“Hermes was a fun and entertaining Captain. From Amalfi to Capri. Although it was cool and windy, with huge swells, the 10 of us were spread all over the boat. Hermes tried to get to all of us to point out the best points of interest. The beer and prosecco flowed liberally.... the boat was in great shape. We went to Capri with my wife and me, our adult kids, my daughter's fiancé and his family. 2 days later we enjoyed a wedding in Ravello. However, the cruise, visit and shopping in Capri, and surrounding beauty was surely one of many highlights. So glad we went this route.”
