Expérience unique

Une super expérience ! Le Capitaine et sa seconde sont d'une gentillesse sans nom ce qui rend cette petite croisière extraordinaire. Un pur moment de découverte et de bonheur partagé avec eux. Un grand merci ! A noter qu'il s'agit d'une excursion bien loin des circuits touristiques classiques, et c'est très agréable. Bravo à eux !

Le luxe à un prix abordable

Mille mercis à George & Adam pour leur gentillesse et ce tour d’exception ! Avec la promo bookme nous avons eu l’impression d’avoir une sortie grand luxe pour un prix raisonnable. Petit comité de passagers sur le bateau et service irréprochable, on se sent très privilégiés. Boissons incluant champagne ou vin à volonté sans supplément sur le’ bateau, petits fours, balade sur une île du Fjord, et l’équipage nous laisse visiter tout le bateau et participer à son fonctionnement (conduire, sortir la voile...) Je pense que la sortie de 14h parmi les 3 proposées est le meilleur rapport qualité prix. Merci !

Il faut le faire absolument

Absolument génial. Le commandant et son équipage sont très attentionnés et passionnés par la restauration de ce bateau des années 30. Pendant 3h/3h30 vous vivrez un moment inoubliable : histoire du bateau par le commandant, il se transforme en indiana jones pour vous accompagner à la découverte de la bush. Le retour sur le lac est ponctué de cornemuse sur le pont, de chute d'eau et d'un petit déjeuner varié avec des amuses gueules raffinés. Nous recommandons cette expérience particulièrement pour les couples, peut être un peu moins pour les familles avec des enfants en bas âge. Merci du fonds du coeur à l'équipe pour leur accueil et leur passion.

Unique, relaxing experience

My partner and I went on the explorer cruise. It was just us two which made it very special. The faith itself is a pure beauty and both the co owner George and skipper Marie were very knowledgeable about her. It was interesting learning about her history. The service was absolutely amazing and we both felt very relaxed and welcome. The cruise included drinks and food which was great. We also got to take a walk in the fiords with George to the hidden lakes. Overall, the view, walk, sail and service were top notch and I would highly recommend this cruise.
