We went for a family day out, our kids are aged 5, 6, 11. They thoroughly enjoyed the day. Staff are very friendly/welcoming. The food was very nice. ( We are vegetarian and this wasn’t a problem.) They did have life jackets for the kids but we had packed our own ones for the holiday anyway (as we know they fit) The whole trip was very relaxed.

We had a wonderful trip travelling along the coast. We stopped in two different places for a swim and enjoyed a delicious lunch at the second stop. Snorkel gear provided but no fishing rods as mentioned in the add. Otherwise it was a great trip!

This experience was wonderful! Our captain was very friendly, and Niki our hostess was BEYOND amazing. Her food was also to die for! 10 out of 10 would recommend.

A wonderful experience such welcoming hosts made for a perfect last day in Athens! Thanks very much!

Charming cruise in small groups. Very caring and extremely kind crew. To do.
