Skippered Yachtcharter Valencia — Sit Back & Enjoy

Yes, the professioneller Skipper is inklusive in the charter price on all our Skippered Yachtcharters in Valencia. There are no hidden crew fees, no gratuity added to the Rechnung, and no surprise charges for the Kapitän's services. The all-inclusive price you see at Buchung is the price you pay — it covers the yacht, the Skipper, fuel for the standard Route, volle Versicherung, and Sicherheitsausrüstung. Our Skippers are salaried professionells who work exklusivly for BoatParty Valencia, so you can be confident that the level of service is consistently excellent. They are not freelance Kapitäns looking for tips to supplement low pay — they are well-compensated experts who echtly love their work.
