Perfect Boat Day ✨

First I’d like to say Pelagos Cruises was super easy to book and very communicative. They were flexible with us when we needed to change our original date. The 5 hr day cruise was one of the high lights of our trip! Tony and George are an excellent captain and crew! They were very friendly, took care of all our needs, and gave us lots of interesting info about the island and the sites we were seeing. We saw many of the beautiful beaches from the boat. We also stopped at the hot spring for a dip. After that, we had a delicious and fresh meal prepared by Tony and George, while we stopped at Thirassia island to sun bathe and swim. We were able to see so much of the island and the surrounding islands. Definitely recommend Pelagos Cruises! Wonderful experience!

Amazing views and treated so well.

The staff all took great care of us and took special care with those members who needed extra help. With ages from 22 to 76, each one of us had a fantastic time. The views are amazing and we had a lot of fun swimming too. The traditional Greek food was tasty.

Best way to spend my birthday

I had THE BEST day with the Tony and George on a private yacht tour for my birthday. It started the moment Tony picked me up from my hotel, he was super friendly and was the best guide and captain. As we cruised along the island they pointed out areas of interest which I loved because I love learning about places where I've visited. The food was really good also and they suprised me with a big birthday cake which was so generous and nice! Overall a really amazing experience.
