They should write in the description that there will be 60-70 people on board. We barely had seats, had to squeeze next to cuddling couples. They also advertised “alcoholic drinks and snacks” but only one drink options was offered and it was a sugary rum punch. The snacks offered were just bread sticks and a few dips. There was one stop for a swim. Ultimately, the issue was how many people they squeezed onto one boat. It was obvious they just wanted to make most money possible but it’s not comfortable for guests.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. As mentioned on our communication materials, our cruises take place on maxi catamarans, and all details — including passenger capacities — are available on our website amccapegrace.com. Some of our cruises are more popular than others and can sell out, especially at this time of year. We also offer many other cruises that might be better suited to the experience you’re looking for. For the snacks and drinks, we provide an aperitif-style service as advertised, but we take note of your remarks and will share them with our team for consideration. We do hope to welcome you again on board for one of our other experiences, perhaps at a less busy time, so you can enjoy a cruise more in line with your preferences.
To escape. Strictly no interest unless you want to spend 4 hours with music and bands abusing the (bad) planter, the idea being to get the Mood. Two hours of anchorage just a few steps from a beach (might as well go by car) for a reduced cruising time. At €30 , it looks like “nice activity without pretensions”. At 75€, it’s no. At this price, book yourself deckchairs on a pretty private beach: the experience will be much more pleasant.
Nous sommes désolés que votre expérience n’ait pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Nos sorties combinent en effet navigation et temps de mouillage pour permettre aux passagers de profiter pleinement. Nous regrettons toutefois que vous alliez jusqu’à dire « à fuir », une formulation que nous trouvons excessive au regard des retours majoritairement positifs de nos passagers. Nous espérons avoir l’occasion de vous accueillir sur une autre de nos formules, peut-être plus adaptée à vos envies.
The staff was pleasant. They had drinks and snacks for the guest. It ride was beautiful. Getting to to enjoy the mediterráneo water was perfect.
Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the cruise, the service on board, and of course the beauty of the Mediterranean. We hope to see you again soon for another great experience at sea with us !
