Sail among the most beautiful islands of the Aeolian volcanic archipelago

Itinerary of your cruise

The captain proposes a complete itinerary, with one or two stopovers per day. These land stops will allow you to criss-cross volcanic islands full of surprises (lava flows, mud baths, prehistoric villages...). With their volcanoes still active, Vulcano and Stromboli regularly let smoke escape. You will have the opportunity to explore the seabed in transparent water, perfectly suited to snorkeling.

The itinerary may be changed without prior notice due to technical or weather conditions.
The photographs and visual products presented have no contractual value.

Frequently asked questions

• A few words about your crew

  During your cruise aboard Kaptan Yilmaz, you will sail alongside Fabrizio, your skipper, and Marco, your chef.
  
  Fabrizio has over 20 years of sailing experience in the Mediterranean and knows the region like the back of his hand. Passionate about the sea, he is committed to the safety and comfort of his passengers. Trained in the United Kingdom (Master 200 GT), he regularly updates his skills through annual training courses. A specialist in schooners, he organises itineraries and adapts the sailing to offer everyone a pleasant and peaceful cruise.
  
  Marco prepares delicious dishes inspired by Sicilian tradition every day. He attaches great importance to taste, the freshness of ingredients and the satisfaction of our guests. His specialities come from Messina, but he is happy to adapt to different diets: vegetarian, vegan or allergies.
  
  Marco is also trained as a sailor, which allows him to help the crew and contribute even more to the smooth running of the cruise.
  
  Please note: depending on availability, the crew may vary from week to week, but we always ensure the same quality of service and safety.

• What papers are required for a trip to the Aeolian Islands?

  All French nationals can enter freely with a valid national identity card or passport (for any stay of less than 3 months).
  
  Please note: national identity cards issued to adults between 1 January 2004 and 31 December 2013 will still be valid 5 years after the expiry date (indicated on the back). Nevertheless, we strongly recommend that you use your passport instead of an identity card whose expiry date has passed.
  
  This information is subject to change by the authorities of the country visited. It is not uncommon for border crossing rules to change. We therefore strongly advise you to refer to the "travel advice" section of the France Diplomatie website: https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/fr/conseils-aux-voyageurs/.
  Nationals of other countries should enquire about formalities at the consulate of their home country.
