Minicrociere Toscana
Discover the ancient Roman villa on Giannutri with Minicrociere Toscana. A guided boat trip immerses you in history and stunning sea views, perfect for curious explorers.
Minicrociere Toscana is a Giglio Porto–based excursion operator in Toscana offering boat-based and land-and-sea experiences around the Tuscan Archipelago.
The company organizes snorkeling tours, boat trips, mini-cruises and guided e‑bike excursions that depart from Giglio Porto and nearby ports such as Castiglione della Pescaia and Porto Santo Stefano. Popular departures include the Giro dell'Isola del Giglio con snorkeling and the MiniCrociera Giglio Giannutri aboard the elegant M/N Revenge, which features a guided visit and an on-board Pranzo del Marinaio.
Snorkeling experiences include guided sessions led by a snorkeling instructor and expert guides, with stops in hidden coves and crystal-clear waters around Giglio and Giannutri. Visits to Giannutri focus on the Villa Romana of the Domizi Enobarbi family, the ancient port and the island's aqueduct, guided by park experts. E‑Bike tours circle the Isola del Giglio and reach landmarks such as the Faro del Capel Rosso and Giglio Castello, combining coastal views, swims and packed lunches or picnics.
Other offerings include mini-cruises to Isola d'Elba from Castiglione della Pescaia and seasonal snorkeling programs on Giannutri that run from June to September with scheduled weekly departures. Minicrociere Toscana arranges both day trips and curated island visits — from Aperitivo al Tramonto to focused archaeological tours — using named vessels, certified snorkeling instruction and official park guides to support safe, informative experiences.
Some departures are listed from Castiglione della Pescaia and Porto Santo Stefano, reflecting a range of embarkation points across the Tuscan coast to reach Giglio, Giannutri and Elba islands conveniently directly.
