The best cruise ever!!! The crew were so lovely too!!
Superb experience that we chose to conclude our stay in Athens. The barbecue was delicious, and George the Captain was very nice. What we appreciated less: the somewhat outdated snorkeling masks and the fact that we chose the French language for the audio guide during the booking, and the crew did not speak a word of French... Otherwise, everything else was excellent.

The tour was chill. We docked and swam. The food was absolutely great! We were with another small group. We had time by ourselves and also did some chatting part of the time w the other group. The men running the boat kept making sure we had a nice time. They continuously asked if we needed anything. We took cool pics at sunset too

An absolute great time on a traditional Greek wood boat with great food, hospitality, and vibe! George, Tina, and Mike hooked it up! Great prep information, Tina did a good job at giving us meetup location and host of the excursion! George did a great job at grilling, and taking us to our swim spot, while Tina and Mike prepped the sides! Easy coasting, and calm enough water to not worry about sea sickness too much!

The crew were really helpful, the boat was clean and comfie, plus the BBQ was good. 5 hours at sea, saw some sites and ate food on the waves. There were 8 people on our trip, so the boat didn't feel full and there was lots of room to.mive around. Plenty of free drinks, including alcohol, as you wanted. Really enjoyed the trip and recommend.
