tour with the best captain. Do not miss his tour!
This was the BEST tour we have been on. Davide was the most amazing host and captain. He was thoughtful, kind, knowledgeable, accommodating and had a great sense of humor. He was mindful of all of the guests on the tour and showed us several wonderful areas. He was very generous with the drinks and snacks and his sweet Italia father made some of them!! We had the most incredible time. Thank you Davide!

Portovenere end of day
We had a magical time on Davide's boat which is a lovely and warm person! We left from the port of Lerici to Portovenere and its islands and then passed to Tellaro which is magical..Davide then offered us the aperitif on board the boat watching the sunset. That moment was magical. Do not hesitate to book with Davide!

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Spezia.
How much does Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia cost?
+
Prices start at $875 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Spezia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Spezia is not rushed.
Is Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Spezia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Spezia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Spezia and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Exclusive : Dolce vita in Gulf of poets, La Spezia start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Spezia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in La Spezia?
+
On Outty we rank every La Spezia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include La Spezia: Taste Cinque Terre on a Food Tour by Do Eat Better, Portovenere & Three Islands Small Group Boat Tour from La Spezia, 5 Islands from La Spezia: full day boat trip with swimming stops. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit La Spezia?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in La Spezia?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
