Lunenburg is quaint Nova... More

We were told when we booked at dockside that they would have to have at least 4 people to sign up in order to go so we took our chances, it worked out and was a perfect day for sailing, stiff wind and sunshine. Merrill loves sailing and sharing it with others we were delighted to have the chance to... More

We booked a private charter for a 3 hour sail on the Eastern Star and had a tremendous experience. Initially it looked like we were not going to be able to go as our reservation had been misplaced but the team worked out a solution and we left immediately. As we were a small group, we had tremendous freedom to... More

Like the previous reviewer I booked a sunset cruise and was told it may not go ahead as we needed one more person. They took my number and said they'd call either way. Having heard nothing all say I tried to call twice and left a message and no one got back to me. When I went down to the... More

We booked the sunset cruise earlier but they told us 30 min before the trip that they had to cancel it as there are not enough passengers. This did not help in our planning as we were in that area for 2 days only. I wish it was little more professional.

My husband and I went on a sunset cruise with Star Charters while we were in Lunenburg, and it was fantastic. The cruise was about 2 hours long, and the scenery was beautiful. They sail the boat just by sails instead of motor, which we both liked. It was my first time sailing ever, and I really enjoyed it. Our... More

This is not a review of the tour itself but rather of our experience booking with the company. Star Charters disappointed us on our trip to Lunenburg although we had really been looking forward to our Sunset sail as it happened to be a beautiful clear afternoon/evening. We reserved two spots on a sail only to discover when we arrived... More

The weather was beautiful and the sailing was great. The captain ws an Aussie who was very friendly and let the kids captain the boat for a while, we saw a couple... More

It was our first time....I pictured relaxing, sitting in the sun with a slight breeze. I realized there was alot more to sailing... as the winds were favorable for a good sail. The boat leans much more than I expected, there were a few kids that didnt like the sailing experience and were scared. I would say it was an... More

My family of five loved the Eastern Star. I loved the price of $65 for all five of us. The Captain, Merrill was very friendly and informative. I would highly recommend this activity.
