A sailing trip that suits you and your crew.
There is no rigid holiday schedule on Alfred's sailing trips. The weather, the sailing area and the crew's wishes shape the week.
If you want to learn about navigation, manoeuvres and life on board, you can be right in the middle of it. If you simply want to let go, Alfred takes the lead and provides a safe framework as skipper.

Even better together
For friends, families and students.
Whether you travel with a familiar holiday crew or university friends: a shared sailing trip creates lasting memories and can be organised flexibly.
Time together instead of a fixed programme
As a private crew, you share experiences, tasks and quiet moments — without a rigid daily schedule.
A yacht just for you
Alfred adapts the planning and daily rhythm to your family and your experience on the water.
An adventure for your own group
When several people share the fixed charter costs, attractive group rates may be possible depending on the yacht and dates.
A helpful price guide
Transparent planning and flexible pricing.
As a rough guide, previous individual places have often cost around CHF 1,350 to CHF 1,600 per person, depending on the sailing area, season, yacht and crew.
Alfred prepares an individual quotation for private groups. For groups of around five people or more, attractive per-person rates may be possible depending on the yacht, dates and sailing area.
These are guide prices, not package prices. Your personal quotation clearly lists what is included and any additional costs.
