It was a different time, but we were fine with that. Everything worked out perfectly."Christian, August 20, 2025

"Alex was incredibly accommodating! The day we booked, the weather was bad, or rather unsuitable (very windy), for boating. He allowed us to reschedule for a day without any problems. Everything worked out smoothly. You could contact him at any time, and he had a solution for everything.
He definitely recommends it to anyone who wants to enjoy stress-free boating."
"It was a wonderful tour. We always followed the dolphins at a safe distance. We had the opportunity to observe a small family several times. There was also plenty of information in German about the islands we passed. We were out for almost two hours, and refreshments were even provided on board.
My family enjoyed it very much, and we would book it again."
