The good crewed sailings fill up weeks ahead and the small boats go first. Below: the 7 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Moana’s Waikīkī turtle snorkel and sailing trip, with family tips, boat details, wildlife expectations, pricing, and booking advice.
“Nice easy time that doesn't take up too much time in your day. Seeing turtles and fish on a great boat that's not crowded at all!!!”
Sail Lisbon’s Tagus River on a small-group sunset cruise with local guides, Vinho Verde, music, and views of Belém Tower and Alfama.
“This trip was the highlight of my Lisbon vacation. Francisco did an excellent job explaining the history behind each site. He struck the perfect balance—knowing when to give us space, when to engage, and when to top up our wine. The wine itself was wonderful; I especially loved the Green wine, which felt perfect for the occasion. While on the boat, we passed by other party and sailing boats, but honestly, this one was the most relaxing I saw and experienced. If you want to enjoy the natural breeze, the sound of the waves, and the beautiful scenery without distractions, this is the tour to take.”
Sail from Mykonos to Rhenia and Delos for swimming, lunch, Greek ruins, wine, and a guided island tour in six hours.
“The experience was incredible and genuinely memorable. The onboard crew were excellent, attentive, and responsive to our needs. Communication before the trip was clear, especially when they let us know our morning cruise was moved to the afternoon due to wind conditions. The food was a bit too carb-heavy for my preference. It included pasta, salad, bread, and cheese, served family style with other passengers. Drinks were complimentary but needed to be requested directly from the crew. The biggest issue was time management, or more accurately, the lack of clarity around how long we had at each stop. We spent a lot of time at Rhenia, which was enjoyable, but…”
Sail past seals and Split Apple Rock, then walk from Anchorage Bay through native bush to Marahau on this full-day Abel Tasman trip.
“Excellent we completed the boat trip and walk combo. It was a beautiful day the sun was shining and the activity was excellent. Well worth the money”
Review of Brooklyn Sail’s 2.5-hour small-group sail, with Statue of Liberty views, Brooklyn Bridge, pricing, tips, and practical details.
“Best way to see New York, hands down. Captain was knowledgeable and very skilled. We went out just as described and docking was expert level.”
Review of Honest Eco’s Key West kayak, guided snorkel, and morning sail, with wildlife, mangroves, snacks, pricing, and practical tips.
“It was a very well put together tour, very enjoyable with activity but also some time to just relax and cruise. Libby and Angela were super friendly and clearly know their stuff, but also were just fun to chat with. Lunch was great as well!”
Review a Catania sunset sailing trip with Etna Coast views, Ulysses Caves, swimming, prosecco, local appetizers, and practical tips.
“Elsa and I had an amazing time. Sergio and Carlo were great company, and taught us a lot about Sicily and the local customs. The views were beautiful and the trip was so peaceful. The appetisers that Carlo prepared were brilliant, and we had more than we could ever ask for. Sergio and Carlo looked after us so well, and treated us like kings! We cannot recommend highly enough! Thank you guys for a great evening !”
