“Angela was the best person there staff all over where amazing, DJ he was very aware of the crowd he had and what he should play for us. Food was pretty standard. One thing I would change was the extending the time we had for jumping in the water. To sum ul the experience was amazing especially bc of the staff. We had little problem with our bathing suit and staff helped up with finding some saving kit so we could repair it. Everything up to standards, I would recommend it to everybody.”

“Roberto explained the itinerary for the day and boat safety to us nice and clear. During the trip, the staffs were very friendly and proactive to ask if we want to drink sth and to offer help for sunset photos. The boat is clean and tidy. The only thing I was unhappy about the trip was the lunch. The organisation was bad, sausage was the only meat option, food was not enough for 18pax (My partner & I can only share one sausage).”

“Most of the day we were able to enjoy the experience. Unfortunately there were 3 things that brought the mood down for us. However they were not the cruise crews fault. 1) there was a child Roaming around getting into trouble because was not being watched by parents and by the end of the cruise, a crew member was waching him full time for his safety and also to keep out of trouble. 2) there was a passenger that could not swim and had a panic in the water.

“Great afternoon/early evening cruise. We were picked up from our hotel. Driver messaged to say that he was there. Dropped off at the harbour and shown where boat was. Met by very friendly crew who helped us on board. Shared a very enjoyable sail with some lovely fellow travellers. Stopped for a swim off a small island and then were given a light bbq meal. Plenty soft and alcoholic drinks available. We then headed slowly back to the marina rather than going to a second stop off point to swim as the wind had got up by then. Saw a beautiful sunset and got some lovely photos. Taken back to…”

The cruise was fast and smooth, and everything was timed perfectly. This was most certainly the best experience of our trip to Greece. George and Nikos tailored the cruise to our needs and took us to places where all could have fun. Greatly recommended.”
