Sailing holidays are back on the high street!

PlainSailing.com has partnered with Kuoni UK to launch all-inclusive sailing holidays – complete with Skipper, Hostess and VIP transfers – through Kuoni stores on the UK high street!

There’s a common misconception that sailing yachts and catamarans are the preserve of the rich and famous – in fact, it’s possible for anyone to charter a beautiful boat for a week or two in the sun, and it’s a lot more affordable than you might think.  And for the 2019 season, they’re now available on the UK high street!

PlainSailing.com and Kuoni UK have developed a range of sailing holiday experiences from seven bases across the Mediterranean, including the classic cruising grounds in Greece and Croatia, but also the luxurious French Riviera (sailing into Cannes, Nice and Monte Carlo), the stunning Amalfi coast and Capri, and the exciting mountains and fjords of Montenegro.

They’re offering an innovative all-inclusive package which is only available from Kuoni stores, which includes a Skipper and Hostess as standard, along with VIP transfers, early check-in, insurance, and all fuel and mooring fees – which means customers will only have to pay for their own food, drink and souvenirs.

The whole range is designed to give holidaymakers a blissful experience on a boat, as well as offering adventure to those who seek it, new places to explore each day, authentic local restaurants to sample, and the chance to either learn the ropes or to bask in the sunshine on their own private yacht or catamaran with friends, family, a good book, or a cool drink.

No sailing experience is necessary, the boats can suit groups of up to twelve people (or more with multiple boats), and the packages offer the ultimate in relaxation.

The sailing holiday experiences are available exclusively via a Kuoni store (or find more information at www.kuoni.co.uk/sailing-holidays).

Tommy Tognarelli, founder of PlainSailing.com, said: “We’re so proud and thrilled to be working with Kuoni, who are absolute holiday travel experts in the UK.

“It’s also exciting to offer something new to the mainstream UK holiday market: we’re firm believers that anyone can go sailing, and this now gives the opportunity for us all to get off the beaten track and explore the secluded bays and private beaches of the Ionian, to find places of intrigue that you can only get to by boat, or to just enjoy the bob of the sea and the gentle lapping of the waves on your own private yacht or catamaran.  There really is nothing quite like it.

“All the itineraries we’re offering are special in their own way, but there is surely something irresistible about the chance to sail your own boat into places like Cannes, or to moor up in the Marina Piccolo off Capri – plus everyone should sail in the Ionian sea at least once in their lifetime.

“These packages include a Skipper and Hostess as standard to steer the ship, cook meals, and keep things tidy – which means that customers can really focus on relaxing, having a great time, enjoying the sun and the sea, and recharging their batteries.  It should be the ultimate sailing experience!”
