Fabulous day with a terrific captain (Hektor). We had fun on and in the water and Hektor provided great stories both historical and mythological.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that you had such a fabulous day on the water with us. It’s especially rewarding to know that Hektor helped make your experience so memorable by sharing the rich history and fascinating mythology of Santorini while ensuring you had plenty of fun both on board and in the sea. Your kind words mean a great deal to our team. Thank you for choosing Vista Yachting during your visit to Santorini. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you onboard again for another unforgettable adventure at sea! Best regards, The Vista Yachting Team
Our tour around the Caldera was awesome! We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel, so we didn't need to worry about getting a taxi to the right spot. Our captain, Hector, was so knowledgeable about the islands, the history, the mythology, the volcano - all of it! He let us hang when we wanted to catch some sun, and cruise when we wanted to, even let one of us play DJ for the day. My group was so glad we chose this full day tour around the Caldera - it's the MOST bang for your buck and gives you a beautiful and different view of the cliffs, beaches, volcanic terrain, and rock formations that you wouldn't see up close if you were driving there and trying to see them by hiking in. By the time you factor in the cost of ground transportation, lunch, snacks, water taxi etc. to whatever you think you're planning for the day, the cost of this tour covers that and more. You're on a boat in the Aegean Sea which is better than being on a boat pretty much anywhere else. Request Hector for your captain if you can! He's awesome. Also, he builds a mean charcuterie board ;)
Thank you so much for your detailed and enthusiastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that your Santorini catamaran cruise around the Caldera was such a highlight of your trip. Captain Hector will be delighted to know how much you appreciated his knowledge and hospitality—he truly loves sharing the history and mythology of Santorini, and we agree, his charcuterie boards are legendary! 😊 It’s great to hear you found the experience such a great value, especially with the views, swimming spots, and convenience of hotel pickup and drop-off. Exploring the Caldera by sea really is the most magical way to appreciate the island’s unique beauty. We hope to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable Santorini boat tour—perhaps for a sunset cruise next time! Warm regards, The Vista Yachting Team
The captain will basically take you anywhere you want to go, and the speed of this boat allows alot of flexibility. The itenerary listed was suggested by Viator but not discussed by the captain. We didn't really do anything that was listed on the itinerary except for the sunset. We spent alot of time looking at the cliffs and the lava rock formations. We chose not to swim in the hot springs due to advice of the captain. There was no dinner provided as advertised but he did provide cheese, olives, and cold cuts salami as appetizers along with beer, wine, and soft drink selections. The high speed and waves made for a pretty bumpy ride in the open sea.
Wow! There is no better way to see the Island of Santorini! The boat was amazing but it was the hospitality of Madonna and Cleo that made our day spectacular! They showed us all the best spots, avoided the crowds, took endless pictures and kept our wine glasses full. An unforgettable experience- the sunset view for the full ride back was unbelievable. Such a wonderful day!
Thank you for the glowing review! We're delighted to hear that Madonna and Cleo made your Santorini experience spectacular. Their dedication to showing you the best spots, avoiding the crowds, and ensuring your glasses were always full truly makes a difference. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the sunset view and had an unforgettable day with us. We can't wait to welcome you back for another wonderful adventure! Warm regards, The Vista Yachting Team
July 1, 2024: With 4 cruise ships in Santorini at the same time, my wife and I are extremely happy we chose to spend our time off ship on a private speed boat tour of the Santorini caldera instead of fighting the crowd of 11,000+ tourists in Fira and Oia. We still had to take the cable car up to Fira, but we were picked up (earlier than originally scheduled) and dropped off within a short 3-5 minute walk from the cable car exit. Our boat captain, Cleovoulos, and first mate, Nefeli, were amazing and kept us away from the areas crowded with catamarans and tourist groups the entire day, which was exactly what we hoped for. Our pictures from the water were incredible and we smiled to ourselves each time we heard our fellow cruisers complain about their experience (on land) in Santorini. If you want a unique experience away from the tourist crowds, then I highly recommend spending the day on the water with “Captain Chlo” and Nefeli.
Thank you for sharing your fantastic experience with us! We're delighted to hear that you and your wife enjoyed your private speed boat tour of the Santorini caldera. It sounds like Cleovoulos and Nefeli provided an exceptional experience, steering clear of the crowded areas and allowing you to fully appreciate the beauty of Santorini from the water. We're pleased that the pick-up and drop-off arrangements were convenient, adding to the overall ease of your trip. Capturing incredible photos and having a relaxing day on the water is exactly what we aim for, and we're glad to know we met your expectations. Your kind words and recommendation mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back for another unique and memorable adventure on your next visit to Santorini! Best regards, Vista Yachting Team
It was so nice to spend the morning seeing the islands from the water. The guides were friendly and interacted well with the kids. The lunch stop on Thirasia was really good and we got there before the big crowd. The hot springs are no longer hot so that is a bit misleading. We would have preferred to do a swim stop at the White or Red Beach instead (you just drive past those with a quick stop for a photo op). Overall, a fun morning and would do it again.
Thank you Jennifer for sharing your positive overall experience on our private boat tour, with the Motoryacht and we are happy to hear that you enjoyed spending the morning exploring the island from the water, especially the kids! We really appreciate your feedback regarding the hot springs, and your suggestion for a swim stop at the White or Red Beach is duly noted; we're always looking for ways to enhance the experience.
Amazing private experience! Views and scenery were great! Staff were excellent and knowledgable. They created a perfect experience from start to finish. Music on board was perfectly chosen and they catered to any need. The dinner was also a great experience with great local food and several options.
Thank you Brandon for taking the time to share your opinion! It's great to hear that the staff ensured your satisfaction and that you enjoyed the overall exprerience! Thank you for joining us!
Captain Clio was fantastic. He navigated the open water perfectly. Penelope was also wonderful. They were both informative which provided for a very memorable trip.
Thank you so much Jamie for joining our private Motoryacht cruise! Clio and Penelope is indeed a wonderful team and great crew:) Thank you again for your kind words!
Wonderful experience. Captain and crew were informative and attentive. The Axopar was almost brand new and got us quickly to our various destinations. I'd have skipped the thermal springs stop as it was unremarkable and chilly....perhaps ask the captain to swap it out for somewhere more interesting.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We are glad to hear that you had a wonderful experience on board with our motoryacht, Axopar. and that the captain and crew were able to provide you with informative and attentive service! We appreciate your input regarding the stop at the Volcano hot springs and we understand that different passengers have varying preferences. However, your suggestion to consider alternative destinations is valuable to us, and we'll certainly take it into account for future trips. Thank you again!

Thank you Michele for your lovely review! Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we can't wait to welcome you back for more amazing experiences!
