Navigation of 13 June 24
Captain Fabio got us out despite the sea and wind force 7
Even though several people were sick, he didn't let us back into port until 5pm, sailing fruitlessly in the gulf without any interesting or pleasant destination
A truly unhelpful and stingy captain: in order not to lose money he ruined everyone's day.

Day of happiness, of Peace, of perfect escape in all the expression of the enchanted Soul, lulled by the waves between the islands, the coves and Marseill". In short, real happiness, at the "Alliance bar" !
Captain Alexis and his entire crew were very attentive throughout these beautiful days, surrounded by pleasant encounters! An initiatory experience to be repeated soon on sunny days...
THANK YOU ALLIANCE!
Savior of Marseille

The views were very beautiful, the boat is really beautiful, spacious, comfortable, there weren't as many stops as advertised, but we passed the mentioned places well and had a 7 hour trip.
Our captain and our sailor were welcoming, they answered questions and provided good information about the progress of the trip
A downside for the meal and drinks (vegetarian meal bordering on vegan, 3 somewhat dry salads without cheese, meat, egg, the fruit juice was more of an oasis and too sweet) A lack of indulgence in favor of the ethical, because made by an association, which is to their credit.
No bottled water but a fountain with glasses washed in a bucket.
Despite my criticisms, which I hope will allow an improvement, I recommend this activity in this boat and not in other overloaded or modern boats, but the value for money is not great for everything that is food, for the rest it is 'is OK.

Superb day in the company of a very kind crew, the best way to discover the coves at sea with this boat which takes the time to show you a magnificent landscape

Our experience was an excellent one!! Everything was as expected. The captain and sailors spoke English to explain what to expect and tge rules on board. They also showed some people how to man a goelette... such as opening the sails. We visited 2 locations to swim/snorkel. It was fine eventhough the water was really cold/frigid. The trip was perfect otherwise.

We bought this excursion last minute and we were not sure what to expect as many tours can get quite full and a bit cheesy. This experience was truly unique and special! We were blown away by the beauty of the boat, and were pleased that they didn’t pack it full of tourists. The captain and first mate were experienced and let the passengers be an active part of sailing, my husband and I got to raise the main sail! Sailing was amazing and a freeing experience. Not suitable if you get super seasick, but this is a fun experience for everyone!
