The best experience ever. Sailing with Vincent and Vallery has been such an incredible week. They were super organised, knew what they were doing and super helpful in suggesting hiking or places to see or visit once we got to different marinas. And not to mention the food. Vallery is such an incredible chef. She proposed to us different healthy meals, so yummy and filling. I am so looking forward to summer 2023 to go on the next sailing adventure with them. Elisa
Had an amazing week away on this trip, so interesting, went to some beautiful places, very relaxing and great fun. So well looked after by Vincent and Vallery from beginning to end. Will look forward to going on another trip arranged by them. You will not regret booking this adventure for yourself.
Sailing 2 wellness was a mind blowing experience.
Sailing around the beautiful islands Sardinia and Corsica in combination with good food, yoga&meditation sessions are highly recommended.
Thanks again Vallery and Vincent for your great hospitality.
Hope to see you next year.

This is a unique trip and I loved my time sailing with Vincent and Valery and the group we had. The memories live on like waking up in some of those incredible bays! It felt an honour to be part of the team with good organisation, communication and the most yummy tasty and varied food. The boat is fully equipped and there were special touches from Vincent and Valery including such good laughs ! This is such a special trip
I so look forward to working with Sailing 2 Wellness again and I would recommend anyone to do this adventure of a lifetime as life is too short to miss it!
I loved the whole experience. The only thing I would change is the part where it was advised that it is customary for the guests to pay for the crews meals in the restaurants.
Listen to the tip about luggage. I took way too much in a suitcase which was far too big for the cabin and only wore half the clothes inside it.
This trip was hands down my favorite traveling experience! Vincent and Vallery were so welcoming and friendly; they have created a dream itinerary that had us swimming in the clearest, bluest waters and visiting the most charming little towns along the way. You really can’t beat the scenery! Val is an amazing chef, making delicious meals for us twice a day from fresh local Sardinian foods, and they had wonderful suggestions for dinner on the islands, making reservations when necessary. The boat is spacious and contains all you need for a comfortable stay, even at full capacity there is plenty of room for everyone to relax. It is the only boat trip I have been on, but I know it is a treat to have an entire boat and a small group as opposed to a ton of people on a cruise or tour boat! I highly suggest booking with Vincent and Val, as you will make amazing memories you won’t forget!
