Definitely worth to go - Definitely worth to go to this cruise. Beautiful islands, magnificent views. I would advise to take a bus trip to explore the island Aegina to see the Temple of Aphina and try delicious pistachio ice cream. Delicious buffet style food on the boat after the first stop, amazing and funny crew show makes the trip even more enjoyable. We have a lot of nice memories to keep.

The whole trip was fun... - The whole trip was fun from the boat ride to the dancing and optional tour! The pistachio ice cream on the island was amazing!

Great trip - This was a fabulous trip. I have mobility problems and use a walker. The staff on the boat were so helpful, patient and understanding. The islands were a joy to visit. The food was really plentiful, hot and tasty. I thought it was good value and well organised.

Great day out - Excellent trip visiting Hydra, Poros & Aegina. We were picked up and dropped back to our hotel. The boat was spacious and clean, food and staff great.

A lovely day out...VIP is a plus! - I don't usually leave reviews but I read so many on this day out before I booked it that I thought I should share my thoughts in the hope of helping others. Having just been to Mykonos, Corfu and Santorini prior to this tour, I wondered if I was 'over' the islands and it may have been a waste to do another island tour. I was wrong...Hydra, Poros and Aegina are gorgeous and well worth visiting. Hydra was my favourite (1h20m here). They will offer you a walking tour at an extra cost but this wasn't necessary. It is a very easy town to walk around and explore on your own - walk all the way around and up to the windmill around the left corner. Pyros isn't as busy and the lesser amount of time you are given here (50 mins) is adequate. Aegina is lovely too - we chose to do the Panoramic Nature tour and weren't disappointed. You get to see a bit of the island, the fancy houses and a lovely Monastery. Warning - When you first board the boat, you have a 3-hour trip to Hydra which is the island that is the furthest away. After that you have about an hour between each of the other islands as you are hworking your way back towards Athens with each one. Plan to sleep, catch up on social media or watch out the window during this time as it is awhile with nothing to do. The biggest question I had was to book VIP tickets or not. I decided to go for it and I was actually glad that I did. Perks - you get picked up by a shuttle bus from your Athens hotel which makes getting to the port in the morning super easy. You also have priority getting on and off the boat at the start of the trip and at each island. This may not sound like a huge deal but when there are several hundred people on board, not wasting your time shuffling along in a line to get off maximises your free time on the islands to explore and we found it really handy. VIP passengers have their own section of the boat that is set up with comfy sofas, cushions and chairs. There are a set number of people in VIP so it cannot become crowded and you have your own space that is yours for the day - it is heated or cooled too depending on the weather. Each sofa area has USB charging available so we could charge our phones along the way. On top of this, you get free soft drink, juices, tea or coffee all day, morning tea (falafel, biscuits and dip with ouzo or orange juice), a buffet lunch (chicken, fish, pasta, rice, salads and dessert - you do get this lunch even if you are not in VIP) and one of the tours offered throughout the day is free for you (either the walking tour in Hydra or the Panoramic or Cultural tours in Aegina). I know it comes down to money but if you can afford to splurge, we felt that the VIP was a nicer way to travel for the day. The general areas were crowded and if you are not on the boat early, many of the good spots are already taken. In my photos, you can see the VIP area with the sofas, the other pics are the general area - one inside and one outside on the top deck of the boat in the open seating. There is also a photo of each island. I would definitely recommend the day and VIP if you can.

Excellent - Amazing service from booking to getting off the boat. Very well organised. The only down side is not enough time on the islands. Felt like it would have been better to just visit Hydra and Aegina and have equal time on those.

Awesome experience, so much fun! - We were treated like royalty!! So many new friends, Greeks know how to party!! We saw 3 islands and heard so much about the history. UNTIL NEXT TIME.....

Wonderful day - It was great to see so many islands on one day. The entertainment was terrific. The food was not so good.

Shout out to Spuros “Amazing” staff member!! - Spuros should be noted first, he’s a fantastic member of the staff. The kindest one on the ship, hehelped us with everything and told us different key points about the islands. Must do trip when visiting Greece it was amazing to see all the islands, as well as enjoying the ship! Had a wonderful time!

find something else to do with 12 hours - this is not the cruise you're looking for - if I had it to do over again - I wouldn't… there is nothing overtly wrong with this tour - and it delivered everything that was promised. But it's 9 hours of being on a boat, and 3 hours broken up time walking around tourist shops on small islands. The islands themselves are lovely, charming and well worth a visit - probably more than a 1 hour visit is the key issue here. The ship was a bit older, but well kept, but not impressively maintained - again nothing wrong, just did not ooze "I'm fabulous". I think Hydra, Poros, and Aigina are fabulous destinations, and worthy of more than 1 hour walking around. there is an upsell to tours that are not included - this turned me and my wife off… VIP is the way to go on this trip 100% - but you need to adjust your expectations. This is _NOT_ first class or business class upgrade. This is a "make it suck less" upgrade. And the VIP lounge while nice from a point of view of more room and more comfortable couches vs. non-Vip alternatives - it was small, dark, and lacked big windows - and in December it was too cold to be outside if I did this again I would do VIP again 100% because doing this as non-VIP would be 100% drudgery…but go in with your eyes open - this is not a 1st/business class experience, it's just slightly less cattle-car'ish… food was "meh" alcohol was not included with VIP tours were "meh" - we gave up on the walking tour in Hydra the best tour was the Temple tour on Aigina - but it took the entire time while on the island so we got to do nothing else… also I would never do this tour again in December…and we had about the best you could expect for weather in december, but sooooooo many stores/shops/food was closed given the 'off season' 3 stars because the tour description is accurate, and it was still nice to visit - but not a lot was accomplished for being stuck on a boat for 9 hours and it makes for a very very long day (12 hours) I highly recommend visiting the islands in a way that you can actually spend some time on each of them: I'd suggest: Hydra for a non-car small island experience, and Aigina for more amenities and interesting stuff - Poros can probably be skipped.
