What people are saying about Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

Booked the 3 hour sunset cruise, it was amazing! Our skipper, Marvin, was very kind and funny. He made the trip enjoyable, taught us all the safety information we needed, allowed us to wander the boat as we wish. We were even allowed to eat/drink anything we brought. My boyfriend actually proposed to me on this cruise and Marvin and the others on the boat with us turned it into a party/celebration. I couldn’t have asked for a better time! We cheers and sat around and talked, it felt like a big family! It was a bit chilly out on the water so bring a coat! We will be coming back in two years and will definitely rebook this cruise.

Als unerfahrene Segler buchten wir als Familie mit zwei Teenangern den Trip über GetYouGuide. Unser Törn sollte an einem verregneten Freitag stattfinden, so dass eine Absage denkbar wäre. An der Hohen Düne angekommen erhielten wir erfreulicherweise ein kostenfreies Upgrade auf den wettermäßig besser geeigneten Katamaran und statteten. Trotz des Wetters genossen wir eine fabelhafte Tour auf der Ostsee und im Alten Strom. Unser Skipper René verstand es super, die 8 Gäste zu unterhalten, jeder der wollte, war gern zum Mitmachen eingeladen. Eine tolle Erfahrung - wir kommen gern bei Sonnenschein wieder. Besten Dank.

The tour was great. We were a small group so everyone had plenty to ask and try out. Our skipper Marvin was very nice and made the experience perfect. There were all kinds of drinks on board, but you could also bring your own food and drink.

We were so lucky since the weather was perfect so we saw a stunning sunset on the Sea. It was an amazing trip with a very nice staff!

Nice sailing trip, got to see and hear a lot about Lübeck.
