TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR SWIMMING TRIPS
Peter, California, USA
I swam at Loreto (Baja) at the end of October 2021. It was Strel’s first year there. Beautiful and worth going there. Wildlife was magical, swimming and boating, too! Hats off to Borut for assembling a great crew. I can't wait to return!

I went on the Strel Swim-Sail Cruise trip in Turkey and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The BOAT, food, and swims were beyond what you would expect and the scenery all around was spectacular. Go do it, it is a lifetime trip.

A group of friends joined the September 2021 tour in Kas, Turkey. Best vacation I've had. The staff was extremely competent, interesting, and fun. The hillside hotel was lovely and had a delicious fresh breakfast buffet.
