"I had a awesome time at Kite Me Up. Andrea is a great teacher. He gives a lot of great imputs and the communication was always on top. The place is perfect especially for beginners since you can just walk out in the shallow water. By the end of the week I was able to go out by myself. But I still looking forward and take lessons with Andrea or Svenja again to improve my skills. So: Thank you guys :)"
"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **Kite Me Up is amazing!** I had an incredible experience at “Kite Me Up!” Andrea, the instructor, was fantastic from start to finish. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the lessons. His passion for kiteboarding is contagious, and he tailored the lessons perfectly to my skill level. I always felt safe and supported, and by the end, I had learned so much more than I expected. If you're looking to learn kiteboarding, this is the place to go! 100% satisfied and can't wait to come back. Highly recommend!"
"We had a great time at this kite school! Everything was always spontaneous and tailored to our wishes. We had lessons with Matteo and Svenja and can only recommend them both. We were on the water in no time and quickly learnt a lot. Andrea and our teachers were always there to help and in a great mood. If we get to sicily again we will continue with this school!"
