Cruise from Trapani to Favignana and Levanzo with lunch and swim stops, plus time to explore villages, beaches, and the tuna museum.

“Overall an amazing trip. While on the boat there were some great pieces of information shared, though it was a bit hard to hear. The lunch was delicious, though if you are allergic to nuts please note there are pieces of almond in the mixture. The islands were a dream, though I do wish there was more time to explore. We were on foot as my daughter was too little for a bike and took big to sit with me so we didn't get to see much on the first island. We arrived in Levanzo during part of riposo so some stores were closed. The tour made me want to…”

“Nico was an amazing tour guide! He was very informative about the island. He was very respective and made sure everyone was having a good time. The clear blue/aqua water was amazing and seeing the fish swim was awesome. The only thing I would suggest would have more snorkels for the masks and more noodles because the current was strong and I would have loved to swim to Lovers Cove but the current was very strong coming back! Thank you for the great day Nico!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 814 reviews · 8 hours · from $47

8-hour mini cruise from Trapani to Favignana and Levanzo, with coves, swimming, and a Trapanese pesto lunch onboard.

“Excellent trip out to the nearest of the Egadi Islands, Favignana and Levanzo, with sufficient time at each to look around - at Favignana I had time to hike most of the way up to the castle on the mountain. We stopped on board for a simple but very tasty pasta dish for lunch, with some fruit salad to follow, water or/& cup of wine. We went round much of Favignana's coastline and received commentary on certain features as we went. The crew were friendly and helpful. It was a great day out and excellent value. Highly recommended.”
