We went out on the yacht in the morning and saw whales! I didn't really believe we would come across them, but yes, they were there! Pure excitement. The crew were super friendly, explained everything and treated us to fruit and water. Great atmosphere.

Hi everyone! Just leaving a review. Guys, it was simply WOW! I had never been on a yacht before and didn't expect it to be this amazing. Waves, sun, dolphins, just like in the movies. Thanks to the whole crew, everything was top level. We didn't want to go back to shore :)

We booked a yacht for sunset. Guys, it was a dream. Sea, sky, sun, and you on deck with a glass in hand. It felt very romantic, and my partner and I were thrilled. Organisation was 10/10. Thanks to Olga, who explained everything, advised us on departure time, told us what to bring and was always in touch.

We rented a yacht for 4 hours with friends. We had a great time with music, swimming with masks and sunbathing. It's nice that everything is included, so there was nothing to think about. Thanks to the captain. You can tell he's experienced.

Very clean and tidy, just like the photos. The yacht isn't old, it smells fresh, nothing creaks and it doesn't rock much. Perfect for anyone who just wants to relax.

I was very nervous before the tour because we had never rented a yacht before. But everything went smoothly. They met us, took us on board and explained everything. The water is turquoise and dolphins swam close by. We have amazing photos and lots of memories.
