It was a great experience. Mike was accommodating- we asked to go out later than the published time. We swam in clear blue waters. It was so incredibly beautiful. Lunch was delicious and the Prosecco kept flowing. Highly recommend! Thanks, Mike for an memorable day.

This was an amazing...

This was an amazing experience for our group! Captain Mike was friendly, accommodating, and diligently considered weather precautions during our trip. Prior to our trip, it was easy to communicate with Captain Mike through the Viator app. He confirmed our trip and kept us informed of the developing weather. We were greeted with a light breakfast (croissants/ fruit) and Captain Mike prepared us a light and enjoyable lunch, with his own twist on a Aperol spritz. I highly recommend this activity for those looking to enjoy the Liguria coast.

Had a fabulous time out...

Had a fabulous time out on the water with Mike. He looked after us like old friends and he went out of his way to make sure we had a perfect day. We highly recommend this cruise and our fantastic skipper.

Great day on water.

Mike the captain was friendly and outstanding. Met us at train station and walked to boat. Great day on water. Served very good refreshments and food. Would definitely recommend.

Fun day sailing with Captain Mike!

We had an absolutely fantastic day with Captain Mike! From the very beginning, he was incredibly responsive and helpful, providing clear directions to the port and even going the extra mile by meeting us at the station. The sailing experience itself was so much fun. We enjoyed great conversations with Captain Mike, learning about his life and his passion for sailing. He took us to a beautiful, quiet swimming spot, and then treated us to a delicious lunch filled with fresh meats, cheeses, fruit, and focaccia. If you're in the area, I couldn't recommend sailing with Captain Mike more highly. Thank you for an amazing day!

Highly recommended for a day sailing boat trip

The whole trip is 100% personalised, Michael really makes the whole trip adaptable to your own preferences and we felt like we were sailing with a good friend. Also Andrew the crew was super tentative and helpful! The swim was fantastic! We were definitely having one of the greatest moments in our trip with this sail. Highly recommended!! Just a small remark, maybe take a sea sick pill before the sail, as it can be rather bumpy due to the wave 😉

Wonderful day at sea!

Great day on the water! Mike is a wonderful host and this would make for a great activity for any group. Lunch was delicious and we had a great day despite a little bit a rain.

Wonderful day on the water!

The sailing day was the highlight of our trip! Everything was thought of and Michael is an excellent host!! The fruit and lunch were delicious. The April spritz was the best I’ve had here!! If you are in the area I highly recommend taking a day to spend on the water with Michael!

Amazing day trip!

Two couples in our group. The day was fantastic and the captain monitored the wind to make sure we were safe and comfortable the whole time. The service of food and drinks exceeded our expectations and added to the fun. Boat was in good shape, and we had great conversations learning about the area. The tour hit the spots we wanted and the lunch break/swim was a great treat. Highly recommend a day at sea!

Very Enjoyable Coastal Sailing

Amber_H, Aug 2023
My cousin and I booked this tour truly wanting to sail up the coast a bit, and Michael exceeded our expectations! He was an incredible captain and great company. He even met us at the train station to walk us to his boat. We had delicious food & Prosecco on board, soaked up the Italian sun, and loved swimming multiple times in the pristine waters. Highly recommend!!

Fun and amazing day trip!

Michael was an excellent and accommodating captain. He customized our experience and went out of his way to accommodate us when when one of our family members wasn’t feeling well. Great captain, great sailboat, great scenery. Magnifico!

Don’t miss this!
