Beautiful Fall Sailing Experience - Excellent sailing excursion on a gorgeous Fall day in Cannes. Maxim is a great host, has a really low key demeanor and was extremely flexible with whatever we wanted to do or where to go with the sailboat. And as sailors ourselves, he willingly let us do a lot of the steering - without any critique when we occasionally got a bit distracted by all there is to see fr-om the water side. The snorkeling on backside of the island was really nice, as was the lunch. It's a great way to see Cannes from a different perspective than the hustle-bustle of the city. I'd highly recommend this trip.

An exceptional day - Excellent day to discover the islands of Lerins. The place is just magical. Maxime is considerate and has at heart to share his love for these islands. The sailboat allows you to take your time and deal with the elements which makes the experience even more beautiful. The big plus an excellent Provencal lunch with fresh and tasted products. We recommend with your eyes closed. Thank you very much Maxime!

Amazing day with Max!!! - This sailing experience with Max was incredible! It was our best day spent in the French Riviera. He was accommodating, fun, attentive, and so patient! We are two best friends on a girls trip and he taught us the basics of sailing and how to tie some knots! The lunch was delicious and the Max’s homemade anchovies dip & homemade tzatziki were out of this world! Do yourself a favor and book this excursion! He even treated us to an extra hour on board and offered to stop and get us some ice cream! He was a 10/10 captain!

The most special treat - I bought this as a present for my partner who turned 40 this summer and wow - worth every penny. The day was perfect for sailing and Maxime was awesome. He let my partner steer the boat (which he was really happy about), made us some lovely lunch and was just super chilled and friendly. Maxime was also great at communicating with us prior to the day which really put my mind at rest. Unforgettable stuff!

Sail like the rich and famous - Never imagined that a private full day sailing in Cannes would be feasible for us , but it was . Max was a great host , so passionate about his sailboat , sailing and hometown. We spent most of the day on the boat (our preference) sailing around the islands among amazing yachts and sailboats, but made a stop to walk and swim with locals and tourists along a beach . Lunch on board was a terrific variety of crudite with tadziki and anchovy paste . Our 16 year old said that she could eat a veggie lunch like this everyday . Thank you Max for providing us one of the top experiences of our 2 week family vacation . Remember to bring sunscreen .

Amazing day sailing in Cannes - Spent a day sailing with a friend and Máxime was an amazing guide. We anchored for swimming east of the docks for a bit by request, and it was wonderful. Docked on the island after and walked the island, swam out to see some of the underwater statues on Cannes beach. Lunch was wonderful, clean and refreshing. Would go again in heartbeat. 100% recommend.
