As advertised on Trip Advisor. We were in capable hands with Set Sails. Kudos to our contact person on what’s app Olga and the capable and professional boat crew of Dimitrios and Spiros. If you have a fantasize of sailing around the Mediterranean on a personal yacht this is great teaser trip. 1 hour sail to the island and 1 hour back with the rest of the time enjoying lunch, paddle boarding, snorkeling and swimming. Great day. Bring sunscreen !
Very beautiful places, nice and comfortable trip.
We had a very nice time! Our guides Nikos, Constantina and Vaso were very nice and welcoming. Very good value for money. We recommend anyone to try this experience.
Unbelievable experience. The coolness of the sea, the wind, the pleasant company of skiers George and Penelope and the magical landscape of the destination, make this experience a must for those who visit Heraklion. It impressed me that Greeks are a minority in sailing escape. I hope that changes. The cost is insignificant in front of the memories it leaves. Spread it!
We had a wonderful day. Staff were professional, friendly and kind. The meal was delicious. We enjoyed the excursion and would highly recommend.
Superb!!! It was a fantastic experience, and a good exchange among friends. Thank you very much for this suspended moment
We had the best time on our afternoon sail. The guides were professional and fun. It was a highlight for our whole family.
Awesome way to start the day! Plenty of time to still go to afternoon or evening activities! It was a lot of fun!
Costas and Nikos, two top-notch guides. Nikos came to pick us up at the meeting point with a very friendly introduction. They took great care of us and especially gave some advice for me, as I easily get seasick.... The crossing was done in a great atmosphere; we were 5 + 3 really cute young American and English girls. Costas is a great captain with that characteristic warmth of the people from Greece and Crete. What a feeling of freedom aboard this superb sailboat! Upon arrival at Dia Island, we had a good time swimming with masks, paddleboarding in crystal-clear water, and listening to Costas explain the history of this place! Then Nikos got to the stove to prepare a small meal that we enjoyed on board in this really cool atmosphere with a little drink... The return took place under the sunset and this lovely little breeze... and not even a hint of seasickness! Kudos to these two super friendly local sailors. We loved this experience.... Thank you so much!
We had the most incredible boat trip in Greece! From the moment we stepped on board, the crew was exceptionally professional, welcoming, and attentive. They made sure we had everything we need and created such a warm, relaxed atmosphere. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, authentic, and beautifully prepared. Combined with the great selection of drinks and alcohol, it was the perfect companion to the stunning views. If you are looking for a perfect, hassle-free day on the water with amazing hospitality, this is definitely it. 10/10!
