We had an absolutely fantastic day at sea with Lukas. He is highly experienced, calm, and incredibly friendly, making us feel comfortable and welcome from the very beginning. His language skills were truly impressive, making communication effortless throughout the trip. Everything was thoughtfully arranged. We were provided with refreshments, fishing equipment and guidance, sailing instruction, opportunities to swim and snorkel, and plenty of enjoyable conversations along the way. The boat itself is wonderful—stable, exceptionally well maintained, and spotless. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a memorable day on the water. Thank you, Lukas, for an unforgettable experience!

Was very laid back, had a speaker which was great. Took us to some really nice spots that we wouldn’t have gone to otherwise. Overall really enjoyed our time. Bit unclear on pricing for fuel and skipper - was expecting €60 but paid €100.

We had such an amazing time on this boat tour! From the moment we stepped on board, he made us feel so welcome. He played great music that created the perfect atmosphere, took us to the most beautiful hidden spots, and made the entire experience unforgettable. He is an excellent captain—we always felt safe and comfortable—and he was especially kind and patient with my daughter, which meant so much to us. If you’re looking for a memorable day on the water with someone who truly cares about his guests, I couldn’t recommend this experience more. Thank you for such a wonderful day!

We had an amazing time with Stephane on the weekend. We had a great time sailing and docked in a beautiful area to swim for lunch. He had some snorkels, a speaker, small fridge and kitchen items to use, which was very convenient. He was also very fun and a great host!
