About Neptune's Daughter – Custom Sailing Vacation Experts
Our Story
Neptune’s Daughter was founded from a shared love of the ocean and a desire to help others experience it effortlessly. What began as a dream—to make custom sailing vacations more personal, attainable, and inspiring—has grown into a boutique travel agency dedicated to bespoke yacht charters and curated on-water adventures across the globe.
Our founders envisioned a service that combines expert seamanship with personalized travel design—where every detail is handled by people who live and breathe the sea.
Today, Neptune’s Daughter connects travelers to extraordinary sailing destinations—from the British Virgin Islands and Greece to Antarctica and the Galápagos—crafting tailor-made itineraries that match each client’s sense of adventure.
Whether you’re new to sailing or a seasoned cruiser, we’ll help you plan a journey that reflects your travel style, comfort level, and curiosity for the world.
Meet the Team
Captain Nitzan Levy
Co-Founder & Managing Director
Nitzan is the driving force behind Neptune’s Daughter—a seasoned sailor, passionate traveler, and certified captain and charter expert who has spent years curating tailor-made sailing vacations for travelers seeking meaningful adventures at sea.
Her love of sailing began after her first trip through the Greek Islands, where she fell in love with the combination of good company, life close to nature, and the exhilarating sense of freedom the sea brings. Determined to make sailing an integral part of her life, she began crewing regularly—both recreationally and competitively—on her friend’s boat Bettina in Israel and throughout the Mediterranean before becoming a skipper in her own right.
Since then, Nitzan has organized and led sailing adventures across the Caribbean, Cuba, Greece, Croatia, Thailand, and the Seychelles—each one crafted with care, curiosity, and a deep respect for the sea. She now calls Jersey City, New Jersey home, where she enjoys sailing in the New York Harbor under one of the world’s most iconic skylines.
Ed Guy
Co-Founder & Technical Advisor
With decades of professional sailing and marine operations experience, Ed Guy brings precision, expertise, and a touch of good humor to every journey. A lifelong sailor, Ed first took the helm on Austin’s Lake Travis shortly after university—only to later discover that sailing was, quite literally, in his blood. (Ask him about his pirate ancestry if you have a couple of hours to spare.)
Over the years, Ed has cruised extensively with his family throughout the Northeast, from Raritan Bay to New England, across three generations of progressively longer sailboats and a handful of warmer-water charters. Once his children set their own course, Ed traded suburban life for a liveaboard lifestyle in Jersey City, where the New York Harbor is now his backyard.
Professionally trained as an engineer specializing in software and communications, he brings analytical precision to every detail, both on and off the water. When not sailing, he continues to mentor youth as an assistant scoutmaster and council volunteer.
