We welcome individual voyagers and youth groups, and recognise the very different needs of both, but for everyone we offer an unforgettable experience aboard a unique historic sailing vessel.

For friends and supporters, there are very popular day-sails - usually out of Lowestoft or Ipswich - with morning coffee, lunch and afternoon tea included. Current day-sailing opportunities are listed below. For larger parties with more time, and subject to other operational commitments, we offer affordable voyages with good hospitality, and interesting itineraries.

The sail training programme for young people, including those who are disadvantaged, is operated with our partners, the Cirdan Sailing Trust. Thus, "Excelsior" is part of the largest fleet of sail training vessels in the UK. Click here to find out more.
