    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a wonderful experience with Gustavo, our sail captain for a 4-hour trip! He was funny, friendly, and made the day so enjoyable. We loved learning about the local culture from him—he’s very knowledgeable and shared so much insight. We had a great time on the water and would highly recommend Gustavo to anyone looking for a memorable sailing experience!

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Edu for the win! 🏆🌊 We’re so glad you enjoyed the swim spots, the amazing food, and Eddie’s top-tier hosting skills—he really knows how to make a day on the water unforgettable! Thanks a ton for the recommendation, and come back anytime for round two!

    The best- really!

    Im ashamed to say that it has taken me quite some time to write this review and that is not fair to our wonderful skipper or to you guys because THIS IS THE BEST EXPERIENCE! My family had such an amazing time we are still telling stories about it. I am writing this on the way back home from a trip to Greece where we told our speedboat skipper all about this great sailor we meet in Palma de Mallorca! Our time in Palma was certainly spent wisely on this experience. Not only was this a beautiful way to see the island but we enjoyed great company and the food was amazing - seriously, I try to duplicate his potatoes all the time! We do a boat tour with almost every vacation and no one has come close to topping this one!

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    This absolutely made our day—thank you! 🥹💙 No shame at all… worth the wait for a review this amazing! It means the world to us that your boat day in Palma has stayed with you (and even made it all the way to Greece 🇬🇷🚤). We’ll make sure your skipper hears he’s now famous for his potatoes—we’re still trying to get the recipe too! 🥔😄 Your kind words and unforgettable energy on board made it just as special for us. Come back any time—Palma and the crew will always be ready to welcome you back for round two! 🌊🍴⛵

    B_I, Jun 2025
    Eduardo was an awesome captain, friendly, and a great chef who cooked a great paella. The half day was perfect for our busy schedule, but would have loved an entire day.

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    We’re so happy you enjoyed the trip (and that famous paella—he’s got serious chef skills, right? 🍤🔥). We totally get the feeling… time does fly when you're having fun at sea!

    Best sunset!

    Page_B, May 2025
    Captain Gus made our Mallorca sunset sail truly unforgettable. He was warm, friendly, and full of fun local facts that added so much to the experience. The food he cooked was absolutely delicious—way beyond what we expected on a boat! His passion and hospitality made us feel so welcome. If you’re lucky enough to sail with Gus, you’re in for a perfect evening. Thank you, Gus

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Wow—what a beautiful tribute to Captain Gus! 💙 We’re so happy to hear your sunset sail was unforgettable. Gus truly has a gift for making people feel at home (with a side of amazing food and fun facts, of course! 😉). His passion for Mallorca shines through in everything he does, and it means the world to us that it made your evening so special. Thank you for sharing this and for sailing with us—you're welcome back anytime for more sunsets, stories, and delicious surprises! 🌊🍽️🌞

    The food is very good and the ride is fun. You get to see great views of Palma looking back into the mountains.

    Thank you Connor! it was great to have you on board. Regards from Mallorca

    Fun times on the water

    Felicia_E, Mar 2025
    Fun experience and super approachable for those who haven't been on a boat before. Food was excellent and Captain Edu was great. We were a group of 6 friends, it was beautiful to be out there on the water, highly recommend. Also, the company communicated throughout, including giving us options when the rain ruined our original programmed time.

    Response from Host, Mar 2025

    Thanks a lot Felicia! It was so great to spend the time with you on the boat. Hoping you come back some day! Regards from Mallorca

    Great boat trip, really fun day

    Alex_F, Sep 2024
    Excellent boat, the skipper Dominic did a great job, plenty of drinks and nice tapas. Six of us, had a brilliant day.

    Excellent sunset cruise on the Servus

    Dominic_F, Aug 2024
    We were group of three couples that took a sunset tour on the Servus (capacity 7). Sarah was our skipper and did a great job pointing out some local landmarks, answering random questions about sailing and Palma, and didn't rush us at all. We sailed a small cove near a beach club and were able to do some swimming and jumps from the boat before we sailed back to the marina while enjoying tapas (extra charge). There was a misunderstanding where Viator showed €15 per person for drinks and tapas, but the owner indicated it should be €30. The owner honored €15 pricing which I appreciated. I think €30 per person is a bit high, but we did enjoy the variety of food and chilled beverages. Overall A+ experience and one of the highlights of our trip.

    Great excursion close to cruise port

    Rose_D, Jul 2024
    Sailing on the Gambitero was so much fun. The water was so clear and clean. We swam, snorkeled and did standup paddle boarding. Captain Eddie and crew were awesome. Wish we did a full day instead of half. The marina was close walking distance from the Virgin Voyages cruise port we arrived in. Definitely would recommend this excursion to anyone.

    MarioNoel_C, Jul 2024
    We had the most amazing experience with Gus. He was very hospitable and made sure the family was having a great time enjoying the time at the beach. We opted for the meal and it was perfect. Definitely worth it. The food was amazing and the beaches were secluded.

    Swimming and Paella!

    John_F, Jul 2024
    Captain Sarah took great care of us. We stopped near a beach for swimming. We also enjoyed paella that was made on the boat. It was delicious and we had a wonderful time.

    Fun

    Sean_A, Jul 2024
    What a great fun experience . Sarah our caption was professional and knew so much about the Island . Would highly recommend doing this .

    Great private sailing experience!

    Robert_S, Jul 2024
    We had a great time with Ed and his first mate. They were extremely nice and professional. My young adult kids loved the cliff diving and the cave. The food was really good too! Highly recommend!! My one tip, if you are on the Oasis, do not attempt to walk to the marina. It's about a 55min walk. Take a taxi!

    Fun family activity

    Marie_D, Jun 2024
    Great time & Great fin. Sarah was an excellent skipper. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend this private sailing.

    Wonderful Sunset Cruise

    Karen_L, Jun 2024
    The view, weather and driver were all fantastic! The water was great and we stopped and swam in the wonderful water.

    Great boat day

    Sandra_C, May 2024
    We had a great time on the boat! Easy pickup spot in Palma and great captain! We had a small issue with the boat right before we left the dock, but the team was extremely accommodating and quickly fixed it - making for a wonderful experience overall. Would definitely recommend as an activity while in Mallorca.

    Indrani_D, May 2024
    This was the best part of our trip to the island. The boat location was very easy to find thanks to the detailed information provided ahead of time. Our captain was pleasant, experienced, paid so much attention to our preferences and needs- overall a memorable sunset boat ride in beautiful Mallorca.

    Great experience, highly recommended

    Sergio_G, May 2024
    Very cool experience, thank you! Our skipper Sarah was super friendly and fun and the food was also great.

    Tapas on the Sea

    Sarah_E, Apr 2024
    Had the most wonderful time under the guide of our captain. Beautiful tapas included along with wine or beer. The privacy of your own boat is just perfect for our small family. Highly recommend.

    Loved it! Highly Recommend

    Peter_L, Oct 2023
    Edoardo and Sara were amazing! They cooked the most amazing paella and took us out to a beautiful spot where we swam, paddle boarded and snorkeled. The water was so clear and warm! It was an amazing experience and a highlight of our trip!

    So fun!

    Amy_L, Sep 2023
    This was a great time! Food and drinks were great. We stopped to swim in a nice cove. The water is incredible! Highly recommend this trip.

    Amazing day in Palma!

    Amazing day with Gustavo! He was so kind to our family and made for a perfect day. Highly recommend. 5 stars.

    Fantastic Day

    Valerie_W, Jul 2023
    This was a fantastic experience! Eduardo took great care of us by going out of his way to make the adventure as memorable as possible. We really enjoyed the swimming, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and most of all the sailing! A day we will never forget!

    A Fabulous Experience out on the Water

    Hugh_B, Jul 2023
    This tour is highly recommended. We had a lovely boat and a knowledgeable and entertaining skipper, Gus, for whom nothing was too much trouble. He took us to a delightful grotto for some swimming and snorkelling followed by a beautifully prepared meal. He knew where it would not be overcrowded, so we simply swam at our own pace. On the way there and back, Gus explained the sights of Palma Harbour. We took the half-day tour, which was perfect for our requirements. All in all, a great value afternoon with heaps of great memories!

    Must do this in Mallorca!

    Ahmed_R, Jun 2023
    Just wow! Amazing experience, amazing way to see Mallorca, but what made this experience most special were the people. Edu & Maria are truly the best. Incredibly thoughtful, focused on ensuring you have the best experience, and all around wonderful people to spend time with. The boat is beautiful and you must have the Paella!

    We had a great time. The paella was one of the best we had in Spain. Relaxing tour with great views of Palma.
