This was truly one of the most unique experiences I've ever had. We went as a group of seven for my Mother-in-Law's birthday, and Voyage didn't disappoint. This was such a top-tier way to explore the BVI.
From the start, they tailor your experience to the things you enjoy. They can keep the pace slow, pack it with activities, or strike a nice balance. They can also curate the vibe of the journey, whether family-oriented, adventurous, romantic, etc. They can even curate the food and drinks on board. You can choose a specific cuisine for your journey, or mix and match. For drinks, you can choose a standard, premium, or premium+ package, with options ranging from standard drinks to more elevated choices.
Our catamaran was the perfect size. It had 4 nicely sized rooms with comfortable beds, plenty of storage, showers, sinks, and windows to look outside. A nice dining table sat toward the back, and another table near the top of the catamaran was perfect for apps, drinks, and games. There was enough space toward the front to rest on the nets or dolphin benches. Great for seeing everything.
We stayed for 5 nights and each night was so well-planned. We spent a couple of hours sailing each day, getting in the water to snorkel, paddleboard, or rest on the lily pad, and even taking time to explore the islands and find some treasure. We always felt like we had enough food, snacks, and water the entire time we were on the water.
Captain Brett and Chef Nia are AMAZING! They were so attentive, professional, and just fun to be around. Brett is a skilled captain who knows where to find adventure, is one heck of a free diver, and can whip up some mean cocktails. He's the perfect guide above and below water (we saw him casually catching lobsters and petting sharks, just a normal day for him). We always felt safe with him at the helm. Chef Nia is unbeatable in the kitchen. Not only can she whip up Michelin-worthy meals from different cuisines out of thin air, but she does it all with so much compassion. She was such a joy to be around, and it was truly hard to go back to our home-cooked meals after hers! It was amazing swapping stories with the two of them; we felt like we've known them for a while.
All in all, we couldn't have asked for a better way to adventure through the British Virgin Islands. You will absolutely get what you pay for and more. You can rest easy knowing that this company and the people in it are here for you. I'd like to say this was a "Once-In-A-Lifetime" experience, but I know we're gonna come back.
Thank you, Nia, Brett, and the rest of the staff who make Voyage Charters what it is.

这真的是我有生以来最独特的体验之一。我们七个人一起去庆祝我岳母的生日,Voyage没有让我们失望。这绝对是探索英属维尔京群岛的最佳方式。
从一开始,他们就会根据你的喜好来定制行程。他们可以让节奏缓慢一些,也可以安排大量活动,或者两者兼顾。他们还能营造出符合你期望的旅行氛围——无论是适合家庭的、充满冒险性的,还是浪漫唯美的。他们甚至可以负责挑选船上的食物与饮品。您可以为旅程选定一种特定的菜系,也可以自由组合搭配。至于饮品,您可以选择标准版、高级版或顶级版套餐,其中的选择范围从普通饮品到更为高端的酒类应有尽有。
我们乘坐的双体船尺寸恰到好处。船上设有4间大小适中的房间,配有舒适的床铺、充足的储物空间、淋浴间、洗手池,还有可以欣赏窗外景色的窗户。船尾处还设有一张漂亮的餐桌。双体船顶部附近还有一张桌子,非常适合放置应用程序设备、饮料和各种游戏。船头处也有足够的空间,可以躺在网床上或坐在海豚形长椅上休息。视野极佳,能一览无余。
我们在船上住了5个晚上,每晚的活动安排得都恰到好处。我们每天花几个小时来航行,然后下水浮潜、划桨板,或者躺在睡莲垫上休息;甚至还抽出时间探索各个岛屿、寻找“宝藏”。我们始终觉得食物和零食都很充足。在我们乘船游玩的整个过程中,他们一直负责照料我们、为我们服务。
布雷特船长和妮娅大厨简直太棒了!他们体贴入微、专业敬业,和他们相处也特别愉快。布雷特是一位技艺精湛的船长,深知何处能找到刺激的冒险体验;他还是一位出色的自由潜水员,能调出绝妙的鸡尾酒。无论在水面之上还是水下,他都是完美的向导(我们还看到他轻松地捕捉龙虾、抚摸鲨鱼,对他来说这些都是家常便饭)。有他在掌舵,我们始终感到安心。而妮娅大厨在厨房里更是无人能敌。她不仅能凭空做出各种堪称米其林水准的佳肴,而且每一道菜都饱含着满满的温情。和她在一起真是愉快至极,吃过她做的饭之后,再吃我们自己做的家常菜简直难以接受!能和他们两人畅谈各种趣事也棒极了,我们仿佛已经认识他们许久一般。
总而言之,我们实在想不出比这更好的方式来探索英属维尔京群岛了。物有所值,甚至物超所值。您可以放心,这家公司及其员工都会竭尽全力为您服务。我本想说这是一次“一生仅有一次”的体验,但我知道我们还会再来的。
感谢Nia、Brett以及所有让Voyage Charters如此出色的员工们。
