Easy ride around the bay. Nice crew and relaxed environment. You can help pull or unfold sails if you want. Or to steer the boat.

We had a wonderful time on our sailboat. The skipper and his crews of one other person did a fantastic job of caring for us. It was so much fun being able to steer the ship. Our weather was a bit overcast, but perhaps better than a strong hot sun.

The sailing yacht was well crewed with experienced staff, who also explained everything that was happening or going to happen with the sailing operation.The experience provided us with a different view of Auckland. We thought it was a good experience and value for money.

You are in the sun but they supplied water snack and sunscreen. Music and you were on a sailboat. Very fun

What an incredible experience! The boat is well-maintained and spacious. The crew was super friendly, making everyone feel welcome and relaxed throughout the trip. The wind conditions were perfect, providing an excellent sailing experience. A special highlight was when the captain let me take the helm—such a thrilling and memorable moment! The views of Auckland from the water were amazing. I highly recommend this sailing trip for anyone looking to enjoy the sea, great company, and breathtaking scenery!
