Sail into Adventure

This 2-hour tour is an absolute must for anyone visiting Auckland. From raising the sails to taking the helm, the hands-on experience is both exciting and immersive. The yacht moves at impressive speed, and the thrill of feeling it tilt as it slices through the water is unforgettable. The crew is professional and engaging, making the whole journey even more enjoyable. The whole experience was incredibly enjoyable and a must-try for sailing enthusiasts or anyone looking for a unique adventure in Auckland. Highly recommended!

A lot of fun

We had Perfect Wind, an experienced, friendly Team (rescued a hat a passenger lost) and felt a little bit like in a race mode. Thanks to the team. Mathias

Loved every minute. Skilled & knowledgeable crew. A good, strong breeze made this trip a little bit exciting and of course, gorgeous views of the Waitemata harbour
