Our day with Alex was highly entertaining and enjoyable. We had some great spinnaker action with the boat at max speed and cutting a swathe through the other boats in the area. We stopped at a gorgeous mooring off Ile de Bagaud for great snorkelling and lunch before more sailing - a full day with marvellous efforts from Alex and worth every Sue, Frank and Euro. We will certainly try to sail with Alex again soon who is clearly a very good sailing instructor as well as a great host.
We had an amazing time sailing with Alex and Leon. Alex is a very patient person, he tried to keep everyone included (but no pressure if you want to just sunbath) and he even managed to teach us a thing or two! Highly recommended and we’ll definitely come again next year!
Had an excellent time with Alexandre for a day trip around the southern tip of Corsica and the Madalenna Islands. Alexandre was very welcoming and walked us through much of the local landscape. His small sailing boat provided us good comfort and a steady ride. Alex was a great tour guide too! Highly recommended.
This was our first time on a sailboat at sea, and we had a great time. Alexandre was a great host, very good with my kids. I hope someday we can return for a longer voyage.
Merci Alexandre pour la meilleure journée de notre séjour en Corse! Alexandre is highly recommended for his patience and enthusiasm throughout the day! The Clickandboat page needs plenty of improvement though!
Alex is a fantastic host, very warm, caring and willing to share his deep knowledge of the sea and sailing experience. I had a wonderful weekend on Le Loup, and would warmly recommend anyone with a keen desire to experience "real" sailor way to not hesitate and enjoy a few days aboard. Wonderful trip ! Thank you Alex.
We had a great day on the wolf. Alex introduced us to sailing on a sailboat. He took particular care of our daughter Margaux. He perfectly knew how to capture his intention and involve him in the boat's maneuvers. With a lunch and swimming break on the island of Port-cros, the day was magnificent. During our next stay in Lavandou, we will certainly book a day with Alex and his new boat... See you soon Alex. David, Gwen, Margaux, Roger and Michou.
Great day on board with Alexandre, very educational, we were able to learn the basics of navigation and maneuver the sailboat :) We leave with beautiful memories, we saw lots of fish, and our bellies were full from the barbecue on board!
Without hesitation, get on board with Alex and Léon! We lived with our two daughters, an adventure that will remain etched in our memories for a very long time… Alex is a super pedagogical and passionate skipper... he will share his passion with you with humor and rigor... we had the impression of sailing with a friend! Let your dreams set sail …
We spent an unforgettable day aboard Le Loup. Alexandre is a pedagogue, patient and very friendly. We recommend without hesitation.
Thanks to Alex for this wonderful cruise. Extremely educational, we felt like we were with a friend, he managed to pass on his passion for sailing to us, even our teenagers managed to remember everything, and without blinking! , Leon. Thanks again Alex, the whole family will remember this first experience, and they want more.
Everything went as desired.
An unforgettable day beyond our expectations. Everything was there with explanations, advice, safety and educational support for getting started under the captain's control. Description of maneuvers and scenario. And the icing on the cake, a return with a spinnaker. An unforgettable day ! I highly recommend… In addition super nice!
Magnificent day at sea in glorious weather. From the reception until the return to port, Alex was on top and attentive to everyone. He is a great professional, very reassuring, ultra educational but also very warm and full of empathy. He knows how to give autonomy and trust. His boat, which is not brand new, remains very well equipped and very well maintained. I recommend it to you from all points of view.
Excellent day with Alexander. Passionate, very pedagogical, he will have generated wonderful memories for our daughter, and of course for ourselves. It is with pleasure that we hope to be able to call on him again in the future. THANKS !
An exceptional day of discovery of sailing. Alex was great! He explained to us and showed us the basics of sailing on a sailboat with a lot of education, we practiced with him, it was really great. He is really very professional but in all simplicity, we really had a great day of sharing in a magnificent setting. We highly recommend!
We spent 4 unforgettable days aboard Le Loup with our daughters Sofia, Viola and Emma aged 14,11 and 6. Alex was a fantastic skipper: competent, passionate, patient, welcoming and capable of infecting all of us, allowing us to experience a truly authentic interlude of life at sea. Despite the not always favorable weather, these days have been exciting and we hope to repeat soon. Finally, let's not forget the sweet Leon nicknamed by Emma "little lynx", an unusual travel companion.
Very good day on Alex's boat. He is friendly and a teacher, his boat is well equipped to learn or relearn and take to the sea. We left from the beach of Cabasson for lunch in Port Cros. Round trip with force 5/6 at a pace of 5/6 knots. Alex knows the area well and depending on the weather conditions will offer you the best option. I recommend.
A very big outing planned at the last moment in a beautiful place. Super captain very pedagogue and voluntary. Who loves sailing and navigation. Really a big thank you for this introduction to the piloting of a habitable.
Very nice first experience with Alex and Léon. The children were able to discover sailing and learn some basics thanks to Alex who offers sailing lessons with pedagogy to share his passion. Alex is welcoming and friendly and offers a simple and relaxed atmosphere.
I spent three fantastic days with my two children on Alexandre's boat. We received a very friendly welcome from the owner and his cat. Very good teacher to learn sailing!
Alex shared his knowledge and his passion for sailing with us with passion and patience. His boat is rigged like a regatta boat?. Looking for a moment of authenticity, you've come to the right place!
We have just returned from a weekend on Le Loup d'Alexandre ET Léon. We were delighted with this experience, for novices like us, Alexandre was a great pedagogy and shared his passion with us. Thank you again for these two days! Stephane
Neophytes we spent as a family, with 2 grown-up children, a week of calm and relaxation punctuated by learning and thrills. Thank you Alex and Léon for their pedagogy and kindness. Claudine
3 exceptional days with the family, top-notch pedagogy to give confidence, rigor and safety, relaxation and beautiful moments. Surely we will meet again aboard the Wolf! Thank you Alex ?
Alex is an exquisite guest and generously conveys his experience as a sailor. He speaks excellent Italian and his conversation is very pleasant. He loves to share his world and is full of energy, which he transmits to his "crew", especially the little ones. Thanks again . Greetings to Leon, sea super cat. Il Lupetto had a lot of fun
Unforgettable experience!!! 5 days spent with friends between Bonifacio and Sardinia. Alex is an incredible, passionate and cheerful skipper. He knew how to adapt to our desires and made us discover magnificent corners! The boat is very well maintained, and has everything you need (kitchen equipment, comfortable mattresses, paddle, masks etc.). A very good sailboat, a super nice and attentive skipper, who knows the good spots and an adorable cat of the seas. We highly recommend !!!
An exceptional day! With humor and pedagogy, Alexandre allowed us to spend an unforgettable day off Bonifacio. His expertise in the sea and in men has made us progress technically and mentally. All this around a glass of rosé, accompanied by good music! Thank you Alexandre.
Three great days with Alex and his lion cat. We were able to navigate the Madalena Islands and take advantage of its dream coves. Alex is passionate and very educational. We recommend!
Alex is a seasoned, welcoming, warm and very experienced skipper and navigator. He is attentive and reassuring. He’s a real sailing enthusiast. He took us and our two young children (7-11 years) for three unforgettable days off Bonifacio between Corsica and Sardinia. Ideal for sharing intense navigation in every sense of the word.
We had a great day with Alex and Leon. The boat is very good and thanks to Alex's excellent welcome we shared pleasant moments together. If you read the reviews and watch this ad, go for it you will not be disappointed !!!!
Not terrible.
We spent a day on an exceptional sailboat. Alexander the captain is fascinating and educational. First sailing trip for three of us (including a 6 year old child) who loved it and are just asking to repeat the adventure !!! Thank you for a nice day !!!
Excellent day spent with Alex. We appreciated his pedagogy and his enthusiasm! By cons Blind test for beginners
A very nice family adventure! landscapes of dreams, a captain listening, concerned about the well being of his passengers with a desire to share his marine universe. He knew how to interest children and adults with patience and confidence. A big thank you for this wonderful discovery and hello to Leon the cat who paddles. See you soon
We spent a MAGNIFICENT day aboard Le Loup with Alexandre and Léon the sea cat, the most beautiful of our holidays. Alex is really very friendly, very funny, passionate, attentive and available. After a sporty trip, he landed us on a dream beach and we returned to the harbor at night, under the magical milky way
Very nice day in the company of Alexandre and Léon. The children are delighted to have learned a lot about navigation and to have piloted the wolf under the advice and kindness of its captain.
Lover of sailing, Alex shares his passion with young and old with education and safety. A great moment of navigation and magnificent images against the backdrop of the sunset and the rising of the Moon with Leon the mascot. Hoping to meet them again for other adventures. May the penons be with you.
Superb day and return under the stars aboard Alex's sailboat! Great memories! We recommend !
Superb experience! This is the first time we have rented on this site and we are really not disappointed! We highly recommend Alexandre and Leon the “cat cat” of the seas !! We were even able to discover boat piloting thanks to Alexandre, a super teacher, thank you again! ;)
Super day spent on the Wolf with Captain Alex '. A first time for us (with friends and including a little moss) that was a treat for all. Whether you are a novice, sailing enthusiast or experienced, do not hesitate: you will find on board what you came for. The little extra: a collaborative navigation with pedagogy, benevolence and full of humor. Do not change anything, to a next and good wind! Northerners!
Alex is a good host, friendly, helpful and attentive, he taught us how to navigate his boat. We had a great day with Alex and Leon his cat. Thanks Alex
