This was a very relaxing sail. Although we didn’t get much of a sunset due to the smoke from the Canadian wildfire smoke, we got some great views of Barcelona. I would highly recommend this trip if you want to relax and enjoy a sailboat. I will say that when they mention light snacks on board, that just means some crackers, but the beverages will be plenty.

David & Oriol we’re amazing host for the boat tour. The gave us a tour, played good music, and have good conversations with us ladies. As an American it was a nice mix of locals and travelers. Plus we got a Polaroid of the experience, great location for food and drinks after the trip. I’ll definitely be back one day soon!

Great boat trip. We got lucky in that we had a very small group, only the two of us plus the captain and a helper. It was a full 2hrs on the boat. Not much wind so we're we're under power vs sailing. Light snacks (crackers/nuts) and red wine to drink. Would recommend to others. Be aware there's nothing else around the marina so it's kinda hard to get to/from.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Thank you Robert & co! It was a pleasure to have you on board with us!

My husband and I booked a last-minute sunset sail due to another trip being canceled, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip! Our skippers were fantastic, the views and weather were totally lovely, and we enjoyed having the front of the boat and a bottle of cava to ourselves! Highly recommend seeing Barca from a sailboat if you're in town!

Thank you so much Natalye!

Fantastic trip, crew were amazing and made the journey more comfortable despite a slight choppy dock at the end.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Glad you enjoyed the trip and appreciated the amazing crew's efforts, despite the slight choppy dock at the end. Safe travels!

We weren’t able to book the 7:30 trip because it was full, so we took the 4:30 trip and we are SO glad we did!!
David greeted us with a smile and informed us that we were the only 3 on the boat for our 4:30 trip! We had the boat all to ourselves. Private boat trip!!!
Prepared with some snacks and wine (and offers of beer), we set sail. The view of the Med from Barcelona is beautiful but the view of Barcelona from the Med??? You don’t want to miss it!
We had full sun and perfect winds, and David encouraged us to make full use of the boat. My husband stayed with David to enjoy the shade (and David’s easy conversation), and my daughter and I took our wine to the bow for the remainder of the 2 hours. It was pure relaxation and gorgeous views.
Don’t hesitate. Book this trip and get away from it all for a couple of hours.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Wow! Thank you so much Maribeth! We know how great surprise private boat trips can be! David had a blast with y’all too! Gracias!

Great trip with Captain Danni. This is a much more engaging sail on an actual sailboat (vs the large party catamarans with loud music etc). We went out on a cloudy evening but still very enjoyable on the water , returned to port under a beautiful sunset and we’re treated to a rainbow as well. Highly recommend for couples and families looking to enjoy a quiet sail and hear about Barcelona from the local captain.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you so much for coming Stuart!

A must if you are visiting Barcelona and want to experience it to the max!! Went there with my girlfriend and had an amazing time, not only enjoying the view and sail but also conversing with the skipper, David, who was an wonderful guy. He explained everything we were looking at as we sailed, let us ride the boat and made us feel really comfortable and welcomed. He definitely added to the experience. It was unforgettable! Thank you!!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Thanks Ardit! It was a pleasure to have you on board!

We loved the sailing experience! Álvaro, Alessio and Alison were wonderful hosts, went to find us in the harbour, and kept us great company during the whole trip. We loved the whole experience! The view of Barcelona from the sea is stunning! We had wonderful weather and beautiful pink sky sunset! Highly recommended!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Thanks Tim! A pleasure to have you on board!

Alvaro was awesome; friendly & knowledgeable captain and host. We saw the most beautiful sunset and the rising of a full moon. It was magic. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something really special!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Thanks Nico! Hope to see you again on board!

The young man was very friendly and had already prepared tapas. We first sailed along the harbour and then he set sail and it went out to sea. The Barcelona skyline and the sunset were really beautiful. In the background, matching music played, so that the atmosphere was successful. There were drinks and tapas on board. The two hours passed quite quickly. It was worth it.

Una experiencia inolvidable.
Tuvimos suerte de que no se presentó nadie más y estuvimos solos en el velero los dos.
El marinero muy amable.
Repetimos seguro!
