Leonardo e Alessandro sono attenti a ogni dettaglio per rendere l'intera esperienza piacevole e senza alcun problema per tutto l'equipaggio! Abbiamo visitato posti bellissimi e trascorso notti in rada indimenticabili. Senza dimenticare le nuotate la mattina appena svegli e i pasti cucinati a bordo che sono stati ampiamente sopra le mie aspettative! Leonardo dà anche ottimi consigli su dove cenare durante le notti in porto! Torneremo sicuramente nei prossimi anni a veleggiare su Kalekoy! Santo&Giulia
