What our sailors say?

Every cruise is more than a journey - it's memories that last long after you step ashore. Our participants share their stories, emotions and moments that are hard to put into words... but which we try to capture right here.

I thought it would just be a holiday. It was a journey that cleared my soul. Every sunrise on deck reminded me that you can live slower and deeper.

TrainingExpedition

Atyla is a unique and eye-catching tall ship schooner offering unforgettable sailing cruises inspired by ancient seafaring traditions. Built in 1984 using traditional techniques and a bold, unconventional design, Atyla is modeled after historic Mediterranean and Phoenician trading vessels—making her one of the most distinctive tall ships sailing today. With her powerful two-masted ketch rig and broad wooden hull, SV Atyla delivers a hands-on, wind-powered sailing experience. Guests are invited to actively participate in hoisting sails, steering the ship, and learning traditional seamanship, or simply relax on deck and enjoy the rhythm of life at sea. Every voyage is shaped by the wind, the crew, and the journey itself. Below deck, Atyla offers a warm and communal atmosphere with traditional wooden interiors, shared cabins, and a spacious mess area where meals and stories are enjoyed together. While simple, the onboard facilities are designed for comfort and authenticity, perfectly matching the ship’s philosophy of connection—to the sea, to history, and to fellow sailors. Atyla regularly sails coastal routes and international waters, participating in tall ship festivals, cultural voyages, and adventurous sailing cruises that attract travelers seeking something truly different from conventional cruising. If you’re looking to book a tall ship cruise, experience traditional sailing, or join an adventure at sea aboard a historic-style vessel, Atyla offers a rare opportunity to sail the oceans in a way few modern ships can. Step aboard and discover sailing stripped back to its essence—wind, wood, and adventure.
