Relaxing and enjoyable 2 hours of sailing with the perfect host/captain. Very reasonable prices. A must-do in Burlington.

Going sailing with Gideon on our beautiful Lake Champlain has become a "must do" request of our repeat out-of-town guests. The experience is consistently delightful. Gideon's love of sailing and his natural ease combine to create a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere, regardless of weather conditions. He strikes an appropriate balance of being the captain, gracious host, tour guide and conversationalist. Highly... More

We had a perfect day with a delightful captain. Gideon was warm, thoughtful and patient as we enjoyed a fresh wind and beautiful scenery. As an experienced San Francisco sailor, I appreciated Gidoen's quiet competence and lack of shouting orders. Although we only had a few hours to spend, we would go for most of the day next time.

Was looking for a sail late in the season and Gideon came though even with really late notice. Fantastic time and he even let everyone sail the boat. The fall scenery could not have more beautiful and the sail was a blast! The per person cost for this trip was incredibly reasonable- would definitely go again.

Gideon was a great host and patient teacher for seven sailing novices. This was a business trip "day off excursion" for work colleagues. The weather was beautiful-perfect blend of sun and wind, for our two hour long round trip jaunt to the Shelburne shore area. Don't pass up this unique opportunity on your visit to Burlington.

Gideon has a beautiful boat and loves to share his enthusiasm for sailing on beautiful Lake Champlain. Our group -- grandparents, parents, and kids -- enjoyed everything about our 2-hour excursion on a sunny evening. Everyone was comfortable and relaxed; it was fun for all ages and interests. Some of us helped with sailing and steering while others relaxed with... More

I don't know where the other positive reviews came from, but we had a very unpleasant experience with Gideon. We booked the sunset tour on August 22 and were told to meet at the dock at 6 pm. From the very beginning, Gideon was grumpy because we didn't move around on the dock (as he expected us to divine) when... More

Two hours on the lake with Gideon was the highlight of our visit to Burlington. He went out of his way to take us out given we were a little unorganized with our planning, and we are forever grateful! He offered to let us have some experience with the steering, but we opted to sit back and relax and enjoy... More
