What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the stunning coastal scenery and the unique experience of exploring sea caves on boat tours. The charming towns and beautiful beaches are also frequently praised. Some travelers noted that tours are primarily in Italian, which can be a barrier for non-speakers.
"Try and see!
If you're staying in Gargano during your holiday you must try the Costa del Gargano tour!
You get to see the absolutely beautiful coast filled with many sandy and rocky beaches, cliff-hanging historical cities and historical objects such as the Trabucchi and the Torre along the coast. And of course, the tour offers a splendid trip inside water caves which are inaccessible by foot!
After the tour you have a 2h swimming/lunch break at the Baia dei Campi pebble beach which also has a seaside view restaurant and Beach Bar.
Note: If you buy your ticket online, it is only a reservation and won't be charged. So don't forget to bring money to the port before your embarkment!"
