Charter a yacht in Italy
From the sophistication of the Italian Riviera and romance of the Amalfi Coast to the culture of Venice and the sun-kissed charms of Sardinia, Sicily, and the Aeolian Islands, a private yacht charter in Italy offers the perfect way to explore it all.
In the north, couples linger in cafés at sunset, sipping chilled rosé wine from nearby vineyards. Sardinia offers rugged landscapes, emerald seas, and white sandy beaches, while Costa Smeralda lures with its five-star resorts and the evening ritual of the passeggiata. Sicily is famed for exquisite cuisine, incandescent volcanoes, and golden beaches, while the seven Aeolian Islands lie surrounded by a shimmering sea

What’s included in a luxury yacht charter in Italy?
With a Burgess yacht charter everything from a professional crew to luxury on board amenities (ranging from wellness facilities to cinemas, helipads and, watertoys) is taken care of. All you need to do is jump aboard, relax, and enjoy. We’ll take care of everything else.
I've never chartered before, where do I start?
To get started, one of our brokers will ask you questions, like how many people you want to bring aboard, whether you know where you want to go and what you want to do. From sailing to motor, catamaran to explorer – we’ll shortlist yachts of a style, size and capability that match your preferences and suggest bucket-list cruising grounds.
How many guests can be on board?
The majority of yachts can cruise with 8-12 guests, depending on their length. For bigger parties, some yachts built to the Passenger Yacht Code (PYC) can carry up to 36 guests – these yachts are usually above 80m (260ft) long. For events, yachts can have more people on board provided they stay in port.
Why do I need a charter broker? Why can’t I book direct?
Planning the perfect charter requires specialist knowledge, trusted contacts on board and on the ground, as well as first-hand knowledge of yachts, crews and locations, as well as legal contracts and local regulations to build an experience that suits you perfectly. Another reason to choose a broker is that sometimes there can be unforeseen issues with yachts or destinations and having an experienced broker to protect your interests and build a plan B is hugely reassuring.
Creating the unforgettable is what we do at Burgess. It’s what our knowledge, experience and passion are all about. We take all the hassle out of the planning so you can just turn up and have the best holiday ever.
I have a few allergies, how can I let the yacht know about these and also about my preferences?
A few weeks before your charter starts, we’ll send you a detailed questionnaire that lets us know the preferences and special requirements of everyone in your party. It will cover dietary and medical requirements, allergies and any special requests, birthdays or entertainment, for instance. This helps us and the crew of your yacht make sure your charter will be everything you hope it will be.
