  • Dear Mrs Pfeiffer and Mrs Weber,

    Best regards

    I would like to first thank you for organising the trip for my father. He has now returned to France full of great memories and happy anecdotes.

    Thank you so much for having the patience to help fulfil his dream. I will wholeheartedly recommend your company to anyone interested in cargo trips.

    Thank you so much again for everything

  • Many thanks again for my latest cargo ship experience which was wonderful.
    I enjoyed the trip on the Gerda, with Captain H. who ensured that I had my best experience to date. Also, a mention to the Chef, who made very tasty meals, also to all the crew, I can’t list all their names, unfortunately, however, all staff combined made my experience so enjoyable and I will definitely try to go on that route again to meet them again.
    I highly recommend this trip!
    You are very...
