**Overall, we enjoyed the experience, but there were several issues:** The Bluetooth didn’t work, and the GPS was missing. Additionally, charging 50 euros for fuel felt excessive. Following our trip, the crew took us to a technician to inspect the ventilator after it got tied with a rope accidentally during our use but obviously was not damaged. They later tried to charge us for a replacement, claiming we had damaged it. However, it was clear the issue was due to wear and tear, not our usage. We refused to pay for the ventilator and only covered the fuel, but the situation felt shady and dishonest. It left us with a bad impression.
A really great service booked in the morning and the boat was available a couple of hours later on the same day. Santorini view connected us with the boat hire team and we got a lovely 6 man boat. The guide LEO was an absolute expert and extremely thorough and helpful. The only negative was the weather the changed whilst we were out on the boat, no fault of the guide but it became extremely precarious and unfortunately the boat was powerful enough to handle the swell, even as semi experienced boat navigator managing a boat in high winds in the Aegean Sea is not for the faint hearted, so it is well worth throughly checking the forecast before booking. But in terms of the service itself, you couldn't ask for more. Our guide was awesome!
Thank you for your kind feedback.
We had a brilliant afternoon. The kids thought it was amazing. Highly recommend hiring George as a skipper. We wouldn’t have seen and done nearly as much without him. He showed us all the best swimming spots, was really friendly, professional and the kids loved him. We would definitely do this trip again.
Very straightforward from start to finish - great service from Santorini View and Santorini Blue Waves - highly recommend to anyone looking for a stress free way to enjoy Santorini’s Southern coastline. Great fun!
