Best experience with the best boat & crew!

This was our first time on a sailboat and boy was it thrilling! First of all, the sailboat was really clean and comfortable. It was very impressive! The crew were incredible! Thakis & Nasia were the perfect crew for our group of 3. They were very welcoming and felt like we made new friends at the end of the trip. Thakis is an experienced and well trained captain, and his first mate is equally professional. They catered to our every need, and provided great historical & geographic lessons on the islands. They truly made our day trip memorable!

Amazing experience

I cannot recommend this trip enough. From the outset of the booking, the company were very communicative via email and I found it easy to manage the booking via their online portal. On the day, I called up to check everything was ok with the booking and got through to someone straight away. The transfers, boat, food and drinks were all exceptional. We saw quite a few boats going out at the same time as us and they were quite crowded with multiple groups on the same boat - it was definitely worth paying to have a private trip. The crew were also fantastic; they were clearly very experienced sailors but they were also great hosts and tour guides. We had a beautiful meal as the sun was starting to set and then watched it go down as we headed back towards the port. We didn’t want for anything whilst on board; they provided snorkelling and swimming equipment and also kept us topped up with food and drinks. It was a very special day and one we won’t forget. Thank you so much.
