Highlight of our trip
We were recently all over Italy and Greece on a cruise and the Catamaran trip in Santorini was our favorite thing we did! Santorini View worked with me to find us an option that would work with our limited time in port and assure we made it to our ship on time. We booked a private sunset cruise on a catamaran. We had three adults and 3 kids in our group. The communication with the provider (Spiridakos) was amazing as well. I was able to easily update them on our arrival time as we were getting into port. They have very clear instructions on how to find their office. Once aboard the catamaran we were treated like royalty. The crew of three made sure we were all comfortable and had plenty of drinks. They gave us some options of where we could stop and we agreed on a path. We stoped at a few spots for swimming and snorkeling (all gear provided) and it was amazing. Crystal clear water and lots of fish! We stopped at a great spot and anchored for lunch. The crew prepared an out of this world meal, one of the best we had on the entire trip! We finished the afternoon with a slow ride back to our port as we took in beautiful sunset views! Oh and the crew were amazing at taking photographs of us, always offering to take pictures of our group and making sure we got the best shots. Sailing around the calderas is an amazing way to get a view of Santorini! And the crew was so knowledgeable about the island and took time to explain what we were seeing as we passed different locations. I can’t say enough good things about this excursion and would 100% recommend to anyone in Santorini.

Beautiful day in Santorini
We can't say enough about helpful Santorini View was when making plans for a shore excursion. They went above and beyond to make arrangements so that we could be picked up at the same port that the cruise tender dropped us off, so that our parents didn't have to wait in line for the cable cars. The excursion itself was magnificent! Spiridakos Sailing Cruises are excellent from the wonderful crew to the delicious meal prepared for us. We highly, highly recommend!
