About this activity

In the middle part of the lake having a cruise with a Scandinavian fast sailboat as a private trip, you will feel the most unique peace on a little landlocked sea - Lake Balaton is the biggest lake in Europe, 75 km wide and 3-4 meter deep. If the weather allows, we can throw an anchor and you can swim at the best view of the Lake. Since I play this show in the last 3 years everyone rated it to the best experience they had at visiting Lake Balaton. I wish to make your trip remindable in your whole life.

What you will do

2 hours 30 minPrivate tour

We are going to sail at Lake Balaton from 3 to 30 km depending on wind power. I have a 35 feet sailboat and happy to sail with guests at Lake Balaton, from Balatonfoldvar, my hometown. I am sailing for 20 years. The boat is safe and ready to sail it from 1st of May until end of October. Professionals are more than welcome to have an unforgettable training day but happy to introduce this sport to beginners too. Life-west is provided on the boat so just please bring comfortable clothes with you on any weather conditions.
