We had an incredible 4-hour yacht charter with Elite Charters and it exceeded all our expectations. Our skipper, Tiago, was brilliant. He was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, pointing out local landmarks and sharing the fascinating stories behind them throughout the trip. A special mention to Leo, our deckhand, who looked after our every need. He was attentive, welcoming, and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed from start to finish. We stopped for some delicious tapas, enjoyed a swim in the beautiful water, and had great fun using the paddle board. It was the perfect balance of sightseeing, relaxation, and adventure. A huge thank you to Tiago and Leo for making our trip so memorable. We would highly recommend Elite Charters to anyone looking for a first-class yacht charter experience, and we can't wait to do it again!

Eduardo and dinis were very friendly, great with the kids and made everyone feel very welcome. They ensured we had everything we needed and more. Would definitely recommend 👌
We did a 3 hour trip on the Atlantis II with a group of 9 (2 proper adults and 7 feral teens). The boat was great, the crew was awesome, the scenery as we went up the coast was unreal. We moored up at a quiet secret beach and had lots of time for swimming, snorkling and paddle boarding. A light tapas supper got us going before the journey home. The drink flowed freely throughout. Thank you for a great trip.
We had an absolutely fabulous full day cruising with Captain Eduardo and Bruno! The Sunseeker Majestic is a beautiful and very comfortable yacht. The Algarve coastline is quite impressive, and Eduardo was skilled enough to bring our huge boat inside numerous cool caves! I was blown away by his ability to navigate the boat so carefully in tiny areas with significant waves. Eduardo and Bruno were very friendly and shared their knowledge about the region throughout the afternoon. The nibbles were tasty, and wine, beer, and prosecco were flowing all day. I worked with Olivia for weeks finalizing our arrangements. She was unbelievably patient (I had lots of questions) and very professional. I just found out she's actually the owner/founder of the company, so her amazing customer service makes a lot of sense:). I am a travel advisor with FORA, and I HIGHLY recommend you book with Elite Yacht Charters. Our private charter was the highlight of our 2-week Portugal trip! Thanks again to EYC for such a memorable and special experience.
We had the best trip! We rented the boat for 4 hours. We had Bruno and (forgive me I forget the captains name!!) there were 7 adults and 2 children aged 2 and 4. We will DEFINITELY book again!!
This was a great trip. We booked an afternoon cruise on the Sao Lourenco boat. The boat itself was immaculate, with great facilities, and the crew provided lots of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). We also had snacks. It felt very safe, with life jackets for children. We took a trip down the coast to see the caves and had a chance to jump off the boat and swim in the sea. The crew (Cristiano and ?) were both fabulous and were happy to take photos/videos of our group. This is definitely worth the price and I’d happily book it again.
Can’t speak highly enough of this company. From the lady that took the booking. The crew and the water sports guys were fantastic. Worth every penny. Nothing to much trouble for them. Saw dolphins as well
Our 5th time hiring this particular boat complete crewe Eduardo and Eric, very experienced, knowledgeable and simply can’t do enough for you. Hired the boat for the day, travelled down the coast, stopped for lunch at Evaristo for lunch then back onboard and more champagne and sightseeing. Wouldn’t hesitate to do this again.
These crooks who operate out of Villamoura took 500 Euro deposit with no intention of supplying the boat . I arrived at 2 pm as per instructions and nobody was there . It took till 4 pm to get a boat and awful experience . They are an awful untrustworthy company who should be closed down .
We had a wonderful afternoon cruise. The service and the team were outstanding. Shoutout to Edgar and his crew who made this an unforgettable experience for us. I can highly recommend them!
4th time we’ve hired the Majestic and 4th time we’ve had Edwardo as captain, this time we had the addition of Eric as ship mate and I can’t sing their praises enough. These guys are great with the kids, information on the Algarve history and keeping the drinks and snacks flowing. Every year it just get better. Will definitely be booking again next year if not before. Thanks for the greatest time guys you made it for us. Keep up the good work. Tony, Sue, Maggie and Charlie.
Hired their Sunseeker for the morning as part of a Stag do. Was slightly concerned that the boat wouldn’t be as good as the pictures on the website but it certainly was! The two guys from Champagne Cruises on the boat were also nice and friendly, they kept the drinks flowing for the whole trip and also told us places worth visiting as we cruised down the coast. One of them also dived into the water to help find a watch which had slipped off one of our group’s wrist in the sea...nice touch. All in all a great morning and would highly recommend.
We booked Majestic private hire for 8 friends celebrating a 50th birthday. This was an afternoon hire and much fun was had. The boat was absolutely stunning, the service was outstanding and the all inclusive drinks were free flowing. The hospitality really was second to none and made for a wonderful birthday celebration made extra special by the team at champagne cruises!
I must say this is the first time I am writing a review for champagne cruise, as we've been going on trips with these guys for 4 years running now! And this review was totally needed to be put out there for you all! My family and I have visited the Algarve for over ten years and we recently discovered Champagne cruises located in the vilamoura marina we normally stay in Albufiera but we decided a few years ago to try Vilamoura out! As I was saying ... we located champagne cruises at first for my fathers 60th birthday 4 years ago and champagne cruises made such an amazing job at making us feel special, luxurious and most defiantly relaxed whilst aboard. As we had such an amazing time we have came back every year since, this year we went on there Majestic Sunseeker and there standards haven't lowered the slightest over the years ! I will most defiantly carry on going with champagne cruises to make our holidays special! No other company can compare.
We loved the afternoon cruise, the drinks were always topped up and the crew members were amazing. We went for a birthday and the cake they ordered for us was incredible (chocolate). We had family from 75 to 3 years old and everyone loved it. It was a bargain for 8 people 1000 euros for the afternoon cruise, which is paid 50% on booking and then rest one week before. Highly recommend it!
The guys on the boat were amazing, kids had a brilliant time. An absolutely brilliant evening on a beautiful boat. This is probably the best experience I’ve ever done on the Algarve.
10 of us rented one of their boats for a day trip. AMAZING. We had the best day and highly recommend using these guys if in the area. Staff was great and trip went off with no issues. Drinks were included with the tour.
Just got back from a 3 hour sunset cruise.... The captain and the 1st mate were so amazing showing us around and putting up with our children..... Highly recommend them.
We had the most wonderful experience on our champagne cruise. We are 6 friends celebrating a 50th birthday. It was booked as a surprise so a couple of our party went and decorated the boat with help from crew Eric and Eduardo. We then had 3 glorious hours cruising the coastline around Vilamoura. The champagne and wine was plentiful. On the way Eric would explain interesting facts while constantly topping up our glasses. They were attentive without being in your face. 3 of our party had a swim even though the water was pretty freezing! All in all it was worth every penny and if you get the chance do it!! It was an evening to remember!!
The private boat hire is definitely a worthwhile treat - drinks are included (there isn’t any food so eat first) and the trip can be tailored in terms of how far round coastline you go, if you pull up in a particular place, for how long etc and it’s lovely having a group of you on your own rather than a public tour. Would definitely go again and happily use same company. On the boat there is a pump action toilet and a shaded seating area.
Took the sun seeker out for a afternoon cruise. Went towards Quinta Do Lago the views were amazing saw the golf course we played took in the views and enjoyed the champagne. Champagne Cruises offer a brilliant 5 star service the staff were really accommodating and made our day out spectacular!
Just returned from an amazing half term week in the Algarve . Went out on champagne cruises Sunseeker yacht for a full day trip . The boat was really clean and the crew were super friendly teaching the kids how to water ski . Water was slightly chilly but did not stop us . We had a great day out and would recommend it to everybody !
We have had an unforgettable time..Captain Bruno and partner Josua very professional and friendly..chapo guys
We had booked the yacht for 3 hours. On site we paid the fixed price of 600€. There were drinks and pastries on board. Skipper and his assistant very friendly. Unfortunately, only speak Portuguese and English. Not suitable with young children. But the coast speaks for itself! It was fun. We've seen dolphins, too. A special highlight of a holiday. Clear recommendations.
We love to go out on a luxury yacht with Captain Eduardo and the sailor Victor. We made an excellent trip and visited fantastic caves. The staff on the boat was excellent and very friendly and always helpful.
Big disappointment. We were delayed about an hour for the agency's misorientation of the departure location. Arriving on the boat, bad-humored sailor Eduardo generated intrigue and discussion throughout the day with our class. Any request we needed to negotiate. The guy kept saying they were doing his job, that he didn't care what we had negotiated at the agency; agency is one thing and they another. At the end of the tour, I went to the agency to get this photo and I was approached by the owner; instead of helping us solve the case, I was worried whether there were people in that photo or not. I'll ask for some of the money back.
We made a family trip and chose this Enterprise. Excellent choice because the crew was fantastic and the boat wonderful. Thank you to Eduardo and Diana. It's to go back to the year.
Overall everything was excellent except the check-in that I will address at the end. The boat is good within its category, clean and careful. The staff was formidable, friendly, attentive, and always motivated to provide customers with the best possible experience. The natural beauty of the Algarve, the sea and the dolphins, a good lunch and the radiant sun of late October did the rest. A very well spent day. The reservation was handled efficiently, responding quickly to the various requests made. One thing to improve...and a lot: The indication was to appear at the Champagne Cruises store at Pier Q at 09.45. This was closed, and at 09.55 it continued, which for a match scheduled for 10.00 began to be worrying. I used the phone number I had been given and a girl asked me to move to another store about 20 meters away. There he explained that the indication he had was that we would head directly to the boat and check-in there ...There I made the payment and indicated that the boat was at Pier A! Which the only alternative was to go on foot. We had walked a lot since the parking lot and now another walk...This with a 85-year-old Cover and conditioned mobility was a good start of the day!!! To charge €2,000 for a ride they have to ensure a quality Service from beginning to end because if the customer’s disposition when boarding is already negative, who pays and has to save the day is the crew.
