• Who is in charge of my flight to the Seychelles?

• How can I arrange my transfer from the airport to the boat?

  Your transfers are not included in your cruise package. If you wish, your GlobeSailor advisor can help you organise them. Please contact us for more information.

• Does the boat operate only with the sails?

  It depends on the weather. When the winds are strong, the skipper will use the sails to sail silently. On days with calmer winds or to reach the stopovers on schedule, the skipper may need to use the engine. The engine is also used when entering and leaving the marinas. We cannot guarantee a minimum time of using the sails. The skipper will do their best to use the sails as much as possible and involve passengers in manoeuvres.

  During your cruise, you will benefit from the full board formula including breakfasts, lunches, dinners and water. Drinks, soft drinks, juices and spirits are not included in your package. These drinks must be paid for on-site.
