Magnificent experience - A magnificent boat trip, accompanied by Inès and Dimitri, who thought of everything for our comfort and an excellent stay. We visited some very beautiful beaches, we swam, snorkeled, paddled and enjoyed the sun on the boat! Great aperitif and lunch prepared on the boat, drinks available throughout the day! No worries, just enjoy! Many thanks again for the beautiful memories!

Excellent! - Excellent ! It was a great tour under the sails, fantastic pasta with sea food and also vegetarian for my husband 🥰 The water was little bit fresh, but transparent and turquoise, you could see 6 meters infront of you when snorkel.

Divine sailing around the Madallena in Sardinia - This sailing experience was superb! The owners were charming and so helpful with their information of the area, though their English was a bit limited; it added to the fun on both sides! There were only 2 couples plus the owners which made the trip even better; a delightful German couple and us Aussies. The boat was super clean, the lunch and wine fabulous.

Wonderful experience - You can't miss it, if you have the opportunity to do it, do it, the super nice captain and Katherina make you feel comfortable at all times, and the beaches, not to mention, a total spectacle. We will be back

very nice - Super nice! The crew was in a good mood, nothing was missing! The bays are a dream to swim in. If you have a dry bag with you, you can take your phone everywhere and take photos! A windbreaker is also recommended in late summer.

A lovely day, lovely day 🫶 - As a gest on this Island for many time because we Go at a festival. So never before made it to sailing before🐗 There had been some mixup in the booking, so the two of us Got seperated from a group of 10, we where seposed to sail with. But it worked out because both boats sailed together, so we had appertives and lunch together. And we ended up with a mixmax of a great group of many travelers. I must say that the staff made us feel so welcome, that it was like being out with family. Deffentatly Will recomend this journey. 100%

Beautiful but not worth the $$$$ - Obviously the area is beautiful but we also did a full day on the bunei coast for about a third of this cost 3 days before...just don't think it is value for money tour when we only visited 3 places in total. Ok food but got the vibe that the couple running the tour were a bit over it. At one point female guide was a bit rude when she hadn't heard us say yes we'd like to go to shore with others. Also had to confirm instructions night before and day of, as they did not reach out to us with info via whatsapp like most other tour operators. When we asked about parking, the recommendation of the Port parking was the worst possible suggestion.....conjested and full. Luckily, we'd allowed plenty of time to get there.

Where Are They? - Viator nor the vendor gave correct directions on how to meet. They come in a zodiac to pick you up to take you out to the boat and later than time given by Viator. We asked multiple other operators that had sailboats there,panicked, and almost left. Food and drink on board was marginal. Wonderful sailing day and skipper and mate were friendly.
