Testimonial:
We had a really great week on Alfa Mario, a super nice yacht with very comfortable and spacious cabins. The crew provided great service and was very nice and engaged—also with the small children. Food and wine were high-level, much appreciated by all, and professionally served—also including the bar-tendering—even late at night. M. K.
