We sat on comfy cushions with a glass of cava as we cruised along the coast, stopping to see the cliffs and a cave that becomes a waterfall when it rains (luckily not that day!). The tapas-style lunch was delicious and filling, and it was great fun chatting with the other guests. We stopped near Port of Morgan for paddle boarding — very choppy but hilarious watching my daughter wobble about! The hosts were lovely and nothing was too much trouble. Plenty of room for all 12 of us. I’d definitely recommend this trip,…”

He coordinated everything perfectly with me and ensured that the timings fit seamlessly with my schedule. A special mention to our yacht guide, Marcello – the “Spaghetti Captain.” He was very humorous and, at the same time, extremely knowledgeable, with 26 years of sailing experience. He made our sailing trip exciting and engaging with his stories, laughter, and expertise. The helicopter ride was both safe and fun. The view of Barcelona from above was truly mesmerizing. I would definitely recommend this experience to my friends.”
