A beautiful day sailing with Pierre and Joyce in the French Riviera. The experience is authentic and the scenery mesmerizing. My favorite part was actively participating in setting the sails, pulling the ropes, and even steering the sailboat -- much harder than it looks. The lunch was also very delicious, with homemade bread and cheese. The atmosphere was open and friendly. Overall, it was a great experience, one that I will not forget.

We were looking for a sailing experience on a sporty boat. On the day of our journey there were 10 guests and three crew members. We all introduced ourselves, we mingled well, enjoyed the Mediterranean waters sailing, snorkeling, swimming and ate delicious home-baked bread, local foods and Cote d’Azur recipes. We’ll return for another day of Folly Too!

A very nice way to explore Cannes from the sea side. Pierre & Joyce, the two captains, did all the could and much more ... to provide a good atmosphere among the 3 different families aboard, speaking french, english, spanish ....excellent food and very good humor. If you like light sailing you should try Folly Too. Five Stars !

We stayed for two weeks in France and this was the best experience! My husband and I along with two friends spent the afternoon on the Folly Too. Captain Joyce and Pierre were the most wonderful hosts! All of the reviews I have read were spot on! Our afternoon was incredibly memorable. By the time we left we were ready to sail around the world with our new found friends!

This is a MUST DO if you are going to Cannes! Pierre and Joyce are amazing hosts! We all learned a little about sailing and the lunch that Joyce prepared was amazing. Pierre bakes the most fantastic bread as well! It was the highlight of our trip to France! (including 3 days in Paris!)

Even if he tells you by phone that your reservation is ok, the owner Pierrot is not reliable at all.. Be very carefull.

we kept your reservation for 10 people open for 3 days with your promises to give a deposit and pass by which you only did the night before; Due to many other people wanting to sail and not having a firm reservation from you we had no option but to cancel

Looking to try something new, we booked a day trip on the Folly Too for our family of 5 (3 kids ages 10, 9 and 6). We joined a family of 4 from Poland for a lovely day of sailing. Pierre was a tremendous host, involving the children in a variety of activities from swinging off the boat in a sling to taking turns at the helm and snorkeling. The lunch provided was magnificent - food, simply prepared, and quite possibly one of the best meals we have enjoyed here. Of course, the setting is hard to beat. This is definitely a great way to spend a day - the kids asked to return the following day!

The other day I found my Folly Two tee-shirt I bought about 10 years on one of the many trips my wife and I take to France to buy antiques. We had just finished packing a 40ft container of antiques in Lyon and decided to spend our last 3 days in Cannes.
We saw the Folly Two arriving late afternoon one day and saw the very happy passenger/crew. Standing around the dock we could hear the great reviews of their trip and decided to book the next afternoon. It was one of the best decisions we made. What a wonderful pair of captains. We had a wonderful experience, great views, and camaraderie.
Pierre may remember as we approached the dock on return he made a point that I not drop the gaff hook.......which I promptly did.......straight to the bottom of the marina. I offered to dive in and retrieve the hook but he insisted on doing it.
It has been a warm memory all these years and I am happy to have found the tee shirt with those memories. For those who like the water and excitement we have also taken 6 or 7 self-hire canal boat trips for a week at a time. Every itinerary has been full of relaxation, exciting work doing the locks, and great sights.
We highly reccomend an afternoon on the Folly Two. We didn't have a choice of Trip Advisor dates of our trip as it was so long ago but I can see the trip and service is still as great as back when went. Ed & Charlene

We have been sailing with Pierre and Joyce for 10 years now. Around 95 euro per adult for the day from 10:30 am to 6pm including lunch with wine, it is the best value anywhere. It is a great way to spend the day when the weather is good, but it is even better when the wind is strong and you have to put on oilskins. Then it is pure sailing ;-) if you have never sailed on a yacht before this is perhaps the best introduction.

I’m with a group of 7 people and would like to know whether you have any free days from the 4th - 7th September inclusive of both for a full days sailing with you?
My wife and I did a similar Trip in Majorca and would also like to know what your policies are on us bringing our own drinks as lunch looks very good from your pictures or do you sell drinks yourself on board?
If there are 7 of us would this fill the boat?
I look forward to hearing from you
Yours

Merci

Not sure what algorithm directed this question to me, but I am back in LA and reviewed the Folly Too as a guest who had a great time--not sure how I would know Day-to-Day availability on the boat.
Sorry!
