Amazing Day!
Our trip started with a ride from Aris, who was very friendly. We had a little extra time so at the team's suggestion he showed us around the main strip of Santorini and was very accommodating, pointing out landmarks and taking lots of pictures for us. Then we met Andreas at the dock who tendered us comfortably to the sailboat, Angelica. Angelica was in great shape and gave us plenty of room. We really enjoyed spending time with both Andreas and Dennis as they took us to several places to swim and taught us about the caldera. Later in the afternoon they expertly BBQ'd a huge spread for dinner with all sorts of tradtional Greek specialties. It was all wonderful but our favorite was the talagani cheese none of us had tried before. Andreas picked music for us based on our conversation that added to the tranquility and wonder of the experience. The sunset over Oia was as beautiful as advertised and a fantastic capstone to an incredible experience. Aris met us back at the dock and we had a great time with him again on our way back to the cable cars. Aris, Andreas & Dennis: I hope you see this so I can thank you again for such an unforgettable day!

Highlight of our Europe Trip
This sailboat cruise was the highlight of our entire Europe vacation. Everything was as advertised and even above and beyond. During booking, they asked for our food preferences and were able to accommodate all of our dietary restrictions. They picked us up directly from our hotel and allowed us to avoid making the difficult drive ourselves down to the dock. We were immediately brought out to the boat which was exactly as pictured. The captain and first mate were incredibly nice and spike clear English. The trip was customized to fit our wants and preferences. We got a very private sailing cruise to multiple beautiful locations with historical commentary from the crew. We snorkeled at multiple locations and were able to see fish. The crew made a delicious dinner right in front of us on board which was honestly the best meal of our whole trip. Finally we got to see a beautiful sunset out on the water before returning to port. Would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone traveling to Greece. It provided us with amazing memories and pictures we'll have forverer!

Awesome afternoon
We had a brilliant time out on the boat with Andrea and Phillipos. From start to finish everything was very smooth, we were picked up and dropped off very efficiently in new comfortable cars. The guys on the boat were very accommodating and our glasses were always full. They told us lots about the islands and even put the sails up for a few hours of great sailing and boy did they know how to sail. Dinner was fantastic and we left full and happy. Definitely our favourite day in Santorini. highly rate!
