Full description
To you, who always want to have everything under control, but you can't control the wind. Here is the experience to learn how to enjoy it without worries (or to discover the basics to tame it, if you just can't resist) .
Set off from San Felice del Benaco (BS) for a 3-hour sail among the most scenic shores of Lake Garda: admire Gardone Riviera, Toscolano Maderno, or maybe Torri del Benaco, if the wind decides to change sides.
On board the boat you will find a skipper ready to give you a try at the helm and reveal some of the secrets of sailing. No engine, no set course. Just wind, lake and freedom!
What we will do
The appointment is at 09: 00 at the meeting point in Portese, a hamlet of San Felice del Benaco (BS) . We will be welcomed by the crew with whom we will spend this morning sailing, entirely driven by the lake breeze!
Once all participants have gathered on board, we will start sailing around the Gulf of Salò, choosing our itinerary according to the wind conditions.
We will either sail along the western shore of Lake Garda, admiring Gardone Riviera and Toscolano Maderno up close, or cross the lake to the picturesque Torri del Benaco.
During navigation, if we wish, we will have the opportunity to stop for a swim (weather conditions permitting) . But it doesn't end here, because those who would like to try their hand at the helm will also find what they are looking for: the skipper will be happy to share some sailing knowledge and give us a go at steering the boat.
We will then return to the meeting point. The excursion will last about 3 hours in total .

The experience is recommended from the age of 6; children under the age of 18 must be accompanied on board by an adult.
