Who are we?
The Yacht Experience by Voile Evasion, Swiss specialist in crewed yacht charter
With twenty years' experience in yachting and cruising the world's most beautiful seas, we do everything we can to offer you an unforgettable holiday. As Swiss skippers with a passion for cruising at sea, we put our network of privileged partners at your disposal, offering you the opportunity to experience an exceptional cruise aboard the finest yachts, supervised by highly qualified crews, all within your budget.
Our services include destination advice, selection of the best partners and yachts to suit your requirements, invoicing and collection from a Swiss account, and recommendations before, during and after your cruise. Our remuneration is based on a business referral commission, so you will pay exactly the same price if you go direct to the partner with the exception that this money will be paid directly to them and not to an account in Switzerland.
Founded in 2015, Voile Evasion has become the largest sailing yacht and catamaran charter agency in French-speaking Switzerland. In 2023, to meet the needs of a certain category of our clientele, we launched The Yacht Experience, a new service specialising in luxury yacht charter with crew.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely
