We had a fantastic time. Our two kids did wake boarding and tubeing for the whole trip (almost). David instructed us very well and together with the fantastic scenery, we very much enjoyed the sunny afternoon on the water.

Thoroughly enjoyed our day out on Maximes boat. We were concerned that a full day would be too much... not at all, we had a ball! The boat was spotless and service from Maxime was good.

Pierre and his father were amazing to work with on our rental. Pierre was incredibly responsive and accommodating to the needs of our group. The experience on the lake with a captain was the best part of the trip. They were able to ensure everyone in the group had a great time on the boat. Highly recommend. If in the area again, I will surely rent with them.

"David welcomed us very warmly. His daughter Anna drove the boat, which allowed the whole crew to wakeboard and water ski at sunset on Lake Geneva! Awesome!"

Christophe was a perfect captain, and provided an excellent tour of Lake Annecy! He was flexible with his timing, picked us up in Talloires, and took us to the best/most beautiful areas for swimming while on our 3-hour trip. He gave us lots of great information about the area and recommendations for restaurants, etc. We truly enjoyed our time with him!

Once at sea, we were amazed by the beauty of the surrounding landscapes. The lake, with its turquoise waters and green banks, offers a breathtaking panorama. We sailed peacefully, taking the time to admire the nature around us. Maxim had recommended several stops, and we decided to explore some isolated coves, perfect for a refreshing swim.
Une fois en mer, nous avons été émerveillés par la beauté des paysages environnants. Le lac, avec ses eaux turquoise et ses rives verdoyantes, offre un panorama à couper le souffle. Nous avons navigué paisiblement, prenant le temps d’admirer la nature qui nous entourait. Maxim nous avait recommandé plusieurs arrêts, et nous avons décidé d’explorer quelques criques isolées, parfaites pour une baignade rafraîchissante.
