Spent two hours cruising along enjoying the scenery, a nice cold bottle of wine and conversation. Our hosts were experienced, friendly and full of great stories and information on the area. Must do while in the Kelowna area. Thanks again!

What an amazing experience on the lake with Al! It was fabulous to see his face light up as he told us some of the history of the lake.
Don’t let his humbleness fool you he is also an amazing photographer as well. If you have the opportunity ask to see some of his work!
We visited the Okanagan for the first time, during what appeared to be lake closures, flooding and icky weather. On our last full day we were looking for something to do, and trip adviser pointed us to Al and Go with the wind cruises. We called first thing in the morning and he could fit us in!
We are so happy he could.
Thank you so much Al for making what could have been a mediocre end of our trip into an amazing adventure.
Al you are a true professional and knowledgeable of the area!
We highly recommend you take a tour with Go with the Wind Cruises!

Al and Jo are the perfect hosts to a great sailboat cruise. We cruised for 2 hours in September - which was perfect! It was a beautiful day for the ride. Al and Jo were kind enough to take pictures of everyone and even let us steer the boat when sailing! Thank you again!

My husband and daughter were on a morning tour with Al. Al met us at the boat with a warm welcome. The weather was in our favour that we sailed and motored the lake. Al's knowledge and history of the area was impeccable. We had an opportunity to take the wheel. Al is a patient person. We would highly recommend this tour for everyone.
Thanks Captain Al.
Thanks Captain Al.

What a fabulous way to see the area. We took a two hour trip and, although the weather wasn't great, that didn't spoil the adventure. Even though we'd just met Al, he was so friendly and informative it felt like we'd known him for a long time. Thank you for a marvelous morning on the lake.

Al took us out for a morning trip around the lake and it was SUPERB!
He has wealth of knowledge about the area and provides a great tour with humour and information about the area. His boat is beautiful and is the most comfortable way to tour the lake in style.
Al gives you the option to sail or motor on his boat and either way it is the most relaxing way to travel.

Our family went on the 2 hour sailing tour with Al yesterday. Great, relaxing time. Beautiful scenery enhanced by Captain Al's local knowledge and great stories. Highly recommend.

Taking a 'ride' in a sailboat has been on our bucket list for sometime. We picked the perfect captain and boat to do this on. Despite the smoke in the area from the forest fires, we thoroughly enjoyed our sail with Al. He has been in the area since 1970 and had great stories and lots of history about the area to share. We thoroughly enjoyed our two hours on the water with him and look forward to sailing again!
Within a day of our sail Al had emailed us photos of our time on the boat - and you can tell by the grins on our faces how much fun we were having!
Thanks for the memories, Al - Warmly - Janice and Harry

My wife and I booked a two hour sailboat with cruise Al. We had a wonderful morning. He is a wonderful hos,t well traveled and well-versed on the local geography and sites. We really had a great time, the only regret is that the time went by too fast! We would certainly book a cruise with Al again on the future trip to Kelonwa & I would recommend his cruise to anyone else interested in spending some pleasant time out on the water.
