ixto and Sailing

Sea versus City
There's no denying we have a weakness for sailing! Impossible to find out who of ixto's CEOs was the first to trade Berlin city air for the sea’s fresh air on weekends!

In the Same Boat

Mind you, ixto's employees love being in the same boat, regardless of how kind the weather is. Sailing's an infectious hobby – and our cruises are now very popular among our business associates, too.

More than just Stunning Views

Sailing for us is about far more than just enjoying the view. As far as ixto is concerned, team sport is a passion – and that's the way we like it!
