It was a great experience. The two guys of the staff were incredibly friendly and gave us a lot of information. Of course the cruise itself was stunning. We highly recommend this tour.

We throughly enjoyed our sailing experience on New Years Eve. What a great way to end the year. The Captain and Crew were super helpful and we were very lucky with the weather which allowed us to sail through the heads. the light supper was also very pleasant - Highly recommended

The SunSet cruise was incredible on this beautiful monohull sailing yacht! We were lucky to be just the two of us on board, making it a private cruise. The two skippers are true professionals and very friendly. For the price of the cruise, the picnic dinner was generous and came with a bottle of Cape Classic. A truly wonderful memory.

Well organized and executed whale watching trip. Convenient introduction and onboarding, knowledge captain & staff, comfortable, secure and well-maintained boat. Encouters with humpback whales and dolphins was a great experience. Captain Johannes positioned the boat well and kept proper distance. Both my family and I can recommend - would do it again!
