We could not have asked for a more incredible experience. We were privileged to have the first and only female captain as our amazing guide and captain. Graziella was so proud of her Country and shared so many incredible stories with us. She showed us the beauty of Malta from the sea.
Thanks to Grace one of the best days, the boat was immaculate, the bays we stopped in and had food were beautiful.will be booking again. Thanks again Grace for a beautiful day.
100% recommend. So helpful and kind, communication was amazing and made a big day special. I would not recommend anyone else for your needs.
The experience was perfect. The boat was in great condition and Grazziela (skipper) was extremely sympathetic and nice the whole day!
Amazing time, lovely and very warm captain!!
We had a great day out with Captain Grace! Thank you for looking after us so well and making the day so much fun.
Me and my friends had a lovely day sailing through the most unique places. The best was our skipper Manuel! We love him!!! Highly recommended.
The boat overall is in good conditions. However the confort in board is very limited: no cushions in the external area, no towels, very few water (no soft drinks) and the external table definitely limits the space. We really had problems with the assigned skipper, apparently without the necessary experience to anchor the boat at blue lagoon and surroundings in Comino, with several different excuses, such as anchor achievment, sea roughness and wind (although several other boats, smaller and larger, passed by us and achored without any problem). At some stage we were even afraid to get back to Valetta considering the apparently less of sailoring necessary skills for this trip. We do not reccomend it.
Huge thank you to our captain Grace! Not only was she super helpful and accomodating but also caring of our family due to a few people feeling a little ill on board from food the previous day. This was one of our best highlights of our trip to Malta. I can not recommend this enough. Thank you once again from Australia and hopefully we will be back in the near future:)
We had a beautiful day with Manuel, our skipper. I highly recommend booking the Mowgli, we opted for the hole day and it was amazing.
Evgheni was very responsive to all communication and was very easy to deal with. I had actually tried to charter the boat back in April but had to cancel due to inclement weather conditions. Evgheni had no problem issuing the refund due to weather. Finally got to do it in July, same quick communication. Graziella was our skipper on Saturday and was great! I had taken a sailing course back in April so was interested in sailing/boating. Unfortunately there was not enough wind so we motored to the Blue Lagoon, but while motoring Graziella took the time to explain how she navigates, showed how she lets preps the anchor, refreshed my memory on the buoy markers, let me steer for as long as I liked, etc. Blue Lagoon was too crowded to anchor there, so Graziella took us to another lagoon she recommended where we let down the anchor to have lunch and go swimming. Would definitely recommend and hire next time we're back in Malta. Thanks Evgheni and Graziella! It was a great trip!
Beautiful boat. Graziella was a great skipper and took us to the best spots. Perfect day on the water
Lovely day and professional captain Graziella took good care of us all
What an amazing experience and time on the Mowgli. Will remember this moment for a lifetime. Great boat, good facilities, best and friendly captain. Thank you for a great day out to Camino.
Mia and myself had a wonderful day, it's absolutely a must do! Graziella was very knowledgeable about the country and the history. It was absolutely amazing!
Evgheni was great!
Everything was perfect and accordance to description
Thank you to the wonderful skipper and hostess. The boat was epic, service amazing, friendly and relaxing. Really appreciated a great day out couldn’t recommend anywhere better. Thank you again.
Lots of fun, nice skipper 👍
Due to Evgheni exceptional hospitality we had most amazing day. Not only his boat is spotless clean, it’s also well prepared for sailing and relaxing. Definitely experience to return to when visiting Malta.
It was the best trip we have had. The skipper was really nice and welcoming. It was all absolutely perfect. We had the best time on the boat
We had a wonderful sailing experience in Malta and Evgheni is very talkative and nice person. The boat is in great condition, clean and functional well. It's a good way to visit islands in Malta and we will definitely recommend Evgheni's boat to friends who will visit Malta!
Thank you for a lovely experience
It was a great day! Wish we could have seen some cool more private spots, we where not interested in the crowded places with large turist boats. Make sure to do your research upfront so you can tell the skipper where to go.
Me and my friends had such a great experience. Highly recommend this boat, and po the skipper was amazing!!!
I really recommend this experience!
A great day out and very much enjoyed the blue lagoon!!
Everything was great!
My friends and I had a great time and really would recommend Evgheni. He is incredibly communicative throughout booking all the way through to setting sail. He is really keen that your group have a good time on his boat. The boat itself is lovely, well-maintained and spacious. Our skipper for the day, Pawel, was also really keen that we made the most of our trip and worked with us throughout the day to cater our trip to our wishes. Thanks again for an awesome and memorable day at sea.
It was a very good experience overall.
Evgheni was very nice and welcoming from the beginning. We were a bit concerned about the weather and he reassured us and kept us posted about the conditions very transparently. The boat was super clean and he welcomed us with some coffee too. Conversations were easy and comfortable during the day. Definitely recommend his service!
Evgheni was amazing! Responded quickly to my messages, boat looked better than the pictures. He had a paddle board, mask, and floaties. We were able to connect our phones for music. Brought our own food and drinks. Smooth ride on the boat. He took us to a great location to anchor and swim in clear waters not far from his marina. Strongly recommended. Book with him!!
We loved our family day with the boat. For six people it was very comfortable. Good facilities, everything was clean, skipper was great. The Blue lagoons were amazing albeit very busy, but well worth the trip. Never seen seas like it. Would definitely recommend.
It has been wonderfull, the boat really good and Manuel , the captain, the best!!
We had a fabulous day on board of the Mowgli boat. The boat is in really good condition, very confortable and spacious for our group. On the top of that, our skipper Manuel was very professional. He has satisfied to our wishes and made good proposals and was very flexible. We have all enjoyed this great day and will be pleased to do it again if we have the opportunity. Thanks a lot for this lovely experience. 😍
Very good host. Really managed to arrange everything last minute. Was very accommodating and helped to manage some of our less experienced friends who went through the motions. The sail boat is fantastic and definitely worth a day trip
We had an amazing day, big thank you to the Captain who made our trip excellent! He was very helpful and relaxed. We will definitely do this again!
Neil our Skipper was fantastic. He really made us feel comfortable and ensured we had a great day. Nothing was too much trouble for him… we had a brilliant day out exploring Camino & Blue Lagoon. Thank you Neil!
Highly recommend renting this boat. It's absolutely beautiful and we had the best day sailing around the coast with Neal. He took such good care of us and had great recommendations on where to go and hidden little places that weren't overly crowded.
We had a great time on the sailboat. We didn’t have a lot of time, but Manuel took us to a great spot for some swimming. There were 12 of us, and it was a bit tight, but it worked. Evgeni was great with communication and organizing food and drinks for the trip. I would definitely book them again.
Fantastic trip around the island of Malta. Boat is brand new. Manuel, the skipper was incredibile. Very enjoyable experience, relaxing and easy. Great communication prior to the boat day. I would highly recommend it.
Great day for my family out on the water. Captain was knowledgeable, and sought to make this the best day possible
We had a wonderful experience but the weather didn't cooperate on the day of our rental. Manuel, our skipper, was very experienced and aware of the potential bad side effects of the high sea state and had a plan to minimize our exposure to the rough seas yet get a relaxing day on the water. He was attentive and very pleasant tour guide with great English skills. We terminated the day with a nice tour of the grand harbor of Valletta. Thank you for a wonderful time.
We had a great time, thankyou!
The whole booking process with Evgheni was really smooth, he was responsive and really helpful. Our skipper for day was Neil who was a fantastic person, he was friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we had a smooth experience and an enjoyable day. He provided us a really good insights in to the history of Malta and took us to the best sites, we really enjoyed visiting blue lagoon and spending time going for a swim! The yacht itself was really spacious and a really great yacht to take a day trip around the water. Overall we couldn’t speak highly enough of the experience and in particular or skipper Neil who made it really enjoyable. We will definitely be Evgheni and his team again on our return to Malta.
Evgheni was very quick to message back and Neil was a very good host/skipper on the boat
Everything was there to have a great day : A very pretty boat, an extraordinary skipper and sumptuous landscapes !
An amazing day out! Neil was great, such a lovely guy and some really good stops throughout the day! Thank you!
Glen our captain/host was great and made our sailing trip very enjoyable and relaxed. Communication with Evgheni was clear and concise and responses were quick.
This was an excellent charter. Our captain Neal was outstanding. It was a perfect day. Highly recommend! A+++
Huge thank you to Evgheni for allowing us to rent his boat and order fabulous food from his restaurant to eat on board. We had a great day. Our skipper Neil was attentive & knowledgeable. He had taken us up to the blue lagoon and a private bay which we had to ourselves to paddle board and swim in the sea. They day could’ve have been more perfect in the sun ☀️
Everything was perfect.
Had a smashing day on the boat. Neil, the skipper, was a great host and showed us the very best of Malta and the surrounding islands. We lucked out with the weather. When boat glides through the water on only its sail, it’s something to behold! We’ll be back!
We had a blast! It was such a great experience The captain was caring and nice. The sail boat was very clean and confortable. I really recommend you this sale boat a 100%. Thanks a lot for everything!
It was such a great experience! The boat was just like the pictures, and extremely well kept. Evgheni and his wife were excellent hosts and made our time wonderful. We wanted to see Gozo but they explained to us that since it is a sail boat, it would take longer. They were understanding and communicated with us and made sure we were happy. They recommended Blue Lagoon and Crystal Lagoon with the time we had which were AMAZING. We brought food and had a picnic. The timing of everything was perfect. I would highly recommend booking with them! :)
Patient, professional, and generally pleasant. Evgehny was a great host and captain. We ordered food from his restaurant, and very much enjoyed it. We visited during the cooler month of February, but loved the relative solitude and the sights. We hope to be able to come back in warmer weather.
Evgheni was a great host, the boat was clean and was comfortable. We had a great time on board and enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommend for anyone who’s looking for a private yacht in good price with excellent levels of maintenance.
Amazing experience. Great communication to book last minute , amazing sailing and skipping by Evgheni who is very polite and professional. Highly recommend !
Evgeny was a wonderful host. My wife and I had a relaxing day under sail. The two locations recommend by Evgeny that we stopped for a swim and some food were amazing. We ordered food from his restaurant which was delivered to the boat prior to departure. Evgeny was happy to chat while we were underway, but the graciously left us alone while we had a swim and our lunch. I highly recommend a day on the water with Evgeny and his boat Mowgli.
Had a lovely time with my wife on a charted cruise. The skipper allowed us our privacy and when asked gave us a lot of information about the surrounding areas. Sailing was amazing. Recommendation to future travellers carry a windcheater:-). But 10/10 will definitely do it again 😀
We had a very nice day on the boat. There was enough space for the 9 of us. Our Skipper Manuel was very friendly and took us to some beautiful places.
It was a very nice day on this boat. We can recommend this.
Evgheni was a great host and captain. Highly recommend a day charter on his immaculate boat.
Had the best day on this boat with my mother! It’s a lovely boat and the weather was ideal so we were able to sail without the engine for a lot of our trip back to the harbour! Glen our skipper was perfect all day (and has great music taste 😂)! We ordered from the boat owner’s restaurant and the food was amazing, particularly the fried burrata with marinara sauce - mind blowing 🤤 thanks for a very special day!
Fantastic day with Glen!
Great experience with Glen, he took us to the best spots and were always very helpful trying to make us the most comfortable possible. The boat was amazing and very clean ! Thank you so much for everything.
Great guy and super nice boat. Def recommended
Très, très belle expérience.
10/10. Highly recommend! Communication was prompt and clear in preparation. The vessel is gorgeous. Most importantly, Glen the skipper was a treat. He was professional, but we all left from our day feeling like he was a good friend of ours. We’d do it again with no hesitation.
amazing boat. fresh, clean and great looking. would definitely rent again and definitely recommend to others 🎉🎉. we had a 10 year anniversary and spent an amazing time onboard. superb service 🌟🌟
Thank you
Glen was our Captain for the day. He is such an asset to have as an employee. He was friendly, informative and so accommodating! Our trip wouldn't have been the same without Glen!!! The boat was nice, new and clean, however, the boats facilities looked bigger in the photos but this didn't hamper the 5 of us. We ordered food and soft drinks directly - the pizza's were delicious! We throughly enjoy our day out at sea. I would highly recommend Mowgli as a charter boat.
Both guys are amazing and very accommodating. Paddle boarding was a great addition. Highly recommend!
Perfect cruise for a bachelorette party. We had time to visit Comino, swim, it was beautiful. Thank you very much to Evgheni who was a really nice skipper :)
Myself and my other 7 friends celebrated a hen’s party on Evgheni’s boat and could not have been happier with the experience. Evgheni was extremely helpful and very responsive months before our trip, he gave us great recommendations of a route to take on the day and also was kind enough to pick some food for our lunch on the boat. During the trip he was very respectful and nice, answering any questions and always checking if we are happy with the plan of where we are going/what we are doing next. The boat itself had a clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, fridge, table with some seating downstairs and cosy place outside for everyone to sit down and enjoy a cocktail. He took us to the most beautiful places, we were able to do some swimming, paddling and the whole day just really exceeded our expectations - would definitely recommend!
Evgheni was a fantastic host, he made us feel very welcome and safe on the yacht. He also provided tips on local cuisine and even invited us to eat at his restaurant nearby. Highly recommend his services, would happily use it again next time I'm in Malta. FYI be very careful if you're bringing a drone on board 😂.
It really was an excellent day out. Evgheni & MarieClaire were amazing hosts who were willing to go just about anywhere we wanted to go. They were kind and hospitable. The boat itself was spacious and comfortable and extremely well kept. They did everything to ensure our day was special. Highly recommended!!
What an INCREDIBLE day Evgheni and his wonderful partner Marie-Claire were the best hosts. We felt welcome and safe the entire time, we were able to help sail and our little boy was treated like a king. They even babysat so we could go off snorkelling/SUP. Evgheni was amazing with communicating from the time of booking and the boat is absolutely dreamy. The most memorable end to our trip in Malta. Could not recommend more highly. Thank you guys
We had an amazing time! The captain asked where we wanted to go and we asked for a nice quiet place to swim and relax. There were snorkels and pool noodles and a sup. We saw a lot of fish and had an amazing time! Very friendly! Everything was available (cutlery, cups, plates,…) and there was a fridge. Would happily return if we are ever in Malta again! Highly recommended!
Really good experience ! Evgheni is available and kind ! Just enjoy. ☺️
One of the best days we’ve had in a long time. Evgheni and his lovely wife showed us a terrific day. I will be insisting to anyone I know that comes to Malta that they take this trip!
A fantastic day on there sea visiting some gorgeous small coves that would be very difficult to access by land. Can't recommend this more to anyone looking for a relaxing day that will be a highlight of any trip to Malta!
Best day in malta
It was so Great on board, we had so much fun and our skipper evgheni was so polite and nice to us. We had a one day trip and it was wonderful.
I had some friends coming over for a visit to Malta and hire Evgheni's boat was a wonderful idea. We had a great day and the service was excellent. Totally recommendable
Hi Thank you for a great day out! We really enjoyed it and look forward going it again soon! It felt like our home away from home Thanks again
Excellent outing with Evgheni. We did not want to be with too many other boats, so he took us to some hidden coves, caves and blue waters. Perfect day out. Thanks Evgheni.
Thank you Evgheni for the nice trip to Blue Lagoon. That was a beautiful day for all of our team.
We had a beautiful day on this boat. Evgheny is very friendly, kind and professional - I can only recommend to take trips with him. He brought us to two beautiful hidden places where we could swim and paddle board. He is also great with kids and made sure the trip was safe, smooth and everybody was happy. We are very thankful for this unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
We had a perfect day on sea with Evgeni.. he really is a superhost. He knows perfect places, peaceful beaches and is helpful in any way. He even caught my drone for me when I had difficulties to land it on a moving boat. We recommend booking a trip with Evgeni, it was the most pleasent experience we could expect and we appreciated that he was always in the background but at the same time.always attentive and at service when we wanted to ask sth. Hopefully we get another chance to visit Malta and find such perfect hosts like Evgeni
Great day sailing with Evgheni to the blue lagoon, stop for a swim and sailing back to Valletta. Definitely will charter again. Thank you
What a fantastic day we spent on this beautiful modern boat! Evgheni is an absolutely amazing skipper and a host: very attentive to details, knowledgeable and friendly. He speaks several foreign languages and for our international gang it was another big plus. We will surely be back!
We had a great time on Mowgli! The boat is beautiful and very comfortable. Evgheni is a fantastic captain and was very welcoming. He also had great communication via the app. Would recommend this sailing trip to anyone!
Had an amazing experience on this boat. The hosts were super friendly and engaging. I and the rest of the guests couldn't have had a better time. Thank you x
Was a lovely day, and standard was superb.
I rented the boat for a family day, and we had a great time! Evgheni is an incredible host and he was super helpful. He provided us with a great route. The boat was super clean and comfy and we just had a blast.
Perfect boat trip 👍🏾
Evgheni was an amazing owner who took our safety very seriously and provided a great day trip! 100% recommended!
You guys amazing :)) Highly recommend.
We had an amazing day in Evgheni's boat! Everyone was so happy with the experience and we are already thinking about doing it again with him. He was very nice and suggested the best places to go.
A very enjoyable experience with great, friendly and knowledgeable hosts!
We had a dream day on the sailboat with Evgheni ! it was perfect. We are so thankful !
My friends and I had the most wonderful day sailing between Malta and Comino! We received a kind welcome by Evgheni, who promptly offered us coffee and explained some safety procedures. He was extremely responsive through all the process, and adapted the trip to our wishes and to what he thought might be best, resulting in an amazing experience, and the best birthday celebration ever! I absolutely recommend him for whatever sailing tour you have in mind
Absolutely brilliant day out. Boat is excellent, very well equipt and Evgheni not only is a fantastic skipper but host too. Nothing was too much trouble which made the day very special. I’d certainly recommend the trip, boat and service.
We are a group of 7 and had the best time on Evgheni's boat. The route he designed for us was perfect, we had our own time to relax and nothing was rushed. Would definitely recommend this when in Malta!
We had a great day with Evgheni on his boat! He was on time, made recommendations on places to visit and relaxed. The boat was a good size for 11 people, clean and we had plenty of place to store our food and drinks. We were also able to play our own music. Definitely recommend Evgheni, thanks once again :)
We had a fantastic day on Evgheni’s boat. All my family thoroughly enjoyed it and we would highly reccomend him.
An unforgettable experience with an amazing boat and an incredibly friendly captain.
Booked a last minute charter with Evgheni, he was really easy to communicate with and made the whole process so much easier. When we arrived at the marina the boat was so lovely. Evgheni was a great sailor and we all felt in good hands! We mistakenly didn’t bring enough food and he went out of his way to give us some of his grandma’s lasagne (which was amazing) and lots of snacks. Everywhere we visited was stunning but the highlight of the day was sailing around with Evgheni’s great company!! If there’s one thing you do in Malta make it this trip, it’s worth every penny and more, I will definitely be back to do another boat trip!!
Honestly, this was the highlight of my trip in Malta . Evgheni was one perfect captain. He had everything we needed, was very respectful of our space , very polite , and professional. I would recommend him to anyone.
We had a great day visiting Gozo and Comino with Evgheni. Thank you!
Evgheni was a great host. Despite the weather and the wind we spend a lovely day with him. Very friendly and professional I highly recommend him.
Evgheni was fantastic and the Rainbow Chaser was beautiful. Next time we’re in Malta we will rebook for sure with Evgheni!!
We had a great cruise with Evgheni for our Bachelor party. Coffees in the morning, good mood and fascinating talks with him. Couldn’t be better ! I recommend!
Great guy and superb trip! Had a great day
Our group had Evgheni for a day and it was an absolute blast! Before booking, Evgheni was quick to respond to any questions I had and was very accommodating! Once we arrived, he welcomed up and showed us an amazing time out on the water. He even docked the boat so we could get off the boat for a bit to enjoy lunch. He showed us an amazing traditional restaurant. I highly recommend Evgheni!
Beautiful start and Evgheni suggested a route where we could preorder lunch to be delivered onboard. Ran into a storm and had to drop anchor for safety so Evgheni made coffee and offered extra towels to us. He offered to cook pasta for us but as a couple of the group felt seasick we decided to cut our journey short and return to port. Evgheni got us back safely despite the awful weather. He is a good host and makes the best coffee.
We were 9 people and celebrated the birthday of my boyfriend. The boat is beautiful and evgheni was very friendly and took us everywhere where we wanted We had the best time I would recommend this boat to everyone, as it is really value for money!
Evenghi and his girlfriend Marie-Claire took our group of 8 friends out on the Rainbow Hunter for a day trip in August, and we all had a fabulous time. The boat was lovely, they were both great fun and so accommodating (we even had Marie-Claire in a tutu at one point for group photos), and they knew all the best spots to take us to swim and relax. It was quite a choppy day and there was one nervous passenger but they soon made us feel safe and comfortable. A great time was had by all and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough…
We had a lovely Sunday, all thanks to Evgheni and Mar. Thank you guys!! We'll be surely coming back !! TOPSERVICE!!
We chartered a boat for one day with friends and had an amazing boat trip on Rainbow Hunter around Malta. Communication with Evgheni before the trip was very efficient. The boat is well kept and has everything one might need - spacious inside, cooking facilities, cooler, outside shower etc. Evgheni and Marie were lovely friendly hosts and felt more like friends. We had a lot of fun and looking forward to sail around Malta again with them
Excellent charter with a great couple, Eugenio and Marie made us feel like sailing with good friends! Excellent service, safe boating and very knowledgeable crew. Strongly recommended
Awesome boat and shipper! Totally recommend
We had the most fabulous day on board Rainbow Hunter; it was a birthday surprise for my partner and he couldn’t have been more thrilled, he was smiling from ear to ear all day. Communication was fantastic, Evgheni was always quick to respond and enthusiastic; it was a joy to deal with him. The skipper, Emmanuel, was such a lovely person and very interesting man, we felt completely at ease in his company. The trip was an excellent way to see and experience Malta, especially on a hot day so we could jump off the boat to cool down. We would like to thank Evgheni and Emmanuel for their hospitality and such a spectacular experience, it was the perfect way to end our trip. There is no question that we will be back if we visit Malta again! Steph & David
We had an amazing day with Evgheni. We had good communication the days before we rent the boat and he answered all my questions. On the day of the trip we could start on time. He showed us beautiful spots for swimming and snorkeling. We would anytime make a trip with him again :)
We took a trip on Evgheni's boat last Saturday. We couldn't have made any better decision to spend our last day in Malta. Evgheni is very friendly and accommodating host. Communication was great from the start, also we were impressed as he hired another fellow skipper to help him as the sea was a bit rough that day just to keep us safe and comfortable! The boat is amazing, has loads of space to hangout, sleep and even cook. We went to a beautiful bay where we were offered lunch, were jumping into the sea from a boat and just having a great time. I would highly recommend to anyone who is planning to take a trip on Evgheni's boat as you will get inspired by his passion for sailing. Thank you very much Evgheni for an amazing day, we will definitely be back to Malta for another sailing experience!

Hi there! I am Moldavian-Italian living in Malta. I am 37 years old and I have been sailing for last 8 years in Malta. I always had a passion for the sea, which brought me to buy a sailing yacht, and get the skipper license to be able to do what I love as my main job. I love sharing my boat with other sailors and people who want to spend some nice time cruising around Malta for a day charter. I will be happy to show you nice bays and crystal waters around Malta. See you on board. :)
