My husband has been talking about learning to sail for years now, so for our anniversary, I bought a Groupon for this sailing tour. The discount made it a no-brainer, but having gone, we plan to take the family back for a private charter; it was that great. The boat is comfortable, Captain Bob is very knowledgeable and experienced, and... More

The captain was skilled sailor, and an excellent host. He saw to it that we were comfortable and that we were enjoying our sail. He even provided drinks and light... More

For an Xmas present we booked a 3-hour SF Bay cruise for 6, 2 adult kids, SOs, and we had a great time. Had a sunny day in between winter storms and it was so much fun to see the bay from an expertly commanded yacht - very different than from the bridges, city or ferries. Our skipper, Bob, was... More

Had a great time with Captain Bob. It would have been nice if there had been more wind, but that's out of his control. Even without much wind, it was a nice relaxing morning touring the bay. I would definitely recommend this company. More

Not lucky on the wind though but Bob is not responsible for that obviously. We still got a decent breeze for the last hour and the boat was pretty fast and fun!!!! Good explanation... More
