Amazing Day Aboard the Ariadna – Cruising in Cannes France - Highly Recommend! We spent an incredible 7-hour day cruising from Cannes to the Lérins Islands aboard the Ariadna, a beautiful 46 ft yacht. Our captain, Viorel, was absolutely exceptional—skilled, friendly, and genuinely passionate about making our experience unforgettable. From the moment we stepped on board, he made everyone feel comfortable, anticipated our needs, and went above and beyond to ensure we had the perfect day. We were a group of 10, and the Ariadna was ideal for us. It has a spacious upper deck for lounging and taking in the views, a lower deck with an outdoor dining area, and plenty of room to relax between the front and upper lounge spaces. Viorel organized everything seamlessly—snorkeling, paddle boarding, and even setting up a large inflatable float with drink holders tethered to the boat. His attention to detail and calm, cheerful demeanor made the whole day effortless and fun. We ended the trip watching a beautiful sunset from the water—an unforgettable highlight of our time in the South of France. Highly recommend the Ariadna and Captain Viorel for anyone looking for the perfect Riviera yacht experience!

The trip is basically taking you directly to one stop between both islands where you spend your whole day and then you come back. For us that was quite enough though, the boat is really nice, we enjoyed the beautiful waters, had a pizza delivered to us straight from a pizza restaurant (that was in a boat nearby). Overall very nice experience. It would be nice if they also had a seabob which they didn’t.

It was a really nice day. We drove to the islands and stayed the whole day in the one of the bay’s. The Crew was really really nice and took care of everything. They were really professional and we had a lot of fun. They ordered pizza for us which we ate on the boat. In total it was a great experience and a perfect boat day.

We had a fantastic experience aboard the Ariadna. We rented the boat for an evening program, and I can confidently say it was the best choice we could have made. We enjoyed the sun and the perfect turquoise water for swimming, and to top it all off, we witnessed a breathtaking sunset at the end of the evening. It was an unforgettable afternoon spent with friends on a clean, spacious, and very comfortable boat, operated by a attentive, friendly, and professional crew. I highly recommend the Ariadna Boat! Thank you so much to the crew, Vio & Nico, and we promise to return!

We rented both the larger and the smaller Ariadna – first for a daytime trip on the bigger boat with skippers Vio and Nico, and then for an evening cruise on the smaller boat with skipper Paul. Both trips were absolutely wonderful. 🥰 The day trip on the larger boat was a fantastic experience – relaxing, smooth, and with a great crew (Vio & Nico) who made us feel very welcome. The evening trip on the smaller boat, with skipper Paul, was just as lovely, and had its own charm with the golden sunset. 🌄 During the evening cruise, we even ordered pizza from a floating “pizza boat” between Île Sainte-Marguerite and Île Saint-Honorat (just off the coast of Cannes) – a unique and very fun experience! All in all, everything was beautifully arranged and we are super happy with both trips. Highly recommended!

The crew was extremely nice and service minded and made sure that every detail was taken care of so we could enjoy the experience. We can truly recommend a charter with the Ariadne!

We had such an amazing day on the Ariana in Cannes. We had 8 adults and there was plenty of room! The boat was clean and the service exceptional. We brought a charcuterie board and sandwiches, but also had pizza from the boat that comes around! It was excellent! They also had water and soda and we brought alcohol, which they had a fridge for. It was my husbands birthday on this boat day, and it was truly perfect! I would highly recommend!

Our group of 4 had a great time with Vio and his crew. He did a great job of keeping the boat steady, we were able to stay longer than originally planned, his crew member was amazing and catered to us. The pizza delivery was great and it was overall one of the best days we have ever had! The boat was fully equipped with snorkels, a raft and a paddle board and we got to see the underwater sculptures. Could not recommend Vio enough - 10 stars!!

We found a very clean and well-kept boat. Everything is absolutely new on this boat. We were a group of 8 people but we would have had space for more. The boat has a lot of well-organized spaces, large spaces for dining, spaces for lounging as well as shaded areas. The crew is very kind, respectful and discreet. I had a wonderful day with my friends on the Ariadna boat. I highly recommend it.

The service wasn't very good. The crew didn't offer welcome snacks, but there were drinks. Important points to note: - Smoking is prohibited on the boat (only on the buoy), and this wasn't indicated in the ad. - Lack of Wi-Fi - Only background music - No towels on the boat My rating is simply due to the fact that I've done numerous charters in the area on similar boats, and the service wasn't up to scratch compared to others. Moreover, the travel time between the port of Golfe Juan and the Lérins Islands, at +45 minutes, was unwelcome, especially since we had chartered a boat two days earlier (+24m) in only 15 minutes, thus impacting our time on site... by 4 p.m. we were already packing our bags. Luckily we didn't ask to go to Saint Tropez... It's a shame, we felt like we were intruding. There were only 6 of us on board, I don't know what it would have been like if there were 10 or 12 of us. This is my first mixed review of this app...

Allow two hours for the crossing to get to the Lérins Islands at a snail's pace, so in reality there are four hours left on site and it goes by quickly, especially since the downright unpleasant skipper, who spends his day on the phone lying on the front deck of the boat! regularly reminds us that he has other clients and that we have to hurry. A very bad experience for this price, and partly in cash... I don't understand the positive comments.
