We did the half day sailing trip (just me and my husband) during our honeymoon. It was by far our favorite experience from our honeymoon. The hosts were great and the captain even brought us a home made baked cake for our honeymoon. We weren't expecting it and it was such a nice touch! The views were beautiful and we were able to swim in a secluded area in the ocean. The tapas were amazing. We are so delighted that we had that experience and would definitely do it again.…

We did a four hour cruise since we had arrived in Palma via cruise ship. We had 5 adults and 2 small children. The water is so clear that when we stopped to swim we hesitated at the stern. The captain laughed good naturedly and said: "It's Ok, the water is 18 feet deep here." It looked like it was only 2-4 feet! The water temperature was pleasant. Next we had a gourmet meal with a delicious sparkling wine (or if you preferred, soft drinks or bottled water). The crew were so friendly and fun to be with. And, of course the views were spectacular. We will be back for a longer cruise!…

The sailing trip with Captain Cook was the absolute highlight of our stay in Mallorca. The " Simmertime" is a luxurious and comfortable yacht. Captain Adriaan is very skilled in giving you an exciting sailing experience. He is a very experienced sailor. Cook Sandra is responsible for a Michelin star level culinary experience. All the exquisite dishes are fresh and home cooked. She is indeed an excellent cook. By the way, she is an excellent sailor too. Needless to say that during the trips quality drinks were served from the welcome champagne to the wines with the food and the digestive at the end. And not to forget all the drink are included. In short. we lived during that day the life of the rich in a beautiful environment. Indeed an experience never to forget. …

My cousin and I booked a day of sailing with Captain Cook as a surprise for our husbands while visiting Palma de Mallorca on a Celebrity Cruise. We have nothing but great things to say about this experience, from the time of booking to the actual day of our sailing. Before my review- this trip is available for booking directly through Captain Cook. They respond to emails almost immediately with any questions. And it is very possible to book this as a shore excursion while visiting Mallorca on a cruise. Now for the great news. Adriaan and Sandra communicated with us from the very beginning so we knew exactly what to expect. We knew the address where to have our taxi driver drop us off, and the crew member, Yannick, greeted us warmly at the meeting spot promptly at the scheduled time. We boarded the dingy to the boat, where we were greeted by Captain Adriaan. All we can say is WOW! The sailboat is beautiful and we felt so welcomed as their guests. We sailed for a bit, then stopped at a swimming area. On our way to Cala Blanca, we were treated to a delicious cake homemade by Sandra, along with some local cava wine. My husband was then instructed on how to operate the sailboat and was able to get behind the wheel. We stopped at a beautiful cala where we could swim, snorkel, or just relax on the boat while drinking beers. We were then treated to the most delicious tapas lunch prepared by Adriaan and Yannick. We were in a couple areas of Spain on our cruise, and this was our favorite tapas! We then sailed a little more, and then we were dropped of at our initial meeting spot. Adriaan even called a taxi for us so we did not need to walk to the taxi stand. I can’t say enough great things about our day sailing with Captain Cook. We visited 7 ports in three countries on our cruise, and this was by far the highlight of our trip!!! …
