Esperienza promossa a pieni voti. Una settimana in barca a vela con uno skipper esperto e disponibile come Mario, è il modo migliore per visitare le isole Eolie. Abbiamo toccato tutte le isole navigando a vela (vento permettendo) e assaporando il fascino dei vulcani: Stromboli in attività by night e salita sull'orlo del cratere di Vulcano. Anche il mare offre bagni particolari con acque a 40°C a Vulcano e le emissione gassose della solfatarta di Lisca binaca. Mario è molto attento alla meteo e alla ricerca dei migliori ormeggi per il massimo confort degli ospiti. Vacanza consigliata.

Settimana alle Eolie bellissima e indimenticabile, seppur i primi 3 giorni sono stati caratterizzati dal tempo burrascoso, ma Mario ha saputo scegliere baie e posti sicuri. Skipper esperto e bravissimo a coinvolgerci nella gestione della barca e delle vele. Le Eolie sono una più bella dell'altra e l'escursione con guida allo Stromboli per vedere le eruzioni in notturna è stata emozionante ed unica, cosa che ha fatto dimenticare la fatica per salire sù e poi scendere.

Itinerario ben studiato, e con un crescendo di emozioni. Le isole, tutte diverse, regalano preziose ed intime sensazioni. Dalla mondana Panarea alla semplice Filicudi, ormeggiando tra Lipari e Salina, con una puntatina per un bagno termale a Vulcano, ed un girotondo notturno di sua maestà Stromboli che ci saluta a modo suo.... 7 giorni volati via velocemente, con Mario sempre pronto a consigliarci e a condurci alla scoperta di queste meravigliose isole. Capitano in tutto e per tutto. Grazie Mario. David e Claudia
