Experience of A Lifetime! - Sam and Lita offer a great sailing experience for my boyfriend and myself. Their sailboat was so fun to ride on and really gave you a close look at the lake. We stayed in a neighboring town off the shore of Thun lake. They were very knowledgeable of not only the area but the lake itself. They also were kind enough to provide drinks to sip on during our ride. They also mentioned adventure and excitement run in the family as they have a daughter that teaches paragliding, I’m sure they could point you in the right direction if you’re interested!

Sail the See - We were lucky enough to be hosted by Captain Sam and his wife on their sailboat today. We shared a very enjoyable 2-hour sail which included wine from their organic vines, soda, and snacks. No sailing experience was required, other than ducking below the boom and changing sides as we came about under Sam's instructions. It was so enjoyable to converse with local Swiss who could answer our questions about Interlachen while dangling our toes over the side in the water. Thank you sooo much!

Magical experience surrounded by mountains! - Captain Sam took us on a sailing adventure in one of the most beautiful lakes of Switzerland. We were welcomed on shore with prosecco and there were snacks and other beverages on the boat too! The lake is surrounded by mountain peaks and is big enough to give the feeling of complete freedom. For me, the entire experience felt like a dream come true! My husband even had a chance to sail the ship himself, of course under the careful supervision of Captain Sam himself. We had so much fun on the water and it gave such a thrill sailing that fast over the water, powered by the wind. I can really recommend this experience to anyone!
