If you’re lucky enough to be in Europe this summer, you can enjoy Uber’s water services and sail across the continent’s most stunning islands on a yacht, water limo, cruise, or boat.
Not all of Uber’s water services are new. The yacht saw its launch in Berlin last year and is returning this summer to the gorgeous Mediterranean island of Ibiza. On the Uber app, users can book a private yacht–the Sunseeker, to be specific–in advance for the day. The trip will last 8 hours and include a personal skipper, a bottle of champagne, and some snacks to munch on. Any transfers to or from the yacht, from anywhere in Ibiza, are also complementary.
The yachts will set sail from the Ibiza Town Marina at noon daily and can accommodate groups of up to 8 people. This experience will set you back €1600, or around $1700. The yacht service will officially start in August but is open to pre-booking on Uber Reserve beginning July 26. Just make sure to book 24 hours in advance.
There’s also a water limo service coming out in July, which Uber is touting as a “first-of-its-kind water transport service.” This one will be limited to the Venetian Lagoon in Venice and run daily between 8 AM and 8 PM. A single limo can accommodate up to 6 people, and the entire trip will cost €120, or around $130.
Uber already offers an Uber Boat service in Mykonos, but this summer, it’s expanding to include Athens, Corfu, and Santorini. Users will also be able to book an Uber Boat using the app.
If you want to travel on a budget, this one’s probably the best option. There’s an electric Uber Cruise that’s coming to Paris this summer. It will be a free ride down the Seine on a private cruise, and you can book for up to an hour with your friends. The cruise’s itinerary includes Notre Dame, Le Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower.
Uber ends its announcement by clarifying that these services depend on weather conditions and are only available for a limited time.
