HELM レビュー 200

Jack Jennings was excellent to work with as we planned our trip to Greece. His responses were timely and suggestions were helpful making our trip incredible! We stayed on Maestro- a beautiful catamaran. Our skipper, George, and hostess, Alex, were phenomenal. They were friendly, informative, Alex’s cooking was delicious, her food was so flavorful, the presentation was beautiful. George was amazing- he was attentive and kept his boat in tiptop shape. The two instantly became our friends- they made us feel at home and were truly wonderful hosts!

Booked my first charter to Croatia, and Helm were extremely helpful with their knowledge and advice. They helped choose the write boat for our party and provided helpful information about the area we were sailing. The team on the ground ,Adriatic Sailing, were brilliant and could not have been more helpful.
From Start to finish this trip was so smooth in all aspects. Highly recommend them for charter trips.

This was a virtually flawless and amazing sail in the Greek islands. Congratulations to Helm and to Victoria, in particular, for helping us choose amongst the myriad options for a sail for our entire family and a couple of friends. They took the time to discuss the options and helped us choose a cruise in the Greek islands to include the Cyclades and Saronic Sea. The support from Helm was absolutely flawless and included very vigorous support given to one of our boat members who had misplaced part of a passport. This required urgent mailing and coordination, and Helm staff supported this. The entire crew was excellent. Captain Stavros knew the geography extremely well after decades of experience and could put us into private and gorgeous Bays free of wind as well as direct us to the best island hikes and occasional taverna or restaurant. The boat from Vernicos charters was olde, but beautiful and well appointed and cared for. The cook was amazing and we had stunning often three course meals throughout the day and week. The support from the Hostess, and the assistant sailor was also excellent. The value was really remarkable for our group of 10 people. All in all this was a flawless trip. It was a trip of a lifetime, though we are already trying to think about how we might do a similar trip again in the not too distant future. Could not recommend Helm, Vernice’s, and everybody on this trip more highly.

Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined a more glorious trip! Amazing crew, brilliant Captain and Michelin level Chef! We’ve had perfect weather, swimming every day on private beaches with every water toy imaginable; Sea-Bobs, kayak, snorkeling, Paddleboard, etc., then onto the next island for history, culture, and fabulous little villages to explore…all carefully “scripted” by our knowledgeable, professional and deeply skilled Captain, Kostas Katsimentes!

Our Chef crafted fresh Greek cuisine on a level none of us (including my cookbook publisher and foodie husband) had experienced, consistently meal after meal. We took as many pictures of the food as we did the vistas!

Zach, this has been everything you promised and then some. I am forever indebted to you for making my birthday the most spectacular week of my life. And that is not an exaggeration. My friends (all first class world travelers) concur, this experience has been magnificent. I will be back next year, and every year after, on the this same sailboat and with this same experienced crew, to discover yet another sampling of Grecian islands!

You are a man of your word and have enriched our lives! Thank you.

Working with Zach at Helm.yt was a great experience! 5 stars! He set us up with a great boat after back and forth several times as we figured out what we wanted. He was always friendly and generous with his time as our trip and itinerary changed shape during the planning process. He set us up with excellent recommendations, and took care of the logistics for us to have an awesome, memorable, and really special vacation. Definitely recommend and hope to work with them again!

Helm was a great company to deal with and made our first yacht charter an easy and enjoyable experience. Rhys was a great help and worked with us to find the best options for our holiday. He was knowledgeable about each. Good advice too!

We booked a yacht trip at the very last minute ( 4 days before ) and this company were amazing from the first enquiry to the very last detail
Maddie was our rep and she extremely quick to respond
Answered all our questions promptly and gave us great advice
We would definitely use Helm again for our next sailing vacation
We had an amazing time

Beyond our expectations. Was a fantastic trip.

We enjoyed working with Helm! Libby worked very hard to find the right boat and trip for our group of 8 and patiently answered all of our questions. We met with Libby several times, and each time, she was prepared and professional. We would book with Libby at Helm again!

We booked a weeks sailing in Greece with Helm Yachting, they were great to deal with, informative, very helpful and very very patient with me. I managed to book most things up front, skipper, host and pre order food and drink so I didn't have to carry lots of Euros to pay in cash on arrival. They used Octopus Yachting who were again very helpful and had no problems boarding the boat. We had the best skipper and host who looked after us beautifully and cooked us the most amazing food, our skipper even caught our dinner on one occasion, they also made me the most incredible birthday cake, recommended things to see and on each island and booked Taxi's to take us wait and return when we needed it. We ate in the best local restaurants along with our crew and found everyone absolutely lovely and great fun. The weather was up and down but we didn't care it was so relaxing we even made the most of the sand storm. Would highly recommend both Helm and Octopus along with our Skipper Nikos and our host Andreas.

We booked an impromptu trip to Greece for Spring Break and decided to stay an extra week to explore. After a Google search and dealing with other companies whose only options were three times the price, I was able to talk to Ed at HELM and they were able to find us an amazing boat for an amazing price. Being offseason, our options were limited but HELM was able to put a charter together that optimized our trip. We literally finalized the trip a week before we were to get on the boat. The provider was top notch and had a brand new boat. Skipper and Host went above and beyond and were grateful for their relationship with HELM. Already planning our next charter and will absolutely be working with Ed and HELM.

Had an amazing 7-night trip in Mauritius! Huge thanks to Victoria and the team for making the booking seemless experience Would highly recommend Helm and will be doing another trip with them!

We just finished up a 7 day charter in the BVI's and could not have had a better time! We started planning this trip about a year ago and Helm charters was so helpful and patient with my many questions along the way. We loved our boat and the crew and highly recommend Helm for boat charters. We hope to plan another adventure with Helm in the future.

HELM were great. We dealt with Zach and Victoria who were helpful, responsive and knowledgeable.
Next time we will go straight to HELM rather than considering multiple brokers.

Put it this way, when asked how it went by the team, this is what I sent back:

"I kid you not - It was the single greatest experience of my life. I bloody loved it.

Send me a link for a public review and consider it done."

What a time!!! 12 people (4 adult couple, 2 young adult couples) in a Bali 48 for a week. All went very smoothly. One key was all dinners were off the boat. Libby got us on the right boat despite me pulling the trigger late.

Thank you!!!

Great one week yacht charter out of Phuket Yacht Haven with Island Spirit arranged through Helm.yt. Charter was very well organised and coordinated between Island Spirit and Helm.yt. Phang Nga Bay, Thailand is a great place to sail. Many thanks for all your effort and assistance.

Helm and Libby found us the best Cats and Crew in the BVIs! It's really the details that separate the good from great inside of an experience. I was impressed with the ability to curate a very unique voyage with a ton of special requests. I was genuinely impressed every single day!

I had an incredible 1-week yacht charter experience with Helm! The customer service was exceptional, and I must give a special shout-out to Victoria for helping me book this unforgettable adventure. From start to finish, the entire journey was smooth and filled with luxurious moments. The yacht was top-notch, the skipper and cook were attentive, and the destinations we visited were breathtaking. I can't recommend Helm enough for anyone seeking a truly remarkable yachting experience. Thank you, Victoria, and the entire team at Helm!

Our yacht trip booked through Victoria was such a smooth ride and a great experience! We booked a one-week chartered yacht through Helm, and they were such a great broker. The concept is brilliant, in stead of contacting lots of different owners to figure out what we wanted to do, Helm had several prepared suggestions, knew where we could easily fly to, and guided us well through any questions that we had along the way. 10/10 recommend!
