What to do and see in Ischia, Campania: The Best Private Tours

August 31, 2021 Enedina Augsburger

Serving as the main port town for the island of the same name, the town of Ischia has been inhabited for centuries, famous for its beaches and the healing waters of its spas. The town is divided in two: Ischia Porto is the harbor district and commercial center of the island, filled with brightly lit taverns and bars, and Ischia Ponte, the historic quarter, with its ancient castle and its stone streets seemingly frozen in time.

Well this was one of our highlights for our time in Europe. Our guide, Paolo, met us at the ferry port to start our exciting day. The ferry ride over was pleasant, then we were met by our driver, another great character. We visited the castle, Paolo was very knowledgeable. We stopped at several places for photos. We decided to stop for lunch, at our expense. Paolo took us to a great restaurant and I tried the local speciality of rabbit and spaghetti, nice. Paolo enaged with us and had a great sense of humour. Highly recommend this tour if you are only visiting for the day.

This experience is ideal for those who plan to visit Ischia by stopping off at the most interesting island locations exclusively. We will sail early in the morning on board a comfortable dinghy and with a fast navigation we will reach one of the two main towns: Ischia Porto or Ischia Ponte. Breakfast with the "cornetto all''ischitana", a traditional island croissant born from the union of two perfectly balanced doughs: brioche dough and puff pastry. After breakfast, a short free time for the participants on the mainland and then ready to take off again, first skirting the imposing Aragonese Castle, then touching, completing the tour of the island, visiting three of the most fascinating bays: La Scarrupata beach , Scannella and the Bay of San Montano. Bathing with our snorkeling equipment and SUP board will allow you to experience these places with extreme freedom.

Tomasso was at the ferry when we arrived. He took us to many places in ischia. We had time to walk around at a few locations. We went to the natural hot spas which was terrific, and free. Just a long walk down steps from the top. We had a snack at the restaurant after the spa, which was so good, all fresh ingredients. Would definitely recommend tomasso!!

We decided to rent from Sea dreams because we felt comfortable after talking with Mr. Pepe. He was very accommodating and nice. We booked it a day before with no issue. It was our 1st time ever to ride a boat but Mr. Pepe made it looks so easy and simple and it was as he described. He gave us a tour of the boat and how to drive it and show us the attraction points on the map. The boat was in a great condition, well maintained and clean. Ischia is a great place to visit specially going around it by Sea dream's boat was the best decision ever !!
