Classic Sailing Anmeldelser 

Tried multiple times to book a sailing day through this company. Classic Sailing is a booking agency mostly for yachts and ships they do not own and have little control over. Their organisation is very chaotic, difficult to get hold of and obtain responses and confirmations from and have difficulty getting information correct on bookings. Adam Palser seems to be the owner but seems useless at any form of admin. The office ladies particularly Jess and Jessie were much better. As the ships are not owned by the company their schedules change frequently and seemingly without warning so be warned that when you think you have a booking, it could change at any time. After a period of about four months trying to arrange a trip we had to give up and ask for our money back.

Great boat, excellent skipper and first mate, arrangements before the trip were spot on, all information required given without prompt. above all an excellent trip thanks to skipper and mate, (catering / hospitality also excellent).

Almost certainly my best trip to date

Did my RYA day skipper, probably more basic living conditions onboard than a modern yacht more than made up for by the excellent and knowledgable crew . learning to sail on a lovely classic boat was great , everybody was very welcoming , friendly and professional , the food was great and they were able to get everybody working together as a team quickly. I didn’t want to go home and would highly recommend on top of which doing qualifications with trinity helps fund their charity work and keep these stunning boats working 👍

Great experience. Not a passive holiday but an immersive experience of sailing. Great crew.

Classic sailing are a very friendly helpful group of people who assist you in finding an amazing sailing experience . It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner, get out there and have a life changing experience.
Going sailing on a tall ship was one of the best experiences of my life and I was inspired to get more experience. Now I’m about to set off on a new course in my life . I’m going to sea!
Life is short live It to the full.

Classic Sailing have chosen their ships and crews carefully. Two different voyages in different parts of the world which were both professionally run by experienced crew show that these people know what they're selling.

After just a few days on board I was confident that the captain was very knowledgable and experienced and kept the ship and crew safe in any weather. The crew was very pleasant and friendly most of the time although not as experienced as I thought that they should be. The voyage crew often seemed to get mixed instructions on where to go and how to do things.
Meals were very good and became the highlight of the day with weeks of no change of no land or sea creature in site.
Lack of sleep and seasickness made the experience not very pleasant at times.
Among a group of 52 people on a small space there are always some that seem misfits but even those had their good days.

Excellent Week - James & Gabriel were excellent. Chloe's cooking was outstanding with every meal a delight. Gill had been on an Angnus gourmet weekend but Chloe surpassed that. Great set of crew/guest lots of laughter and just a generally good time. Everybody pulling their weight, Only minus was the weather with every day being a South Westerly and the need to shelter from hurricane remnants meant that a trip to the Scillies was not on. Still thoroughly enjoyed sailing the Cornwall coast.

Classic Sailing do it again! Another great Sailing trip on a classic Brixham trawler. They provide you with all the information you need to prepare for your trip and work with boat owners and crews to ensure your safety and enjoyment. I will definitely book with Classic Sailing again.

Just had an excellent day sail on the Oosterschelde out of Falmouth. After a life long fascination with tall ships I finally managed to be aboard one under sail. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip and am very impressed by the friendliness of the crew, their knowledge and abilities, and their enthusiasm.

Had a fantastic 3 days over the bank holiday sailing the 120 year old traditional Brixham trawler ‘Leader.’ Sunshine, dolphins, sunsets, gales and fresh winds on the last day that provided superb sailing. Add in fabulous food and a great crew and it was a truly memorable and thoroughly enjoyable experience. I will definitely be back!

A very disappointing trip on Lord Nelson 8/03/2018 - 18/03/2018
Unacceptable, as "Island Hopping Across the Azores" was rerouted to Gran Canaria: there was no island hopping, just a stormy route across the Altlantic. Not a single whale seen!

Also I was partnered with a severely disabled lady, deaf/blind wheelchair user, who broke her arm (day 2), and I recieived no assistance or information about her care. Despite my concern no help or support was given to me as buddy:. Both the advertised description was not fulfilled, and the care of a severely disabled/ injured stranger a nightmare: a terrible holiday.

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip on Oosterschelder, a top-sail schooner. It was fun working with the professional crew when opportunities allowed and gratifying that we were under no obligation to contribute if the conditions were difficult. One also benefited from the expertise and experience of the crew. They were always happy to answer questions. The food and social side of the trip was also excellent.

Amazing. A real once in a lifetime trip. What more can I say?

I had a fantastic voyage on Maybe, and made friends for life.
